Using the Grass Deflector
The mower has a hinged grass deflector that disperses
clippings to the side and down toward the turf.
DANGER

complete grass catcher assembly mounted in
place, you and others are exposed to blade contact
and thrown debris. Contact with rotating mower
blade(s) and thrown debris causes injury or death.
• Never remove the grass deflector from
the mower, because the grass deflector
routes material down toward the turf. If the
grass deflector is ever damaged, replace it
immediately.
• Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
• Never try to clear discharge area or mower
blades unless you move the blade-control switch
to the O
FF
