Attaching Blades
WARNING: Always protect your hands
while servicing blades by wearing heavy
work gloves or using heavy rags.

mounting hole, are included in the grass catcher kit.
These will replace the 3-in-1 (Discharge/Bag/Mulch)

included with all Cub Cadet kits and are for use with
select Cub Cadet mowers.
