LowerDeckDischarge ChuteDeflector
WARNING! Never operate the mower deck without
the chute deflector installed and in the down
position.
Check the mower deck for a shipping brace (with tag) that may
be holding the chute deflector upward for shipment. Ira brace
is present, it must be removed before operating the tractor.
Holding the chute deflector fully upward, remove the shipping
brace by grasping it and rotating it clockwise. Lower the chute
deflector. See Fig. 3-6.
