Lawn Mower 541644001 Side Discharge Chute Compatible With Ryobi 21" Cordless Mowers RY401014 541644 B RY401020 RY401014 RY401016 RY401015 RY401016US RY401014US RY401017

What It Is

This is a side discharge chute (OEM part #541644001) designed for Ryobi 21-inch cordless mowers. It redirects grass clippings out the side of the deck instead of bagging or mulching, ideal for tall or wet grass where bagging clogs quickly.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower’s model number. This chute fits Ryobi 21-inch cordless models: RY401014, RY401014US, RY401015, RY401016, RY401016US, RY401017, and RY401020. Check your deck size—must be exactly 21 inches. It’s a genuine Ryobi OEM part, so aftermarket compatibility is not guaranteed. Measure the chute mounting area (width and clip slots) against your current one if possible. No other brand or deck size works.

Key Things to Know

• Installation is tool-free: clips onto the deck in seconds; no screws or bolts needed.
• Quality matches OEM: molded plastic, durable enough for typical residential use, but can crack if hit hard.
• Common gotcha: ensure the chute’s locking tabs align with your mower’s deck slots—older Ryobi 21-inch models (e.g., RY401140) use a different design.
• Not for mulching: only use when you want clippings spread, not bagged or mulched.

Should You Buy It

If you own one of the listed Ryobi 21-inch cordless mowers and need a reliable, easy-to-install side discharge chute for tall or wet grass, this is a solid choice at $18.99. It’s a direct OEM replacement that works without modifications. Skip it if your model isn’t on the list or you prefer mulching.
