BEFORE OPERATION

Mulching Plug

The mulching plug helps to
curve the inside of the mower
deck for more efficient mulching.
Install and remove the mulching
plug by raising the rear door as
shown. The mulching plug only
fits one way. Remove the
mulching plug when using a grass bag.

Side Discharge Chute (HRT216)

To discharge clippings to the side,
install the side discharge chute as
shown here. Be sure to remove
the side discharge chute when
using the grass bag or mulching.

Cutting Height

Check the mower deck cutting
height settings, and be sure that
all four adjustment levers are set
to the same cutting height
position. The lowest setting is
approximatily 3/4 inch (19 mm) and
the highest setting is 3-1/4 inches
(79 mm). Each position increments
about 1/2 inch (13 mm).
To adjust cutting height, pull each
adjustment lever toward the wheel,
and move it into another notch.
If you are not sure what cutting
height to select, start with a high
setting and check the appearance
of the lawn after mowing a small
area. Readjust cutting height if
necessary.
