To attach the Toro Wheel Horse 79401 Bagger, first ensure the lawn tractor is off and secure. Align the bagger bracket with the rear hitch plate and secure it using the provided bolts. Attach the bagger chute to the discharge opening, ensuring it is tightly fitted, and secure the bagger bags to the frame.
First, check if the bagger chute is clogged with grass clippings. Clear any blockages. Ensure the blades are sharp and that the bagger is properly attached. Finally, make sure you are mowing at the recommended speed for effective grass collection.
Regularly inspect the bagger for wear and tear. Clean the chute and bags after each use to prevent clogging. Check for any loose bolts and ensure all components are securely fastened. Store it in a dry place to avoid deterioration.
To prevent clogging, ensure you mow in dry conditions as wet grass can easily clog the chute. Avoid mowing overgrown grass in one pass; instead, mow in stages. Regularly clean the chute to prevent buildup.
Remove the bags from the bagger frame and empty them completely. Use a brush or air blower to remove any remaining debris. If needed, wash the bags with water and mild soap, then let them dry completely before reattaching.
The Toro Wheel Horse 79401 Bagger is specifically designed for compatibility with certain Toro models. Refer to the user manual for a list of compatible models, and consult with a Toro dealer if unsure.
Inspect the damage to determine whether it can be repaired. Small dents and bends might be fixable, but significant damage may require replacement of the frame. Contact Toro customer support for guidance on replacement parts.
Uneven filling can occur if the chute is partially blocked or if the mower deck is not level. Clear any blockages and ensure the mower deck is set to an even height. Also, verify that the air vent on the bag is not obstructed.
Clean the bagger thoroughly, removing all grass clippings and debris. Ensure it is completely dry before storing. Disassemble if necessary and store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
Ensure that the bags are not overloaded during use, as this can cause premature wear. Regularly clean and inspect the bags for small tears or damage. Consider reinforcing weak areas with patch kits or replace them if necessary.
