Part Number: BUC10705 The MulchControl system includes an adjustable MulchControl baffle near the discharge chute and fixed baffles to control the flow of material under the deck. The MulchControl handle is on top of the mower deck and is used to open and close the MulchControl baffle. When the MulchControl baffle is open, most of the material flows freely out of the discharge deflector or into a material collection system. When the MulchControl baffle is closed, material stays within the deck and gets chopped into mulch and deposited in the turf. While in the side discharge mode, MulchControl still mulches about one third of the material. Therefore, the side discharge mode is essentially a partial mulch mode. This can be an advantage when side discharging or bagging, as it helps to reduce the amount of material being discharged When bagging with MulchControl, the MulchControl baffle can be opened or closed with the Power Flow™ blower installed. The Power Flow blower runs without material when the baffle is closed. The MulchControl system makes mulching more practical for many mowing situations. It does an excellent job of mulching and allows the mower to be easily converted for times when it is more desirable to side discharge or collect the lawn material. The mulching grass clippings creates a beautiful looking lawn, small grass clippings disappear into the lawn canopy, Reduces fertilizer needs, Grass clippings are not blown onto the operator, driveways, or flower beds and no need to dispose of bags of clippings The MulchControl for the 48-inch Accel Deep (48A) Mower Deck makes mulching more practical for many mowing situations because it not only does an excellent job of mulching but it also allows the mower to be easily converted for times when it is more desirable to side discharge or collect the lawn material.
