Dixie Chopper Zero-Turn Bagger

Protero offers the 10-bushel PV13 or 14.5-bushel PV18 for compatible Dixie Chopper zero-turn mowers, including the Blackhawk, Blackhawk HP, Classic, Eagle, Eagle HP, Falcon HP, Magnum, and Silver Eagle LT, plus 8 more. Every load dumps from the seat with one lever.

Dixie Chopper Leaf Vacuum & Leaf Bagger

Every Protero system doubles as a Dixie Chopper leaf vacuum and leaf collector. The same catcher that picks up grass all summer handles leaves as you mow in the fall, then dumps the load where you want it. There’s no tow-behind leaf vacuum to buy and no bags to haul.

Why Dixie Chopper Owners Choose Protero

Protero's Dixie Chopper catchers are built to match the speed and performance of Dixie Chopper zero-turn mowers. With 10–14.5 bushel capacity and quick-dump convenience, these USA-made systems keep Dixie Chopper operators productive on the largest commercial properties.

A Real Blower Behind Every Bagger
