Hi everybody,
I have a brand new 2013 Zoom 42 with the mulching kit installed by the dealer. From the beginning, i new that there was something wrong. Every time I use it, there's grass clipping is flying in the air and falling on the deck, the leg rest and all over my legs. The grass is coming mainly from the front right side of the deck just behind the front right tire. First I ask my dealer if it was normal and they says to slow down while mowing and to not cut to much grass at the same time. All of this make sense and I tried it without much success. I then contact ariens client support and we manage to find that the dealer forgot to remove the rear baffle (the one that have a "3" shape) when installing the kit. I removed it and now it's better but still far from perfect. I'm wondering if the dealer can have reinstalled something on the wrong side (blade, strap, other).
The other thing is that it also leave grass clipping chunck everywhere on my grass and the clipping is not that small. I read other post where people tell that the grass clipping is so small that it's kind of magically disappearing. This is really not my case.
Can somebody with the mulching kit installed tell if it's normal to have to always clean the mower (and myself) after each use?
Thank you.
