Stan50 213 #1 Posted 4 hours ago Convinced by @peter lena, I cut the baffles out, and did some minor repairs. I hope that will extend life of the deck and shorten cleaning time for sure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 12,688 #2 Posted 3 hours ago As I recall, at least one model of the 3 blade recycler deck had bolt in removable baffles - THAT sounds like a solution & a good idea... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 68,127 #3 Posted 2 hours ago My baffles removed themselves one day while mowing. One side fell down, dug into the ground and stopped me dead in my tracks. Had to back it up all the way to the shop to remove the rest. Those big clods of grass that built up at the baffle intersections would have rotted the deck out. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
