MTD 731-3316 Lawn Mower Mulching Plug

The MTD 731-3316 Lawn Mower Mulching Plug works by blocking the discharge opening and directing grass clippings back into the deck for repeated cutting during operation. It maintains the circulation of clippings beneath the deck, allowing the blades to continue chopping the substance into smaller part before dispersal. This component is positioned at the side discharge section of compatible units, where it fits securely to close off the chute opening. Constructed to match the mowers discharge configuration, the plug supports mulching operations while remaining aligned with the deck housing during use.
