Product Description

?

This baffle is a genuine OEM component designed for use with Husqvarna, Poulan, and Jonsered riding lawn mowers and garden tractors. It mounts beneath the mower deck and helps direct grass clippings for efficient discharge and mulching. If your original baffle is damaged or missing, this high-quality left-side replacement—made from durable plastic—offers an exact match to restore proper function. It is sold individually, and the right baffle, center baffle, and mounting hardware are sold separately. A wrench set is required for installation, and it’s recommended to consult your model’s diagram for accurate placement.

Left deck baffle had worn loose and had been bent by blade.

Donald from JACKSONVILLE, North Carolina

Difficulty Level:

Total Repair Time:
30 - 60 mins
Tools:
Socket set, Wrench set
Parts Used:
531168701, 532187256
1. Raised the mower to give access to the underside of deck.
2. Removed damaged left baffle and replaced 2 worn out carriage bolts which loosened the baffle to allow for damage.
3. Installed new left baffle replacement which is made of metal like the original and not heavy plastic as described on the website.
4. Removed and replaced damaged blade as well as other worn blades.
*Greatest challenge was raising and securing the front of the tractor to gain access to the deck. One needs a good hydraulic jack and stands. The rest is a piece of cake.

Jack up mower, remove deck, pressure wash and replace baffles. While mower is jacked up, remove front wheels and replace axle bearings, there are two on each axle. Be careful when removing the bearing protector covers as they are very fragile. Repair is fairly straight forward; hardest part is removing deck from tractor and reinstalling .
