Attaching Discharge
Chute
1. On some older models, a clip is already installed on
the cutting deck next to the discharge chute opening
in position A, B, or C, as seen in Fig. 6-1. If this is
the case, the clip must be removed and a grass
catcher pin installed.
2. Pin Installation: A grass catcher pin (E1 in Fig. 2-2)
and nut (E2 in Fig. 2-2) have been supplied in the
hardware pack. First remove the clip (if present),
as seen in Fig. 6-2A, by removing the nut and bolt.
Then attach the grass catcher pin as seen in Fig.
6-2B. Make sure to secure the pin tightly.
3. Some units may not have clip, but will have an open
hole for pin installation. In this case, install the grass
catcher pin from the hardware pack in the available
hole.
4. You will then need to position the retainer strap on
the discharge chute to correspond with the hole and
pin. See Fig. 6-3 for retainer strap positioning.
NOTE: The retainer strap is fitted at position A on the
discharge chute. However, on older models of trac-
tors, you will have to change the position of the strap
depending on the location of the grass catcher pin on
the deck. Remove the retainer strap from position A on
the discharge chute to position B or C corresponding to
the position of the grass catcher pin at A, B or C on the
deck. See Fig. 6-3.
