• For use on X330, X350, X354, and X370 Tractors
• Reducing the amount of recutting enables more power to be used to cut incoming grass, which greatly improves mower capacity. Helps maintain excellent cut quality at faster mowing speeds
• Clean flow of material out of discharge area prevents cut material from interfering with cutting the incoming grass, making it possible for the blades to cut incoming material cleanly.
• Even in mulching mode, cut evenness is improved compared to other designs because the additional depth allows for continuous circulation, optimal recutting, and an even distribution of clippings.
• Exact Adjust deck-leveling system allows for easy and accurate leveling of the mower deck
• Greatly improves mowers capacity to maintain excellent mowing performance in difficult mowing conditions and at higher speeds
• Gives a smooth, even discharge of clippings at all mowing speeds
• Reduces the chance of plugging, especially important when operating in wet, thick, or dense grass and when bagging
• Cut-and-throw chute has a large, optimized inlet which aids in collecting material by using airflow from the large deck opening
• There are few places to catch and hold material on top and underneath the deck. Top of deck stays cleaner, reducing time and effort needed for cleaning and service
• Underside of deck is self-cleaning to maintain optimum performance without buildup of material to interfere with the flow of air and clippings
• Less need to clean and remove buildup of material from underside deck
• The depth of the Accel Deep mower deck minimizes the amount of material that escapes from the front of the deck Limited amount of material to drift onto the operator and mower deck
• Even flow of material discharged out the chute, less recutting results in larger pieces that are less likely to end up on the operator
• Mulching prevents the discharge of material completely and MulchControl makes mulching a practical solution for most mowing situations.
• The flat-top design reduces places for material to build up and makes material that does collect easy to remove.
• Hose connector is included with the mower deck.
• High-lift bagging blades also work well when side discharging material.

• Provides greater strength and durability for longer, trouble-free life.
• Single-bolt adjustment makes setting wheels to the correct height for the cutting height quick and easy.
• With an optional MulchControl system installed (along with the special mulching blades), changing from side discharging to mulching or vice versa is done with the simple flip of a lever or push of an electric switch.
• The cut-and-throw rear bagger can be used with MulchControl by removing the rear MulchControl baffle (A) before installing the bagger chute. The baffle is held in place with two carriage bolts. To return to mulching, the chute needs to be removed and the baffle replaced.
• The warranty is hassle free, with both the mower and the engine covered by a single warranty.
• If the mower is sold, the remaining warranty term is transferable to a new owner.
• Premium features of X300 Series Tractors allow for this longer warranty period, with more coverage than comparable tractors.
• Creates a beautiful looking lawn
• Smaller grass clippings disappear into the lawn canopy
• Reduces fertilizer needs
• Grass clippings are not blown onto the operator, driveways, or flower beds
• No need to dispose of bags of clippings
• The MulchControl system includes an adjustable MulchControl baffle near the discharge chute and fixed baffles to control the flow of material under the deck.
• The MulchControl handle, or an electric one-touch actuator, is on top of the mower deck and is used to open and close the MulchControl baffle.
• When the MulchControl baffle is open, most of the material flows freely out the discharge deflector or into a material collection system.
• When the MulchControl baffle is closed, material stays within the deck and gets chopped into mulch and deposited in the turf.
• For operators who usually mulch, but side discharge when grass gets too long
• For operators who usually side discharge, but would like to close the chute to control clippings in some areas
• For operators who always mulch a main lawn, but often side discharge secondary lawns
• For operators who collect clippings but want to go farther before emptying the material collection system
• When approaching driveways or flower beds where clippings would be undesirable
• When a breeze blows clippings back onto the operator
