Bought a new T2290KWT with 48" mower deck about 2 months ago. Now I've decided I would like a mulching cover plate for the deck. I'm sure that several months ago I read that Kubota makes one for that deck. However, when I called my dealer he says he doesn't see one available. Does anyone know where I could find one of these ?

I was able to get one for the 48” deck on my bx1870. I’m not sure if they use the same mower deck as the mower you just bought. I can check for the part number on the invoice if they broke it out.

You may have already considered this but Im just curious that when you block that with the plate, is it recommended that you install different (mulching) blades ?

Well, at the time I saw the plate it said that different blades were an option. That's what caught my attention because I could try one without swapping blades. But now I feel like I was seeing things.

I guess you will know if it doesnt either cut as good and/or clumps the grass behind you, I dont know. I hope it works out.
