The main thing to look at is how clean the fabric is ,if it is solid with grass sap it stops the grass from lifting into the bag ,also make sure you put your blade back on the right way up . Gary :smile:

What do you mean by " how clean the fabric " is ?

Is the bag covered in grass.
The bag has to be able to breathe

(( racing is the only sport that you need two balls ))

My rider is a 3 bagger (solid containers) . It has a screen out let for ?pressure? relief at the top of the tube (perhaps similar to the bag porosity)? When I get a trail of clippings it is from plugging of uptake tube (damp or wet grass), or plugging of deck outlet to tube due to damp grass/heavy weeds/branches, or backup down the tube from full container. If you have "winged" blade(s) they are not upside down somehow?

The outside of the bag is spotless ,no clippings whatsoever although the under side of it is caked with grass from prior mowing i will clean that up today before I mow it next thank you so much folks for your quick replies I do appreciate it immensely , God bless , I'm sure I'll be back with other questions I'm a pretty particular guy with my power equipment and other things I own.
