Replacing the Grass Deflector
An uncovered discharge opening could allow
the lawn mower to throw objects in the
operator’s or bystander’s direction and result in
serious injury or death. Also, contact with the
blade could occur.
Never operate the lawn mower with the grass
deflector removed unless you install a cover
plate, a mulch plate, or a grass chute and
catcher.
1. Remove the locknut, bolt, spring and spacer holding
the deflector to the pivot brackets (Figure 62).
Remove damaged or worn grass deflector.

position and ensure that it rotates freely without
binding into the full down position.
