BUC11053: Mulch Control Kit, 42A inch

Part Number: BUC11053

• 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 on a 42A Mower Deck, the cut-and-throw rear bagger can be used with the MulchControl blades. However, the rear MulchControl baffle (A) needs to be removed to install the bagger chute. The baffle is held in place with two carriage bolts. To return to mulching, the chute needs to be removed and the baffle replaced.

• • 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
