Only fits 42" mower decks only.

This kit is the composite plastic kit. The metal kit is no longer available.

Key features

The Mulch Control system includes an adjustable Mulch Control baffle near the discharge chute and fixed baffles to control the flow of material under the deck. The Mulch Control handle is on top of the mower deck and is used to open and close the Mulch Control baffle.
When the Mulch Control baffle is open, most of the material flows freely out of the discharge deflector or into a material collection system.
When the Mulch Control baffle is closed, material stays within the deck and gets chopped into mulch and deposited in the turf.
While in the side discharge mode, Mulch Control 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 Mulch Control, the Mulch Control baffle can be opened or closed with the Power Flow™ blower installed. The Power Flow blower runs without material when the baffle is closed.
