ABSTRACT:
A grass bagger (13) for a lawn tractor (14). The catcher (13) includes a hood (20) which directs grass clippings into a pair of bag assemblies (40). A grass checker (50), connected to hood (20), is used to check the level of accumulated grass beneath hood (20) to determine when it would be appropriate to empty bag assemblies (40) of their accumulated grass clippings. In order to prevent grass clippings from leaking between bag assemblies (40) and hood (20), and to keep hood (20) from popping open when lawn tractor (14) is driven over rough ground, a pair of latches (70) is included to releasably secure hood (20) to bag assemblies (40).
