Side Discharge or Mulch Grass
Warning
Step
Without the grass deflector, discharge cover, or
complete grass catcher assembly mounted in place,
you and others are exposed to blade contact and
thrown debris. Contact with rotating mower
blade(s) and thrown debris will cause injury or
death.
• Never remove the grass deflector from the
mower because the grass deflector routes
material down toward the turf. If the grass
deflector is ever damaged, replace it
immediately.
• Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
• Never try to clear discharge area or mower
blades unless you move the power take off
(PTO) to disengage and turn the ignition key to
off. Also remove the key and pull the wire off
the spark plug(s).
Ensure the mower has the hinged grass deflector that
disperses clippings to the side and down toward the turf,
while in side discharge mode.
To mulch grass clippings, the baffles must be installed into
the mower as shown in the following steps.
