I just installed the bagging attachment for my Toro Timecutter Z, works pretty good, though you need to install weights in the front....

Cons: The weights grind my nerves when getting over curbs - feels like the tires are gonna snap off! I suppose I gotta decrease my speed...

Also, the damn bagging kit is something to get used to, gotta be extra careful on turns. The discharge chute/tube is going to cause a lot of problems for me on some properties.

I'll probably have to dissemble the attachment in order to get into customers backyards - then reassemble once I'm in.. then once more to get back out... lol

I'm sure it sounds more difficult then it'll be.

Overall, it's a great 42' machine.

lol... much easier to read.


As for the thread topic, I haven't a clue, as I'm reading this hoping to hear the thoughts of those who have some experience with them.
