Figure 3-
Identifying the Mulch Plug
(if so equipped)
On tractor models so equipped, a mulch plug can either
be found within the cutting deck’s discharge opening or
packed separately with your unit.
NOTE: Refer to Mulching on page 19 for more detailed
information.
If you’d prefer to operate the cutting deck without mulch-
ing, simply remove the mulch plug by unthreading the
plastic wing nut which fastens it to the cutting deck. This
will allow the clippings to discharge out of the discharge
opening during operation. See Figure 3-7.

WARNING: Maximum tire pres-
sure under any circumstances is
30 psi. Equal tire pressure should
be maintained at all times.
The tires on your unit may be over-inflated for shipping
purposes. Reduce the tire pressure before operating
the tractor. Recommended operating tire pressure is
approximately 10 p.s.i for the rear tires & 14 p.s.i. for the
front tires. Check sidewall of tire for maximum p.s.i.
WARNING: Maximum
