Mower Doesn't Catch Grass

I'll cut the whole lawn, and the bag won't even be 1/4 full. I don't claim to be a
genius, but I can only see one way to put the bag on, so let's assume I've done
that correctly.

It is a mulching lawnmower, with the curved blade. Would buying a flat blade help?
I am guessing that the motor is so powerful (6.75 hp, not self-propelled), that it
is mulching and pulverizing before it can bag it.

Appreciate any responese.


I don't know if this will help your situation or not, but it sounds a LOT like what 4 of mine were NOT doing....picking up grass clipping. I uploaded what I did on mine at: https://youtu.be/FuYu4CHBzZw
I hope this will help.

Since this was posted in 2001, the mower is probably in a landfill by
now. No Thanks to the idiots at HomoWhinersHub for reposting this 15
year old msg.
