Gravely Baggers, Grass Catchers & Leaf Collection Systems

The Gravely Pro-Turn series is the flagship commercial zero-turn line, and it is one of the most common Gravely platforms Protero owners ask about.

Protero offers the PV13, PV18, and PV22 catchers for compatible Pro-Turn models, covering deck sizes from 48 inches up to 72 inches.

The PV13 works with smaller deck Pro-Turn configurations, the PV18 handles mid-to-large decks, and the PV22 provides maximum capacity for select models like the Pro-Turn 500 and Pro-Turn 600.

Because the Pro-Turn lineup spans several deck sizes and configurations, confirming your exact model and deck measurement ensures the best fit.

Gravely compact tractors open up a different collection approach. Instead of a belt-driven blower, PTO-powered systems use the tractor power take-off to drive the collection fan.

Protero offers PTO-powered collection systems for compatible Gravely compact tractor configurations, providing strong airflow for heavy grass and leaf collection.

These systems feature a durable steel fan, bolt-in liner, and quick-pin attach design for straightforward installation and removal.

If you own a Gravely compact tractor and want to collect grass or leaves, a PTO-powered Protero system may offer the capacity and airflow you need.

The Gravely ZT HD is a popular residential and prosumer zero-turn, and Protero offers the PV13 and PV18 catchers for compatible ZT HD models.

For homeowners maintaining larger residential properties, a high-capacity catcher reduces the number of stops to empty bags compared to standard fabric bagger systems.

The ZT HD Stealth is also compatible with Protero catchers on the right deck configuration.

If you own a ZT HD, confirm your deck size and model year to see which Protero catcher is available.

Gravely stand-on mowers like the Pro-Stance and Pro-Stance Ultra are built for commercial productivity and quick dismount.

Protero offers the PV13s and PV17s catchers for compatible Gravely stand-on models, extending collection capability to this mower platform.

Stand-on mowers are often used on properties where maneuverability and tight trimming matter, and a rear catcher helps keep clippings and leaves off walkways and beds.

Gravely zero-turn decks range from 48 inches to 72 inches, and the deck size is central to choosing the right Protero catcher.

As a general guide, smaller decks pair with the PV13, mid-size decks work with the PV18, and the largest decks on select models can use the PV22 for maximum capacity.

Deck configuration and discharge design also affect fitment, so model and deck confirmation is always recommended.

• •Pro-Turn 100 and ZT HD with smaller decks — typically PV13
• •Pro-Turn 200 through 400 — typically PV18
• •Pro-Turn 500 and 600 — PV18 or PV22
• •Pro-Stance stand-on — PV13s or PV17s

These are general guidelines. Always confirm your exact model, year, and deck size using the Gravely fitment guide.

Fall leaf cleanup can overwhelm small bagger systems, and Gravely owners maintaining larger properties know this well.

A Protero collection system handles both grass and leaves, so you can use the same system for mowing season and fall leaf collection without buying a separate leaf vacuum.

The deck-mounted blower moves leaves from the deck into the rear catcher as you drive, letting you collect leaves while mowing rather than making a separate pass with a different tool.

This is especially useful for properties with:

• •Mature trees and heavy leaf drop
• •Multiple acres of lawn
• •Commercial accounts requiring leaf removal
• •Long fall cleanup seasons

Gravely mowers serve both commercial landscapers and serious homeowners, and Protero systems are built to match both use cases.

For commercial operators running Pro-Turn or Pro-Stance models, a Protero catcher can reduce unloading stops with high-capacity collection and dump-from-the-seat convenience on compatible models.

For homeowners with ZT HD or other residential Gravely models, a Protero system offers an alternative to standard baggers that need manual emptying.

The combination of powered airflow, large-capacity rear collection, and convenient dumping makes the system practical for both environments.

Protero systems fit a range of Gravely zero-turn and stand-on models, but not every Gravely is compatible.

Models that are not compatible include the Compact-Pro, Pro-Stance EV, Pro-Turn EV, Rapid XZ, ZT, ZT X, and ZT XL.
