Raptor Heat Shield

[Rob45679]

Installed the heat shield my dealer warrantied for the burnt spots in my grass. It came with the shield and hardware. No box or instructions. But it was a direct bolt on. Took about 3 min.

Did you show them pictures of your grass or did you just tell them? I'm not having that issue yet but would like to install the guard to prevent future problems.

I took some pics just in case. They didn't ask to see them. It was really a no hassle situation.

Do you have a part number for the shield? My dealer won't honor a warranty claim so I'll have to buy it...

I don't have the part number. I will try and get the part number from my dealer.

maybe i'm missing something, but how did the exhaust burn your grass??

I guess burned was the wrong word to use. It dehydrated the grass under the muffler where I had parked the mower. It would take a couple of days for the spot to show. The spot would green back up after a week or so.

Just a quick question, in the very first picture there appears to be a bolt in the trailer hitch hole. Is this part of the deflector assembly? If so do you have to purchase a new type trailer hitch. I own an Raptor SD 54. Thanks
