I have the 3 bagging system for my x485 really works great and I enjoy it. But I don't need it all the time how do you take the blower off from the deck? And is it hard to put back on? Any help would greatly be appreciated. THanks JE /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

VERY easy to take the blower off. Just unlatch the rubber hookup to slide off the chute, then flip one lever to a 'park' or notched position, which loosens the belt and the belt is lifted off the driving pulley. Then swing the blower out and lift it off the hinge peg at the front. Very quick, and easy, and simple to put it back on. No bolts, nuts, screws, or knobs to loosen or remove. Probably a 20 second job max. (at least that is how my X485 power blower works.

THanks so much for your advice, I will take off very soon and let you know how it goes. Do you take yours own and off very much? I have been very satisfied with my bagging system what about you?
