The control console includes an easy-to-read fuel gauge, located to the right of the operator station and includes the following: Digital display, ignition switch, power take-off (PTO) control, engine speed control, spring-loaded engine choke control so it is not inadvertently left ons, and space for an optional light kit switch or/and additional electric control switch.

The 48-in. (122-cm), and 54-in. (137-cm) Accel Deep Mower Decks are a forged-steel, deep, flat-top design that delivers excellent cut quality, productivity, cleanliness, durability, and versatility. Optimal performance and dispersion of clippings is provided, even at faster mowing speeds or in tall grass.

The deep mower-deck forging delivers high productivity, which gets the job done fast. It allows room for the cut and suspended material to exit the deck quickly, reducing the amount of recutting so more power is available to process incoming grass. Even in mulching mode, cut evenness is improved compared to other designs because the additional depth allows for continuous circulation, optimal re-cutting, and an even distribution of clippings.

Large discharge opening is both high and wide to handle more material which gives a smooth, even discharge of clippings at all mowing speeds

Cleaning a mower deck is one of the most frequent maintenance activities. The flat-top shape of the deck forging is optimal for keeping itself and the operator clean. A wash port and hose connector are provided to make cleaning the underside of the mower deck easy.

Superior durability is designed in Accel Deep Mower Decks with strong spindle pockets to keep the blades aligned, even after years of tough service. Accel Deep Mower Decks are also designed for maximum versatility, providing the greatest ease in changing from one mower discharge mode to another

The MulchControl system for Accel Deep Mower Decks is an optional field-installed attachment and makes mulching practical for many mowing situations because it not only does an excellent job of mulching, but it also allows the mower to be easily converted for times when it is more desirable to side discharge or collect lawn material. MulchControl is an innovative, simple design that is easy to use and maintain: the MulchControl attachment includes baffles to control the flow of material under the deck. MulchControl puts the operator in control of the clippings. The operator can have all the benefits of mulching with the ability to easily change to side discharge or bagging when needed. While in the side-discharge mode, MulchControl still mulches about one third of the material. Therefore, the side-discharge mode is essentially a partial mulch mode. This can be an advantage when side discharging or bagging, as it helps reduce the amount of material being discharged. Other times this could work as a disadvantage:
