Heavy-duty Deck
 -
Extra-deep, 5.5-inch deck is fabricated from heavy-gauge formed steel with a reinforced anvil edge -
Specially designed cutting chambers enhance airflow for better cut quality -
Deck easily converts from side discharge to optional Down Discharge™ mulching or PowerVac™ collection -
Sentry™ spindles with massive, 8-inch flanges anchored in a 6-bolt pattern, spread the force of impact for greater strength -
Spindle planes are fabricated from double-layered formed steel laminate and combine with the spindles to form a triple-strength deck to keep blades level and deliver a high-quality cut. -
Sentry™ spindle guards shield spindle housing and seal lower bearings from fiber wrap and dirt ingestion |
