Hustler Bagger & Grass Catcher Systems

Dump-from-the-seat baggers, grass catchers, and leaf vacuums for Hustler Super Z, X-One, and Fastrak zero turns and Super S stand-ons.

Protero builds baggers for the Hustler Super Z and HyperDrive, X-One, Diesel Z, Fastrak, and the Super S stand-ons. Each one is an aftermarket bagging system: collect grass and leaves in a high-capacity rear container, then dump the whole load with one lever without leaving the seat.

Hustler Zero-Turn Bagger

Protero offers the 10-bushel PV13, 14.5-bushel PV18, or 18-bushel PV22 for compatible Hustler zero-turn mowers, including the Diesel Z, Fastrak, Fastrak SDX, HyperDrive, Super Mini Z, Super Z, X-One, and X-Ride, plus 1 more. Every load dumps from the seat with one lever.

Hustler Stand-On Grass Catcher

Protero offers the 10-bushel PV13S or 14-bushel PV17S for compatible Hustler stand-on mowers, including the Super S and Super SF. Every load empties without stepping off the platform.

Protero PV17S can fit many brands. Contact us to fit your Hustler mower.

Hustler Stand-On Bagger

Hustler stand-on owners running the Super S and Super SF can choose 10-bushel PV13S or 14-bushel PV17S. Both run on Protero’s belt-driven commercial blower and empty without stepping off the platform.

Hustler Leaf Vacuum & Leaf Bagger

Every Protero system doubles as a Hustler 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 Hustler Owners Choose Protero

Protero's Hustler catchers are engineered for Hustler zero-turn mowers, delivering up to 14.5 bushels of collection capacity. The wedge-shaped PV18 adds minimal length while the quick-dump lever empties a full load in seconds — purpose-built for Hustler mower decks.

Protero Hustler Catcher Features

A Real Blower Behind Every Bagger

Zero-turn and stand-on systems run on Protero’s belt-driven commercial blower, the most powerful blower on the market. It pulls grass and leaves off the deck and keeps material moving into the container, even when it’s wet.
