• Poor Grass Discharge: This can be due to dull blades, excessive grass buildup under the deck, or incorrect blade lift. Ensure blades are clean and sharp, and that the "wing" of the blade is pointing upwards.

If problems persist, consult your authorized Spartan Mowers dealer or a qualified service technician.
