He said it cut alright until he got to some thick stuff out back. I was telling him what a difference blades make and how you can cutout the opening bigger.
I lifted the shoot to show him how i cut mine, and we find this. A good laugh was had. :tongue:

If the flap was bungeed up it might not have clogged,,but still,,the opening is horribly restricted from factory...Im going to call my dealer and ask him if i can cut my opening bigger without messing up the warranty...its really the only bad thing about this mower other than a couple small nut and bolt issues.
Look at the bright side,at least your buddy doesn’t need to order a mulching kit for that mower :)

Just grab a big wad of that, add salt, pepper, and a little ranch dressing and you are good to go. Probably taste about like spinach.

I posted about a mod I made for my unit a good while back where I removed that oversized chute. Added some lexan over that top hole and I am good to go. If I were mowing around a bunch of kids or vehicles I probably would leave it on. Thankfully, only a bunch of slow moving old ladies around the neighborhood. :rolleyes:
