Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure your mower is powered off and the key is removed. Locate the discharge chute on the side of your deck and align the deflector hinges with the factory-provided mounting points. Ensure the spring tension is correctly applied so the deflector remains in the downward position during operation.
Compatibility List:
- Mountfield 115/98, 1438 M-SD, 1538 SD, 1538H-SD, 1538M-SD
- Mountfield Freedom 38e-SD, MTF 1438 M-SD, MTF 98H SD, MTF 98M SD, T38M-SD
Care: After each use, wipe down the internal surface of the deflector to remove caked-on grass, which can dry and impede the discharge flow. Inspect the hinge points monthly for signs of wear or rust to maintain smooth operation.
