5. Install the Mulch Plug or

Procedure
You must correctly install the mulch plug (for mulching
or side-discharging) or grass bag (for bagging) or the
engine will not start.
The mower has a safety switch, located at the bottom
of a channel on the top, right rear of the mower, that
prevents the mower from operating without a mulch
plug or grass bag. This prevents the mower from
throwing debris at the operator through the rear chute.
For the switch to detect the presence of the mulch plug,
the top of the mulch plug lever must lie fully in the
bottom of the channel (Figure 9).
