Tools and Hardware Reviews of Arnold OEM-190-180 FastAttach Twin Bag Grass Collector
Customer Review: Missing parts and tools ARE needed.
Summary: 3 Stars
Amazon's description says that the "Installation requires no tools" but at least in the case of my mower, I needed to use a socket wrench. There are 4 self-tapping bolts that are used to attach the support brackets to mower. There are 4 more bolts that you must first remove from and then reinstall on the mounting brackets. Now there may be someone out there who can install these bolts by hand and if so, my hat's off to you because you obviously have vice grips for fingers. At any rate, it's not a big deal...just be aware that you'll at least need a socket wrench.
The big problem I had was that my kit (which I purchased from Lowe's), despite being factory sealed, did not include 2 "bell washers". I went back to the store and asked the salesperson in the mower section to check another box for the washers. Wouldn't you know it, that box didn't include the washers either. I figured well maybe the washers are no longer required. However, when I called MTD to inquire about this, the person that I spoke with indicated that the washers were needed and they'd send them to me in "8-10 business days"!
Lowe's sold every other type of washer in the world except "bell washers" so I'll have to check other hardware stores for these elusive washers. I suspect that I could use a regular old flat washer or even install the thing without washers at all. However, since MTD says that they're needed and they went through the trouble of using these specialized washers in the design, I guess I'd better use 'em. Using another type of washer or not using them at all might somehow affect the integrity or security of the attachment. I just don't like the prospect of having to wait 8-10 days if I can't find them elsewhere.
In a nutshell, you'll probably need at least a socket wrench to install the bagger and If you should buy it locally, be sure to check the parts list against the parts in the hardware pack while you're at the store.
Based on the other reviews, I'm sure that the bagger will fit my needs, I'm just anxious to start using the thing.
