Replacing the Grass Deector
Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Inspect the
grass deector for damage
An uncovered discharge opening could allow
the lawn cutter deck to throw objects in the
operator’s or bystander’s direction and result
in serious injury. Also, contact with the blade
could occur.
Never operate the machine without grass
deector, discharge cover or grass collection
system in place.
Inspect the grass deector for damage before each use.
Replace any damaged parts before use.
