Install the Discharge Chute Elbow & Boot Hardware
1. Install the rubber chute strap (723-04008A) onto the discharge chute elbow using
clevis pin (711-05063), washer (736-0204) and bow-tie cotter pin (714-04040) from
hardware pack 689-02201. See Figure 20.
2. Install the ball pin (711-04069) from hardware pack 689-02201 into the hole in the
front of the mower deck, and secure with the included flange lock nut (712-04064).
See Figure 21.
3. With the tractor's discharge chute raised up and held open, install the discharge chute
elbow over the chute opening by placing the top, rear edge of the discharge chute
elbow over the rear of the deck opening, then pivoting the discharge chute elbow down
and over the chute opening. See Figure 22.
NOTE: For the discharge chute elbow to be properly installed, the bottom edge must
fall over the bottom of the deck opening so that the entire deck opening is covered by
the chute elbow. See Figure 23.
4. Secure the discharge chute elbow to the tractor's deck by hooking the chute strap onto
the ball pin installed earlier on the deck. See Figure 24.
5. Install the chute tube extension onto the discharge chute elbow by lining up the tabs
and sliding the adapter over the discharge chute elbow. Secure the chute adapter by
installing the two ratchet clips (726-3046) included in hardware pack 689-02201 in the
holes provided. See Figure 25.
NOTE: Check the upper chute tube (631-04291A) for a cardboard insert installed for
shipping purposes. If the insert is present, remove it before continuing with Step 6.
6. Peel the backing off of the self-adhesive foam strip (721-04388) that has been included
with your bagging attachment. Apply it to the upper chute tube, flush against the
flange as shown in Figure 26.
7. With the bagger cover open, install the upper chute tube over the chute tube extension,
and rest the top so that the chute support sits in the upper chute support groove. See
Figure 27.
NOTE: Make sure to align the upper chute tube with the ridges on the bagger
support bracket.
