Scag Bagger & Grass Catcher Systems

Dump-from-the-seat bagger systems, grass catchers, and leaf vacuums for Scag Turf Tiger, Cheetah, Tiger Cat 2, and Patriot zero turns and V-Ride stand-ons.

Protero builds baggers for the Scag Turf Tiger, Cheetah, Sabretooth Tiger, Patriot, Freedom Z, and Tiger Cat, plus the V-Ride 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.

Scag Leaf Vacuum & Leaf Bagger

Every Protero system doubles as a Scag 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 Scag Owners Choose Protero

Attach or detach in seconds! Protero's Scag catchers use quick pins for hassle-free installation. Built for busy lawn care professionals who need a reliable, high-capacity collection system that keeps pace with demanding schedules.

Protero Scag 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.
