My woods rd 60 mower is clumping up the clippings between the rear wheels of the mower. It is a rear discharge deck that should discharge all across the 5 ft opening at the back. All the grass seems to come out in a section about the width of the center blade. The grass is dry and I am only removing about 1 inch of grass. The blades are new OE blades. Correct part number is stamped on them. Tractor rpm or travel speed has little to no effect on clumps. I also have changed the height bushings on the rear to see if that would help I saw very little change. I also tried mowing a section without the rear chain shield. It looked better with the chains since they helped knock down the piles. Woods refers to these blades as "high suction " I'm wondering if that means they try to keep the clippings sucked up under the deck? The yard looks great after I run my sweeper over it. The grass has a uniform cut except for the piles of clippings.
I also cut a section with my old John Deere with side discharge belly mower. It had no problem cutting the grass and throwing the clippings so I don't feel like I'm trying to remove too much grass at a time. Even in short grass areas the clippings stay in the middle but it is a smaller pile.
Any thoughts?
