ABSTRACT:
A brush mower having deflection plate for reducing the amount of cut vegetation forwardly discharged from the intake opening at the front end of the deck. The mower additionally comprises a motor connected to the deck. The latter includes a top portion and a skirt portion extending downwardly on three sides from the top portion, thereby defining a cutting chamber. The deck also includes a blade rotatably mounted within the cutting chamber and a side discharge opening. The deflection plate has a height that is less wide than the height of the skirt portion. The deflection plate changes the airflow in the cutting chamber so that cut vegetation is directed out the side discharge opening, rather than out the intake opening.
