Procedure
Important:
Make sure the mower deck is in the lowest
height-of-cut position while installing the discharge
tubes.
1. Lower the mower deck to the lowest height-of-cut
position.
2. Install the lower tube into the middle tube so there is
63.5 mm (2-1/2 inches) of overlap (
Figure 20 ).

3. Using the three holes or indentations in the middle tube
as a template, drill 3 holes (7/32 inch diameter) where
the lower and middle tubes join together (
Figure 21 ).
4. Loosely install the lower and middle tubes with 3 bolts
(#10 x 3/4 inches), 3 flat washers (7/32 inch), and 3
locknuts (#10) (
