D. INSTALLATION OF MULCHING PLUG
WARNING
Before installing the mulching plug, place the
PTO switch in the “OFF” position, engage the
brake pedal lock, turn the ignition key to the
“OFF” position.
1. If the mower deck has been used, clean any
buildup of grass clippings from the chute opening
of the deck housing.
2. Lift and hold the chute deflector in the upward
position (Refer to Figure 59).
3. Position the mulching plug so that the retaining lip
on the backside of the plug partially interlocks with
the lower edge of the deck chute opening; then
rotate the top of the plug upward so that the hooks
engage the deflector hinge rod (Refer to Figure
59).
4. Push the mulching plug fully downward and lower
the chute deflector.
5. To remove the mulching plug, raise the chute
deflector and lift the mulching plug upward, then
outward to disengage from the deck. Lower the
chute deflector.
