ABSTRACT:
A lawn mower comprises a housing enclosing a rotary cutting blade. The housing includes a continuous sidewall having therein a side grass discharge opening and a top wall extending from the sidewall and having therein a top grass discharge opening. A deflector is located on the housing adjacent to the side discharged opening and is operative for movement between an open position permitting the escape of grass clippings through the side discharge opening and a closed position blocking the escape of grass clippings through the side discharge opening. The deflector is biased toward the open position. A grass discharge chute is detachably attached on the housing in communication with the top discharge opening. The chute includes a tab member which engages the deflector and moves the deflector from its open position to its closed position against the action of the bias during attachment of the grass discharge chute on the housing. The tab member also maintains the deflector in its closed position against the action of the bias when the grass discharge chute is attached on the housing.
