Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Will this side discharge chute deflector fit any 42" Toro or Exmark deck? A: Fitment depends on the specific model and serial number of your machine; this deflector is designed for Toro TimeCutter and select Exmark 42" decks that call for OEM part 137-7046, so always cross-check your owner's manual before ordering.

Q: Does the deflector include mounting hardware and fasteners? A: Most side discharge chute deflectors of this type reuse the original bolts, nuts, or washers already attached to the deck; confirm whether your existing hardware is intact, as fasteners are typically not included with the replacement deflector itself.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
