Operation
The deflector shield is used to block off the right side portion of the swath width. It should be used in the
“ON” position (down) together with the auxiliary shutoff in the closed position (done by pushing the control
knob forward). IMPORTANT: Turf products will be applied excessively at the center of the swath if
the auxiliary shutoff is not closed when the deflector is in use. Always remember to re-open the
auxiliary shutoff (by pulling the control knob back) when returning to a full swath width.
