ABSTRACT:
A lawn mower comprises a chassis including a grass discharge outlet, and a grass collection bag having a main body portion in which two access openings are formed is removable attached to the chassis with one of the access openings connected to the grass discharge outlet. A first panel is attached to the other access opening and is movable between an open position which permits grass clippings accumulated in the bag to be removed or dumped through the access opening, and a closed position which blocks the access opening. Second and third panels are attached to the first panel and to the main body portion of the bag on opposite sides of the access opening and are foldable upon themselves in response to movement of the first panel toward its closed position for preventing the escape of grass clippings from the side edges of the opening when the first panel is in its closed position. A closure assembly is provided for securing the first panel in its closed, or sealed, position.
