Hello everyone. New owner of a 2018 Gravely ZTHD-52, model# 991164. So far I like it but it does only have 5 hours on it so time will tell.

I have purchased accessory part number 79104300 discharge cover kit, and of course the instructions are general and for several different mowers, but it seemed easy enough to figure out. BUT..... that's where the problem comes in. Once the small baffle in the rear is removed ( per instructions ), you are suppose to use one the existing holes from the baffle and an existing hole in the front of the deck to install the discharge cover kit. The discharge cover kit has two studs already mounted on it and you're suppose to simply put the studs through the holes and screw on two nuts, HOWEVER, the 2 studs do not align up with the existing holes in the deck, I can not find any possible way for this discharge cover to be installed.

HAS ANYONE EVER RUN INTO THIS PROBLEM BEFORE ???

Pulling my head out my butt and doing this this with a little more light helped solve the problem of trying to use the wrong hole. Problem solved. :mur:

I looked it over this morning around 4:00 am and could not see how it would not work. I did not want to post something that was not helpful so just left it alone. I am glad you figured it out.

I purchased this kit also and have removed the existing baffle and front bolt on deck but still does not fit holes. What am I doing wrong, I have a 2018 ZT HD 52" Gravely.
