ELITEWILL Mower Chute Blocker for Zero Turn Mowers, Quick Flip Grass Flap with Handle Lever Fit for Ferris, Exmark, Gravely, Hustler, Toro, Kubota ZTR Lawn Mowers Replace OE ACS6000ULS

What It Is

A quick-flip grass flap that blocks the mower discharge chute on zero-turn mowers, letting you mulch or side-discharge without the flap flopping open. Designed for commercial and residential ZTR decks where you need to switch between bagging, mulching, or discharging on the fly.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: Works on most 42–72-inch zero-turn decks, but measure your chute opening width (typically 5–7 inches) and the distance from the deck edge to the hinge mount.
• Brand/model: Fits Ferris, Exmark, Gravely, Hustler, Toro, and Kubota ZTRs. Replaces OEM part ACS6000ULS. Not universal—check if your deck has a factory chute hinge point or if you need to drill new holes.
• What to check before buying: Confirm your deck’s chute mounting pattern (3-bolt vs. 4-bolt) and the handle lever clearance—some decks with tight frame rails may require minor bracket adjustment. Measure the existing chute flap width; if yours is wider than 7.5 inches, this won’t cover it fully.

Key Things to Know

• Build quality: Heavy-duty steel bracket with a reinforced rubber flap. Holds up to commercial use but the rubber can stiffen in cold weather.
• Installation: Moderate—requires removing the old chute, lining up the bracket, and tightening bolts. No welding, but you may need a drill if your deck lacks pre-drilled holes.
• Handle lever: Spring-loaded, stays in the up (blocked) or down (open) position. Some users report the lever can catch on debris if you mow low to the ground in tall grass.
• Common gotcha: The flap may not seal perfectly on decks with curved or irregular chute openings—check for gaps that could let clippings escape.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own a compatible zero-turn and want a durable, quick-toggle chute blocker without drilling into a new deck. It’s a solid upgrade over flimsy universal flaps, but skip it if your deck has an odd-shaped chute or you need a perfect seal for fine mulching.
