SECTION I
INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION
1-1 Introduction
23HP, 32HP Vanguard & 26HP Briggs ELS - Add
(2) flat washers P#(K0131) between clutch and pump
pulley, use (1) 7/16”-20 x 4” HHCS P#(K0359) and (1)
7/16” lock washer P#(K0053) to fasten engine pulley
assembly.
We are pleased to have you as a Bad Boy customer.
Your collection system has been designed to give you a
low maintenance, simple, and effective way to collect the
grass clippings from your mower. This manual is
provided to give you the necessary instructions to
properly mount and operate the collection system on
your mower. Please read this manual thoroughly.
Understand what each control is for and how to use it.
Observe all safety decal precautions on the machine and
noted throughout the manual.
26HP Kawasaki - Add (1) flat washer P#(K0131)
between clutch and pump pulley (has 2 existing washers
between clutch and pump pulley), use (1) M10-1.5 x
90MM HHCS P#(K0117) and (1) 7/16” lock washer
P#(K0053) to fasten engine pulley assembly.
27HP & 30HP Kohler - Do not add washer (has 1
existing washer between clutch and pump pulley), use
(1) 7/16”-20 x 4” HHCS P#(K0359) and (1) 7/16” lock
washer P#(K0053) to fasten engine pulley assembly.
NOTE: All references made to right, left, front, rear, top
or bottom are as viewed from the normal operator’s
position on the mower.
1-2 Description
The added pulley will power the collection system. Note
that the center of the hub that is extended should be
upward toward the engine (Figure 1). Torque the bolt to
55 ft./lbs.
The collection system is designed for turf maintenance
where there is a need to collect the grass clippings as
the mower cuts the turf. It is also good for picking up
leaves and twigs in pre-season and post-season clean-
up.
The blower, mounted on the right side of the unit, uses a
belt and gearbox system from the engine PTO shaft.
Drive train protection comes through belt slippage. The
blower draws grass clippings from the discharge area of
the cutter deck back to the 3 - 3.3 cubic foot collection
bags P#(G0002) at the rear portion of the mower frame.
The operator can engage the blower with a push of the
over-center linkage on the right side of the unit. Once the
bags are full with clippings, they can be released to
make for easy dumping.

2-12 Lengths Of Hose Adjustment
2-14 Lower Hose To Blower Cone
Installation
The hoses in steps 2-13 and 2-14 must be cut to fit your
machine. Follow steps 2-13 and 2-14. Do not cut the
hoses until you have tried to fit them on your machine.
Remember that the hoses have to be long enough to
allow for enough clamping surface between the inlet,
blower assembly, and the deck boot.
Slide a 7”-8” hose clamp P#(J6006) over both ends of
the lower hose. Then proceed to slide the lower hose
onto the blower cone. Tighten the hose clamp. The
assembly should look like Figure 16.
2-15 Lower Hose To Boot Installation
2-13 Upper Hose Installation
Take the unattached end of the lower hose and slide it
over the circular end of the boot. Use the lower hose
clamp to secure the hose to the boot (Figure 16). Tip:
Before securing clamp rotate hose counter-clockwise
(away from yourself) approximately 1” to add in retaining
boot to mower deck.
Fasten the inlet to the plastic top by sliding the inlet from
the inside of the top to the outside and lock into place.
Slide a 5”-6” upper hose clamp P#(J6011) onto both
ends of the 6” upper hose (Figure 15). Then slide one
end of the 6” hose onto the inlet. Make sure there is
about a two-inch overlap between the hose end and the
container inlet. Proceed to slide the opposite end of the
6” hose onto the outlet of the blower assembly. See
Figure 15 for details. Make sure both ends of the hose
are clearly attached to the inlet and the blower assembly
inlet. Tighten the hose clamps.
2-16 Front Weight Installation
Slide the weight bracket assembly P#(A0597) into the
mower’s front receiver hitch (Figure 17). Fasten by using
(1) 5/8” x 3” clevis pin P#(K0172) and (1) 5/32” x 2-5/8”
hair pin clip P#(K0088). When installing the weight bar
(Figure 18) P#(B2220), you should have another person
help position the weight centered onto the weight
bracket assembly. Fasten the weight by using (2) 1/2”-13

2-17 Installation/Removal Of
Collection Bags
Plastic Top
To install the bag onto the bag ring, first make sure the
bag ring end caps are fastened to the bag ring. Place the
seam openings of the bag onto the bag ring openings
and turn the bag until the slot bracket in the bag ring is
protruding from the opening in the bag (Figure 19). Do
this for each of three bags.
Install the completed assemblies onto the support frame
and close the plastic top. Fasten both draw latches to
hold the plastic top closed (Figure 20).
Draw Latches
To empty the bag, remove the bag and bag ring by lifting
and sliding rearward. Grasp the loop on the bottom of
the bag, turn it upside down and empty the collected
debris (Figure 21). Repeat for the other bags. Reinstall
all bags, line with plastic bags if desired, close the plastic
top and reattach the draw latches.
Figure 21.
Plastic lawn and leaf bags, 33 gallon size, may be used
inside the cloth bags. Be sure to leave enough plastic
bag hanging over the frame so the plastic bags can be
twist tied before emptying (Figure 22).

