Twin Bag
Grass Collector
The Model 190-180 and 190-182 Twin Bag Grass Collec-
tor is a grass collection system designed for use on all
MTD 38”, 42” and 46” lawn tractors.
The instructions in this manual are divided into sections.
Carefully read all sections pertaining to your model of
rider, and study the illustrations to ensure proper installa-
tion and usage of this attachment. Read and observe all
WARNING, NOTES and IMPORTANT statements. They
are included to provide for the protection of the equip-
ment installer and user, and to ensure the prolonged
service life of the equipment.
NOTE: References to LEFT and RIGHT indicate the left
and right sides of the tractor when facing forward in the
operator’s position. Reference to the FRONT indicates
the grille end; to the REAR, the rear end of the rider.
Determine The Model
of Your Rider
Since this manual is designed for installation of your new
bagger on several different rider units, it is important
for you to determine which model of rider you have.
Therefore you will know which set of instructions in the
following pages to follow.
To determine which model of rider you have, you will
need to locate the rider’s model plate, located under the
seat, as in Fig. 1-1. Simply flip the seat up and locate the
model plate, which will consist of an 11 digit/letter model
number and a serial number. For ease in this installation
and for future use, copy your rider’s model number &
serial number below now:
Rider Model Number:__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
Rider Serial Number:_________________________
The 5th, 6th & 7th numbers from the left in your model
number determine your rider’s model series. See Fig.
1-2.
When you fill in your model number in the space above,
the actual model series number should fall into the gray
shaded area.
Now that you have determined what model rider you are
attaching this grass bag collection system to, follow the
instructions on the following pages according to your
model of rider.
NOTE:
References to LEFT
and RIGHT indicate the
left and right sides of
the tractor when facing
forward in the operator’s
position. Reference to
the FRONT indicates the
grille end; to the REAR,
the rear end of the rider.

NOTE:
If your tractor is
equipped with a 46”
cutting deck, three
2-in-1 cutting blades
are included with
this kit. For proper
bagging performance,
install these blades on
your tractor using the
following instructions.
NOTE:
The hex flange nut
has a normal (right-
handed) thread
pattern. Do NOT
attempt to force the
nut in the incorrect
direction. Doing so
may damage the
nut and create a
safety hazard.

Attaching The Blades
NOTE: If your tractor is equipped with a 46” cutting deck,
three 2-in-1 cutting blades are included with this kit. For
improved bagging performance, install these blades on
your tractor using the following instructions.
Remove the blades from your tractor’s cutting deck as
follows:
1. Remove the cutting deck from beneath the tractor,
(refer to Deck Removal in the MAINTENANCE
section of your tractor’s operator’s manual for detailed
instructions) then gently flip the deck over to expose
its underside.
2. Place a block of wood between the center deck hous-
ing baffle and the cutting blade to act as a stabilizer,
keeping the blades from turning when you loosen the
hex flange nuts.
3. Use a 15/16” wrench to remove the hex flange nut that
secures the blade to the spindle assembly.
NOTE: The hex flange nut has a normal (right-handed)
thread pattern. Do NOT attempt to force the nut in the
incorrect direction. Doing so may damage the nut and
create a safety hazard.
4. Install the new blades packed with the bagger. Be
sure to install the blade with the side of the blade
marked ‘‘Bottom’’ (or with a part number stamped in
it) facing the ground when the rider is in the operating
position.
5. Mount the SMALLER of the three blades to the
CENTER spindle. The remaining two blades are
interchangeable. See Fig. 5-1.
6. Use a torque wrench to tighten the blade spindle hex
flange nut to between 70 and 90 foot-pounds.
7. Remount the cutting deck.

Attaching Discharge
Chute
1. On some older models, a clip is already installed on
the cutting deck next to the discharge chute opening
in position A, B, or C, as seen in Fig. 6-1. If this is
the case, the clip must be removed and a grass
catcher pin installed.
2. Pin Installation: A grass catcher pin (E1 in Fig. 2-2)
and nut (E2 in Fig. 2-2) have been supplied in the
hardware pack. First remove the clip (if present),
as seen in Fig. 6-2A, by removing the nut and bolt.
Then attach the grass catcher pin as seen in Fig.
6-2B. Make sure to secure the pin tightly.
3. Some units may not have clip, but will have an open
hole for pin installation. In this case, install the grass
catcher pin from the hardware pack in the available
hole.
4. You will then need to position the retainer strap on
the discharge chute to correspond with the hole and
pin. See Fig. 6-3 for retainer strap positioning.
NOTE: The retainer strap is fitted at position A on the
discharge chute. However, on older models of trac-
tors, you will have to change the position of the strap
depending on the location of the grass catcher pin on
the deck. Remove the retainer strap from position A on
the discharge chute to position B or C corresponding to
the position of the grass catcher pin at A, B or C on the
deck. See Fig. 6-3.

modelo de la podadora tractor que se encuentra debajo
del asiento. Simplemente levante el asiento y ubique
la placa de modelo, la cual comprende un número de
modelo de 11 dígitos/ letras y un número de serie. Para
facilitar la instalación y para uso futuro, copie el número
de modelo y el número de serie de la podadora tractor a
continuación:
Tractor modelo númeror:__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
Podadora tractor serie número:___________________
Los números 5º, 6º y 7º de la izquierda en el número
de modelo determinan la serie del modelo de podadora
tractor. Vea la Fig. 1-2.
Cuando complete el número de modelo en el espacio
que se suministra más arriba, el número de serie
concreto del modelo debe quedar en el área sombreada
en gris.
Ahora que ha determinado cuál es el modelo de
podadora a la cual usted va a adosar este sistema de
recolección de pasto, observe las instrucciones de
las siguientes páginas de acuerdo con el modelo de
podadora tractor que posee.
