Replacing the Grass Deflector

WARNING
An uncovered discharge opening could allow the
lawn mower to throw objects in the operator's or
bystander's direction and result in serious injury or
death. Also, contact with the blade could occur.
Never operate the lawn mower unless you install
a cover plate, a mulch plate, or a grass chute and
catcher.
1. Remove the locknut, bolt, spring and spacer holding
the deflector to the pivot brackets (Figure 60). Remove