SECTION III
3-3 Disengagement Of The Blower
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3-1 General Safety
A. To disengage the blower, rotate the engagement
handle towards the mower.
Only qualified people familiar with this operator’s manual
and the mower’s operator’s manual should operate this
machine.
WARNING: The blower will continue to spin. DO NOT
TOUCH the blower, pulleys, or the belt until the tractor is
turned off. DO NOT adjust the belt tension until the
mower is turned off. Refer to section 2-3 and 2-4 of the
manual.
3-2 Operation And Tips On Mowing
A. Perform BEFORE EACH USE the maintenance list in
paragraph 4-1.
3-4 Unloading The Collection System
NOTE: To determine when the collection bags are full,
follow the following steps:
B. Start mower.
C. With the mower at high idle speed, engage the mower
deck.
A. Stop the forward movement of the mower.
B. Disengage the mower deck.
C. Disengage the blower.
D. While seated in the operator’s seat, rotate the
engagement handle of the collection system away
from the mower. Continue to rotate the handle until it
stops in an over center position. With the blower
engaged, you can proceed to operate the control
levers of the mower.
D. Engage the parking brake.
E. Once the parking brake has been engaged, then and
only then, walk behind the mower and check the
collection bags by lifting the plastic hood. Load in
bags should not exceed the height of the installed
bag.
NOTE: If the collection system does not appear to be
collecting the grass clippings, disengage the deck
and blower, then, engage the parking brake and turn the
mower off. Proceed to section 3-3, and review the
section 2-3 and 2-4, in this manual.
F. To release bags from frame, lift bag ring from tab on
bagger frame, slide bag out and turn bags over to
deposit clippings.
To obtain the maximum effectiveness from your
collection system the tips listed below should be
followed:
G. Follow steps on page 14 to re-attach bags back to the
bagger.
* Watch your speed- Normal conditions will allow a
speed of up to approximately 5 mph, but thick, heavy
damp conditions will require reduced ground speed.
NOTE: Do not allow collection bags to become over-
filled as potential damage may occur to your
equipment. Also, be sure to clean the hood screen as
needed.
* Mow with sharp blades- A sharp blade cuts cleaner.
* Wet grass and leaves will decrease effectiveness and
will increase horsepower requirements.
SECTION IV
* Mow at higher cutting heights- Remove and mulch no
more than 2” of grass length with each mowing.
(Experts recommend not cutting off more than 1/3 of
the grass blade length at any given time.)
MAINTENANCE
4-1 Maintenance Checklist
Before each use:
* Mow twice, at different height settings, (high, then low),
if grass is extra tall.
1. Check blades and spindles to be sure that no foreign
objects, such as wire or steel strapping bands, are
wrapped around them.
* Remember that horsepower requirements will vary with
the mowing conditions such as type and height of turf
grass, moisture content, amount of leaves, whether the
terrain is flat or hilly, etc.
2. Inspect blades for wear. Replace if necessary. If it is
necessary to sharpen the blades, remove the blades
from the spindles before sharpening. DO NOT
sharpen blades while still attached to the mower.

3. Make sure all shields are in place and in good
condition. Repair or replace any missing or damaged
shields.
4-2 Lubrication
NOTE: Use only white lithium based grease for
lubrication of the shaft on the blower assembly.
4. Perform lubrication per paragraph 4-2.
5. Listen for abnormal sounds, which might indicate
loose parts, damaged bearings, or other damage.
Correct any deficiency before continuing operation.
1. On initial use: Grease the fitting on the blower shaft.
2. Every 25 hours of use: Re-grease the grease fitting.
6. With the engine off, engage the blower assembly.
Check the belt tension and inspect the pulley belt for
cracks or tears.
3. Every 200 hours of use: Check oil levels in gear box.
Oil in gear box should cover the gears. If not, fill using
an EP90 weight oil. 6oz. will fill the gear box from
empty.
7. Check for wear or deterioration of the upper or lower
hoses. If there are any portions of the hose that have
been torn or worn through, replace with genuine
Bad Boy parts.
