Zusammenfassung:A conveyor apparatus can be (removably) secured to a turf maintenance machine and efficiently transport turf clippings out from a mowing implement of the turf maintenance apparatus. An opening in the conveyor apparatus defines an input that is positioned adjacent to a discharge port of a mow deck when secured to the turf maintenance machine. The input therefore receives turf clippings ejected by the turf maintenance machine. A driven element within the conveyor apparatus propels the turf clippings along an interior length to an output. The conveyor apparatus can be operable with a bagging mode of the turf maintenance machine, and can be removed and replaced with a discharge chute to implement a side discharge mode for the turf maintenance machine.
