peter lena 8,631 #1 Posted July 7, 2023 ever do a look under your mower deck with a mirror ? frequently keep in statis with whats going on . use a 6 / 8" or larger mirror and a light to show me whats going on . all decks are clean and black with oil / heavy gear spray , dry that sheds any grass debris , always cut at highest setting for more discharge / venting . was cutting high grass last night due to frequent rain and hot sun growth . entire unit rotation was smooth and no whyining noise . touched up movement areas , with lubricant . if it had build up , would have made a change to eliminate it. pete 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
