Why is there excessive grass blowout from the Exmark Quest Bagger Lawn Mower deck?

R
Ryan HillAug 3, 2025
Excessive grass blowout from the deck can occur for several reasons. The bags might be full, requiring more frequent dumping. The screen in the bagger hood could be plugged; clear any debris, leaves, or grass clippings. If your ground speed is too fast, try driving slower at full throttle. A plugged tube can also cause this issue; locate and remove the blockage. Lastly, dry conditions may contribute; consider using a lower lift blade or reducing the engine speed.

If the tubes on your Exmark Lawn Mower plug too frequently, consider these potential causes and solutions: Ensure you are dumping the bags frequently to prevent them from getting too full. Reduce your ground speed by driving slower at full throttle. Avoid cutting when the grass is too wet; wait for dry conditions. If the grass is too long, cut it more frequently or at a higher cut height. Check for a plugged screen in the bagger hood and remove any debris. Use recommended high lift blades.
