an inlet end;

a hook disposed at the inlet end, the hook defining a channel;

a lever arm extending from the hook in a direction transverse to the channel; and

a protrusion disposed in the channel, the protrusion extending in a first direction transverse to the channel and to the lever arm, the protrusion also extending in a second direction transverse to the channel.

2. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , wherein the protrusion is centrally located in the channel.

3. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , wherein the protrusion extends an equal distance in the first direction and in the second direction.

4. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , wherein the hook includes a support and a flange extending transverse to the support, and wherein the channel is defined as the space between the flange and the support.

5. The discharge accessory of claim 4 , wherein the lever arm extends from the flange in a direction away from the channel, and wherein an outer surface of the lever arm is aligned with an outer surface of the support.

6. The discharge accessory of claim 4 , wherein the protrusion extends from an inner surface of the support opposite the outer surface of the support.

7. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , wherein the lever arm extends from the hook in a direction transverse to a longitudinal axis of the channel.

8. The discharge accessory of claim 7 , wherein a length of the lever arm is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the channel, wherein a width of the lever arm is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the channel, and wherein the width of the lever arm defines a working distance of the lever arm.

9. The discharge accessory of claim 8 , wherein the length of the lever arm is larger than the width of the lever arm.

10. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , further comprising an outlet end unaligned with the inlet end.

11. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , wherein the discharge accessory is formed as a unitary part.

12. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , wherein the hook includes a plurality of indicia configured to guide a user while coupling the discharge accessory to the lawnmower.

13. The discharge accessory of claim 12 , wherein the indicia include arrows.

14. The discharge accessory of claim 1 , further comprising a handle configured to be grasped by a user.

15. The lawnmower of claim 1 , wherein the channel is U-shaped in cross-section taken perpendicular to a length direction of the channel.

16. The discharge accessory of claim 15 , wherein the lever arm extends outside of the U-shaped channel.

17. The discharge accessory of claim 16 , wherein the U-shaped channel has a width that is greater than a width of the protrusion.

18. A lawnmower comprising:

a main body including an ejection port having an interior opening and an exterior opening;

a mounting interface disposed adjacent the exterior opening, the mounting interface including

a first rib,

a second rib spaced apart from the first rib, and

a recess defined between the first rib and the second rib; and

a discharge accessory removably coupled to the mounting interface, the discharge accessory including

an inlet end configured to be aligned with the exterior opening,

a hook disposed at the inlet end and configured to be coupled to the mounting interface between the first rib and the second rib, the hook defining a channel configured to receive a portion of the mounting interface therein when the discharge accessory is coupled to the mounting interface, and

a protrusion disposed in the channel, the protrusion configured to be received within the recess when the discharge accessory is coupled to the mounting interface.

19. The discharge accessory of claim 18 , wherein the channel is U-shaped in cross-section taken perpendicular to a length direction of the channel.
