DISCHARGING

Simply remove mulcher plate and store in a safe place. Your mower is now ready for discharging or installation of optional grass catcher accessory.

NOTE: If discharging or bagging results are unsatisfactory with mulcher blades on mower, remove the mulcher blades and install high performance discharging blades, which are available at an authorized service center/department. (See MOWER in the Repair Parts section of this manual).
