Introduction
Read this manual carefully to learn how to operate and
maintain your product properly. The information in this
manual can help you and others avoid injury and product
damage. Although Toro designs and produces safe
products, you are responsible for operating the product
properly and safely.
Whenever you need service, genuine Toro parts, or
additional information, contact an Authorized Service
Dealer or Toro Customer Service and have the model and
serial numbers of your product ready. Figure 1 illustrates
the location of the model and serial numbers on the
product.

This manual identifies potential hazards and has special
safety messages that help you and others avoid personal
injury and even death. Danger, Warning, and Caution are
signal words used to identify the level of hazard.
However, regardless of the hazard, be extremely careful.
Danger signals an extreme hazard that will cause serious
injury or death if you do not follow the recommended
precautions.
Warning signals a hazard that may cause serious injury or
death if you do not follow the recommended precautions.
3
Caution signals a hazard that may cause minor or
moderate injury if you do not follow the recommended
precautions.
This manual uses two other words to highlight
information. Important calls attention to special
mechanical information and Note: emphasizes general
information worthy of special attention.
Safety
The following list contains safety information specific to
Toro products and other safety information you must
know.
Become familiar with the safe operation of the
equipment, with the operator controls, and safety
signs.
Use extra care with grass catchers or other
attachments. These can change the operating
characteristics and the stability of the machine.
Do not use a grass catcher on steep slopes. A heavy
grass catcher could cause loss of control or overturn
the machine.
Slow down and use extra care on hillsides. Be sure to
travel in the recommended direction on hillsides. Turf
conditions can affect the machine’s stability. Use
extreme caution while operating near drop–offs.
Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do
not make sudden changes in speed, directions or
turning.
The grass catcher can obstruct the view to the rear.
Use extra care when operating in reverse.
Use care when loading or unloading the machine into a
trailer or truck
Never operate with the discharge deflector raised or
removed and never altered, unless using a grass
catcher or mulching baffles.
Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. Do not
make adjustments with the engine running.
Stop on level ground, disengage drives, set the parking
brake, shut off the engine before leaving the operators
position for any reason including emptying the grass
catcher or unclogging the chute.
If you remove the grass catcher, be sure to install any
discharge deflector or guard that might have been
removed to install the grass catcher. Do not operate the
mower without either the entire grass catcher or the
grass deflector in place.
Turn off the engine and wait for all moving parts to
stop before removing the grass catcher or
unclogging the chute.
Do not use your hands to unclog the chute, blower or
bagger.
Do not leave grass in grass catcher for extended
periods of time.
Grass catcher components are subject to wear, damage
and deterioration, which could expose moving parts or
allow objects to be thrown. Frequently check
components and replace with manufacturers
recommended parts, when necessary.

Before Installation
Prepare the Mower
Perform the following procedure to prepare the mower for
attaching the blower and finishing kit.
1. Disengage the PTO, move the motion control levers to
the neutral locked position and set the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
3. Clean the mower of any debris on the deck or rear of
mower to ease installation.
Positioning the Flow Baffle
The following figures are only recommendations for use.
Adjustments will vary by grass type, moisture content,
and height of grass. The middle position or Position B is
recommended for bagging.
Note: If the engine power draws down and the mower
ground speed is the same, open up the baffle.
Position A
This is the full rear position. The suggested use for this
position is a follows.
Use for short, light grass mowing conditions.
Use in dry conditions.
For smaller grass clippings.
Propels grass clippings farther away from the mower.
Full Rearward Position

Position C
This is the full open position. The suggested use for this
position is as follows.
Use in tall, dense grass mowing conditions.
Use in wet conditions.
Lowers the engine power consumption.
Allows increased ground speed in heavy conditions.
This position is similar to the benefits of the Toro SFS
mower.

Installing the Caster Weights
The bagger adds a lot of weight to the rear of the
machine and may cause an unstable condition
which could result in a loss of control.
Install the front caster weights and top weights.
Caution
1. Place a caster weight on the front caster and install the
U–bolt through the caster weight (Fig. 27).

Step
No parts needed for this step.
Adjusting the Parking Brake
Check the parking brake for proper adjustment.
Important It is necessary to adjust and check the
proper function of the brake due to the added weight of
the bagger to the unit.
1. Disengage the brake lever (lever down).
2. Measure the length of the spring. The measurement
should be 2–5/8 inch (67 mm) between the washers
(Fig. 30).

3. If adjustment is necessary, loosen the jam nut below
the spring and adjust the nut directly below the spring
(Fig. 30).
4. Turn the nut until the correct measurement is obtained.
Turn the nut clockwise to shorten the spring length and
turn them counterclockwise to lengthen the spring.
5. Tighten the two nuts, below the spring, together and
repeat on the opposite side of the machine.
6. Engage the parking brake (lever up).
7. Measure the distance between the trunnion roller and
the collar on brake rod. The measurement needs be
5/16 inch (8 mm) (Fig. 30).
8. If adjustment is necessary, loosen the jam nut directly
next to the yoke. Turn the nuts below the spring until
the correct measurement is obtained (Fig. 30).
9. Tighten the jam nut next to the yoke and repeat on the
opposite side of the machine.

Operation
Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine
from the normal operating position.
Important Set the parking brake when leaving the
machine unattended, even for just a few minutes.
To avoid personal injury, follow these procedures:
Become familiar with all operating and safety
instructions in the operator’s manual for your
mower before using this attachment.
Never remove the bagger or bagger tubes while
the engine is running.
Always turn the engine off and wait for all
moving parts to stop before clearing an
obstruction from the bagging system.
Never do maintenance or repairs while the
engine is running.
Set the parking brake before clearing an
obstruction from the bagging system and before
any maintenance.
Warning
Without the grass deflector, bagger tubes or
complete bagger assembly mounted in place, you
and others are exposed to blade contact and
thrown debris. Contact with the rotating mower
blade(s) and thrown debris will cause injury or
death.
Always move the grass deflector into position
when removing the bagger and changing to side
discharge mode.
If the grass deflector is ever damaged, replace
it immediately. The grass deflector routes
material down toward the turf.
Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
Never try to clear the discharge area or mower
blades unless you move the power take off
(PTO) to off and rotate the ignition key to off.
Turn off the engine before unclogging the
discharge chute.
Warning
Children or bystanders may be injured if they
move or attempt to operate the machine while it is
unattended.
Always remove the ignition key and set the
parking brake when leaving the machine
unattended, even for just a few minutes.
Caution
Emptying the Grass Bags
Grass bags are heavy when full. Be careful when lifting
or handling a grass bag that is full.
1. Disengage the PTO and set the parking brake.
2. Unlatch the bagger latches (Fig. 17).
3. Open the bagger hood.
4. Compress the debris into the bags. With both hands,
lift up on the bag and unhook it from the bagger
bracket.
5. Grab the handle on the bottom of the bag and tip it
over to empty the bag (Fig. 31).
