Unfortunately Agri Fab does not make a Mow-N-Vac deck adapter for any of the new eXmark mowers. I have a 50 inch deck on my Quest S series mower so to make the adapter fit I needed to do a custom measure and cut.
We take you through the steps on how to measure and cut for a tight fit.

Thank you for sharing your installation of the bagger deflector. Excellent video! 👍👍👍👍👍

You’re welcome

I'm actually the controls engineer at Agri-Fab, I've forwarded your "lack of updated template" concern to the design engineer for this product.

@CountryLivingExperience 3 года назад

I really appreciate that. We made this video a while ago. I wonder if they updated it in the last few years. We now have a new Toro Titan but I have not checked for a template for that.

@electromechanician 3 года назад

@@CountryLivingExperience not since the current engineer took that line, but he's only been there a year or so. I'll forward this info as well.

Thanks, this video was very informing and will assist me in making a template for my Gravely mower

Awesome. Glad it was helpful.

Thanks for the kind comment. We appreciate it.

I think if you moved your initial cut more towards the middle you eliminate the sag by maintaining the integrity of the lower lip. Since the blades do not go below the deck, clearance should not be an issue. Great video

@firstname6208 4 года назад

thanks, I have the exact same mower in the TORO line. I happened to be in my sears store and they had an agri fab chipper vac they wanted desperately to get off the floor. I had to oblige them, the price was 65% off list. :)

@CountryLivingExperience 4 года назад

Nice find. Sears is trying to move everything they can.

@andrewdonohue1853 5 лет назад

I am considering buying one of these and hooking it up to a vintage mower... An antique really. I have a 1948 farmall cub with a danco c3 belly mower

@CountryLivingExperience 5 лет назад

Cool. It should work. Just check the dimensions before purchasing it.

@richarsbritt4987 3 месяца назад

I left a quarter to 3/8s of an inch to keep it from bowing into the blade

@ritreeservicepros 2 года назад

Thanks for the video. If don't mind me asking - where did you buy the steel strips?

@CountryLivingExperience 2 года назад

You’re welcome. We purchased them at our local hardware store.

@timothyneu5786 4 года назад

Great video, but I can't find the follow-up video you mention on how to attach the adaptor to the mower deck. Can you please provide a link to that video? Thanks!

@CountryLivingExperience 4 года назад

Sure. It was the very next video we did on our DIY leaf vacuum project......ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-529T84Yerj0.html

@Andrew-hg6hp 5 лет назад

Did you happen to measure the overall dimensions. Thinking of getting this but not sure if itll fit on a kubota bx2200 with a 60 inch deck. The opening seems bigger than the boot

@CountryLivingExperience 5 лет назад

I didn't but I can get back to you on that. I had about another 1.5 inches to play with on that adapter.

@ELCEV 4 года назад

Bought it and it works, but if the grass is wet at all (I mean even if the dog takes a leak) it will plug up in minutes. Going to remove it and put it back on during a dry spell. Thanks for the good video though.

@CountryLivingExperience 4 года назад

Very true. Without a powered impeller the grass/leaves need to be very dry.

@michaelmiller6843 5 лет назад

Nice review. Any chance you will do review of the mower itself?

We did a review a few months prior. Here is the link: If You're Thinking About Buying An Exmark Mower, Watch This Video! (New 2018 Quest S Review) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CRjeuh0L6Mc.html

I am getting a clog on the chute with dry leafs, does it happen to you guys? (I install this chute on a craftman 42" deck tractor mower) if so, how do you avoid it? thanks

@CountryLivingExperience 2 года назад

We do get clogs. When I drive slowly, it eliminates most of the clogging.

@morrischicago Год назад

Agree with driving slowly when the layer of leaves get heavy, but also adjusting the hose helped me eliminate most of the clogs. I removed a couple ft from the hose that I originally had it installed with and then make sure the hose hangs with the least amount of sag and curves. I used a bungee cord to hang from the swinging arm and depending on where I have it around the hose greatly influences how often it clogs. Usually when I get it connected to the mower it takes an hour or so adjusting to get the best flow.

@azsteve48 4 года назад

Couldn't you press a sheet of paper against the opening and get an imprint of the shape?

@CountryLivingExperience 4 года назад

You could try that.

@igoski1582 4 года назад

You say on this video to "make sure you watch my next video". But I search on THIS video and can not find any link to THAT next video and the You Tube auto play for the next video is not your next video. Frustrating.
