Does this mower come with a mulching kit?

The mower comes with a two plastic parts: a side discharge chute and a mulching plug. You install one or the other over the hole in the metal guard ring depending on what mode you want. The mulching plug just covers the hole so grass clippings can no longer escape from the side. The manual does not say you have to change the blade if you want mulching mode.

Yes, it's a very versatile mower. It comes with the attachments for mulch, bag, or discharge. They are very quick to attach, to go from mulch to discharge literally takes about 5 seconds.

Yes, this mower mulches. I do it with mine as a regular style of mowing. It needs an attachment to do it, however. I ordered mine right after I got the mower 3 years ago. A cover plate fastens in place with two short bungee cords, there are two ready made holes in the mower deck for the hooks. If you are shopping for a mower, you need to know that this mower does not turn on a dime. The turning circle is almost as big a for a subcompact car. Rather than backing and turning I mow in overlapping ovals to get the job done. By the way, if I get through the year without something breaking it will be the first mowing season without something going bad on the mower. Yes, this mower mulches.

It came with a Standard blade. I think you have to order the mulching blade separately. I hope this helped :)

no, just one season but it is still awesome. Finally quiet and clean air mowing. We bought the 19" wide mower. This will cut very deep (tall) grass by tipping front end up and plowing through slowly. No complaints except the fail safe switch which they improved on another of their products, so this may work fine now. We have a full acre with half of it in grass.

The mulching kit works great. You'll only have to rake if you have a ton of leaves, and even then I think you can just leave them. The leaves get chopped up pretty finely.

It has a blade on it. I bought the mulching blade for mine though so that it does not blow the grass all over the yard and look ugly though. You can get a bagger for the back to pick up leaves and the cut grass clippings which requires some high lift blades included in that package too if cleanliness is a concern.It does not have a string though... just one 26" blade in the middle inside a mower deck with several options for the kind of blade you use.

Yes, it is a mulching blade. Mine was sharp & ready to install when it arrived.

The unit comes with a bag that attaches directly to mower. If you do not use bag the back closes off allowing the clippings to go on the ground.

No. Mulching is unavoidable. Everthing collected goes thru the metal blades and gets mulched into the bag.

Yes It Does. It is a powerful and sturdy mower and I have learned to like it despite my original negative comments regarding its design. I did not believe or feel that the lever arrangement to raise and lower the cutting blade was sound, stopped the blade when raised, and that it would perform well over the long run. I still feel it could have been engineered better, but otherwise this is a really solid machine and it performs its task very well. Now glad that I bought it.

The Husqvarna 24K48Fast is the mower that I have as well. I had to add a large washer to the rear stud so the bungee cord wouldn't slip off and it works just fine. In answer to your question NO the proper kit is only available through Husqvarna and cost plus shipping is over $130. The mulch blades are the same but the mulch cap rubber bungee cord attachments are located a little bit differently. The cap fits perfectly covering the discharge chute completely

They do not require the mulching kit. I got Gerber gators when I originally purchased my Z445 and these work just as well, although they are heavier (thicker and wider)
