Identifyingthe Mulch Plug (ifsoequipped)
On tractor models with 38- and 42-inch decks so
equipped, a mulch plug can be found within the cutting
deck's discharge opening.
NOTE: Refer to Mulchingon page 15 for more detailed
information.
If you'd prefer to operate the cutting deck without
mulching, simply remove the mulch plug by
unthreading the plastic wing nut which fastens itto the
cutting deck. This will allow the grass clippings to
discharge out of the discharge opening during
operation. See Figure 7.
