3. BLADES AND ATTACHMENTS Honda HRM21 mulching mowers are factory-equipped with a low-lift blade
and mower deck cover designed to cut grass clippings and fallen leaves into
fine particles that will fall through the turf and decompose quickly. This returns
nutrients to the soil and reduces the need for raking, bagging, and disposal.
A side-discharge kit and a grass bag kit are available as optional equipment.
Side-discharging mowing, or bagging, should be considered where grass has
grown too tall to mulch easily. Bagging should also be considered for areas
where you want the lawn to be clear of loose particles, such as around
swimming pools.
The side-discharge adapter, or grass bag adapter, bolts onto the mower deck
in place of the standard deck cover. Refer to the installation instructions supplied
with these kits. For side-discharge mowing, or bagging, be sure to install the
optional high-lift blade.
