2. Position the new discharge deflector
assembly with the bracket ends between
the welded brackets on the deck as shown
in Figure 13.
3. Install the spring onto the straight end of the
rod. Position the spring on the rod as shown
in Figure 13 so the shorter spring end is
coming from under the rod before the bend
and going over the rod as it returns from the
bend.
4. Lift the long end of the spring and place it
into the notch on the deflector assembly
bracket Figure 14.

5. Secure the rod and spring assembly by
twisting it so the short end of the rod can be
placed behind the front bracket welded to
the deck (Figure 14).
Important: The discharge deflector must
be spring loaded in the down position. Lift
the deflector up to test that it snaps to the
full down position.

Operating Tips

Larger Machine with Bagger
Remember that the mower is longer and wider
with this attachment installed. By turning too
sharply in confined places you may damage the
attachment.
Trimming
Always trim with the left side of the mower. Do
not trim with the right side of the mower because
you could damage the bagger's chute and
discharge tube.
Cutting Height
Do not set the mower cutting height too low
because long grass surrounding the mower can
prevent air from getting under the mower and
entering the bagging system. If enough air
doesn't get under the mower, the bagging system
will plug.
Cutting Frequency
Cut the grass often, especially when it grows
rapidly. You will have to cut your grass twice if it
gets excessively long.
Cutting Technique
For best lawn appearance, be sure to slightly
overlap the mower into the previously cut area.
This helps reduce the load on the engine and
reduces the chance of plugging the chute and
discharge tube.
Using Bag Liners
Although not required, bag liners may be inserted
into each grass bag to collect clippings and make
disposal more convenient (Figure 15). If you use
a bag liner, remove the filled grass bag and close
the top of the liner. Then pull the liner out the
grass bag or turn the bag upside down while
holding the handle on the bottom of the grass
bag, allowing the liner to slide out.
