Genuine 970699003 for Ryobi Grass Bag RY40104 P1102 970699001

What It Is

This is the OEM grass collection bag for Ryobi 40V brushless mowers, specifically designed for models RY40104 and P1102. It replaces part numbers 970699001 and 970699003, and is used to catch clippings during mulching or bagging operations.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your mower model number (not just brand). This bag fits Ryobi RY40104 and P1102 mowers only—it will not work with older Ryobi 40V models like RY40100 or RY40180 without adapter modifications. Check your existing bag’s part number: if it’s 970699001 or 970699003, this is a direct swap. The bag measures approximately 22 x 12 x 10 inches, with a 3-inch diameter chute opening. It uses a rigid plastic frame with a fabric bag—no zipper or liner. Aftermarket bags are cheaper but may have loose fit or weaker attachment clips.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Fabric is durable but not waterproof; grass will stain and smell if stored wet. Empty after each use.
• Installation: Tool-free—slides onto the mower’s rear discharge chute and locks with two side clips. Takes under 30 seconds.
• Common gotcha: The bag’s plastic mounting brackets can crack if overtightened or dropped. Handle by the bag, not the frame.
• Capacity: Holds about 1.5 bushels (roughly 3-4 bags of leaves). Fills quickly in thick grass—plan for frequent stops.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Ryobi RY40104 or P1102 and need a direct OEM replacement, this is the right call. It’s reliable, fits perfectly, and avoids the trial-and-error of aftermarket options. Skip it if you’re on a tight budget or have a different Ryobi 40V model—check part numbers first.
