Attaching Discharge Chute
Your lawn mower was shipped as a mulcher. Remove the mulching cover and attach the side-discharge chute for
discharging grass clippings.
• Remove three plastic wing nuts holding the mulching cover to the deck. See Figure 6A. Keep the cover in a
safe place for future use. Save the wing nuts.
• Place the side-discharge chute on the deck (in place of the mulching cover) so that the top flange on the
discharge chute goes under the top edge of the opening on the deck. See Figure 6B.
• Align the three slots on the chute with the hardware slots on the deck.
• Secure with the wing nuts earlier removed. Tighten the wing nuts.
