The Mulch-On-Demand Mower Decks are equipped with two adjustable chamber separators that can be used to control grass flow between blades.

Depending on mowing conditions, chamber separators can be adjusted, or removed, to improve performance when mulching or side discharging.

Move chamber separators in the forward position (B) for best mulching performance; they should be in the rearward position (A) or removed when side discharging. However, any combination of chamber separators placements can be used at the customer's discretion.

Chamber separators are slotted (C) for ease of adjustment.

  1. Park machine safely. (See Parking Safely in the SAFETY SECTION.)
