When the area that you mow regularly includes hills, slopes or muddy terrain, it's almost essential that you have a riding mower that includes a rear differential that you can lock into place to give you added rear-wheel traction. Not only does the locked differential ensure that both rear wheels turn together in unison, it makes operating the riding mower safer when you leave level or dry ground. Locking the differential is typically a one-step process that you perform when the mower is stopped.

The deck is stamped from 9-gauge, 3.8-mm (0.15-in.) steel and has welded-on reinforcement at the bottom edge for extra strength and durability. High-capacity mower decks are formed in a hydraulic press to minimize the number of welds and provide a smooth underside for reduced material buildup:
Ramps are provided to permit driving over the mower deck for installing and removing it from the tractor:
A wash port is provided to make cleaning the underside of the mower deck easy:
Optional high-performance mulching attachment The high-performance mulching attachment provides excellent mulching performance:
Optional MulchControl™ attachment The MulchControl attachment makes mulching more practical for many mowing situations because it not only does an excellent job of mulching but it also allows the mower to be easily converted for times when it is more desirable to side discharge or collect the lawn material. Advantages of mulching grass clippings include:
MulchControl is an innovative, simple design that is easy to use and maintain:
MulchControl operationThe optional MulchControl attachment comes with a handle on top of the mower deck that is used to open and close the discharge baffle:
An optional hydraulic MulchControl actuator attachment is available to replace the standard control lever and allow the operator to control MulchControl from the seat using the tractor’s hydraulic control lever. NOTE: To have hydraulic control of the MulchControl baffle, both MulchControl and hydraulic MulchControl actuator attachments must be ordered. The hydraulic MulchControl actuator is an extra-cost option for the MulchControl attachment.Changing from mulching to side discharge or vice versa with the hand lever or hydraulic MulchControl actuator option takes only a few seconds. MulchControl is well-suited to the following mowing situations:
MulchControl puts the operator in control of the clippings. Now the operator can have all the benefits of mulching with the ability to easily change to side-discharge or bagging when needed. MulchControl limitationsWhile in the side-discharge mode, MulchControl will still mulch 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. Other times this could work as a disadvantage:
MulchControl compatibilityMulchControl is a field-installed attachment. Mulching blades are included:
