Troy Bilt 370 self propelled walk behind mower. Hours old. 1st pass using grass catcher. Grass blowing everywhere. Checked grass bag and chute/door...no apparent issues. Mulch chute on side is on tight. Been on hold with TB 30 mins and counting. What am I missing? Is it just defective?
Mine works,great,take bag off and it will mulch it and look like it's being bagged up.Is your grass knee high?Do you have it low enough?Here's your manual,read the part on grass catcher and see if your doing something wrong,make sure grass door is open.Check your blade to make sure they didn't put it on upside down.The cut part should be facing out. http://pdf.lowes.com/operatingguides/043033566280_oper.pdf

I know this is a dumb question, but is the blade on upside down? This is common mistake to make, and is the blade properly balanced and sharp. I would definitely make sure of these items first. From the way you describe it, I can't think of anything else.

You should inspect the belt, this may mean that you have to remove a cover.
If really helpful, please rate.

I'd check your blade and see if it needs sharpening. The mulching mowers need to cut then vacuum the grass up and then cut it again. They must be properly sharpened for this process to work properly.
