My used GR2100 came with the mulch kit installed. While it does a very nice job of making the clippings disappear, it seems no matter how dry the grass is, the rear tires load up with grass. If the grass is wet at all, the tires really load up & spin the grass onto the top of the mower deck. So I've decided to remove the huge mulch plug underneath the deck (it goes across the entire front of the deck) and go back to mowing the way I always have. I might make up my own mulch plug, just to cover the side discharge, for the leaves in the fall.
Has anyone experienced trying to remove the mulch plug while the deck is installed? I'm thinking I'm going to have to remove the deck & blades in order to be able to remove the plug. Also, has anyone got a tip on the easiest way to reinstall the PTO universal (drive shaft), while pulling back on the collar? Seems like a difficult reach.
