ner.

11.5 Emptying the Grass Catcher
Box
The flow of air generated by the blade raises
level indicator (1). The flow of air stops when the
grass catcher box is full. If the flow of air is too
low, level indicator (1) returns to its resting state.
This is a prompt to empty grass catcher box (2).
The functionality of level indicator (1) is restricted
if the flow of air is impaired. External influences
such as wet, dense or high grass, low cutting
height, contamination or the like can impair the
flow of air and the functionality of level indica‐
tor (1).
