RECYCLER
MOWER SIDE
DISCHARGE KIT
Since this instruction sheet covers only a minimal
amount of information necessary to maintain and
operate your mower, we suggest that you keep this
material with your Operator’s Manual so that both
may be referred to for instructions concerning safe
operation and proper maintenance procedures.
Your Recycler mower has been updated to
permit side discharging. Make sure that your
dealer is aware of this whenever parts are
ordered or servicing is required.
Safety and Instruction Decals
Safety decals and instructions are easily visible to the operator and are located near
any area of potential danger. Replace any decal that is damaged or lost.

Operation
Using Side Discharge Chute
1. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to
stop.
2. Ensure discharge door handle is fully forward
(door closed) (Fig. 4).
POTENTIAL HAZARD
• Thrown objects may result if discharge
door does not close completely.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Thrown objects can cause serious personal
injury or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
• If discharge door cannot be closed because
grass clippings clog discharge area, stop
engine and gently move discharge door
handle back and forth until door can be
closed completely. If door still cannot be
closed, remove obstruction with a stick, not
your hand.
3. INSTALLING CHUTE—Place opening in
discharge chute over discharge tunnel opening
and position as shown in Figure 4. Ensure chute
stop is in front of handle bracket.

and hold discharge door fully open. When the

not interfere with the lower end of the
plug.

Maintenance
To ensure best performance, the discharge tunnel plug
must be cleaned after each use. When grass is thick
and lush, clippings may collect on and around the
plug; this may make plug removal difficult. After
each use, remove plug from discharge tunnel and
clean off all debris.
Always be sure that discharge tunnel door locks
closed when handle is released. If debris prevents
discharge door from locking closed, clean inside of
discharge tunnel and door thoroughly.
1. Stop engine and pull wire off spark plug.
Remove key from switch (key start models).
2. Remove fuel tank cap. Use a pump-type syphon
to drain fuel into a clean gas can.
Note: This is the only procedure
recommended for draining fuel.
3. Tip mower on side; refer to mower’s Operator’s
Manual for proper side to use. Avoid rotating
blade because starting problems may result.
4. Remove dirt and grass clippings that stick to
housing with a hardwood scraper. Avoid burrs
and sharp edges.
5. Turn mower upright.
6. Remove debris from inside of discharge tunnel.
7. Clean discharge tunnel plug and reinstall it.
8. Refill fuel tank.
