Front and Rear Deflectors (Standard Equipment)

Front and Rear rubber-fabric Deflectors are Standard Equipment and Front and Rear Chain Guards are optional . One type of guard must be installed (and maintained in good repair) except for agricultural purposes only in areas where persons, vehicles, livestock, or other property will not be endangered by thrown objects and where such safety equipment would prevent the mower's reasonable performance of its assigned agricultural task. Assy01- Shielding

Deflectors: Front and Rear Deflectors (Standard Equipment) are recommended for the average user and will provide protection from thrown objects with proper operation under normal conditions. Deflectors must be maintained in good repair or replaced after no more than two inches of wear off lower edge.
