This shield-trailing is designed for use with Toro lawn mowers. It is an authentic item that is supplied directly from the original equipment manufacturer. The component is secured to the mower's deck to prevent the grass from shooting out. It is an identical replacement for a damaged or a missing shield-trailing that was installed on a new unit. One durable plastic part is included. Check the owners manual for your model for the correct application. Replacing it is a simple task that should only require a screwdriver to remove and replace the screws that hold the shield-trailing to the deck.
