Stigian 1,234 #52 Posted May 3, 2012 I'm having the same problem with my Raider 10 (now with 12hp engine). The engine runs great until the cutter deck is engaged.. Although I managed to get some grass cut yesterday, most of it was done in low ratio 3rd gear!! Granted the rather long grass and low-ish cutting height didn't help, but the engine will still try and bog down when the deck is engaged even if the deck is lifted and above already cut grass!! I will try and get a video today if the rain goes away.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSpaniard4436 2 #53 Posted May 5, 2012 I have had that same problem so I decides to break down my motor and check everthing out and just rebuild it anyhow, since it hadn't been overhauled EVER. Well , found that the dipper from the rod broke off causeing oil not to get to the cylinder, looking into it more. i fouind two tiny rolled pins in the oil pan which is what caused the dipper to break. I was lucky i decided to tear it down because i had some cylinder scaring which i honed down and check my tolerance and they were still good. i ordered a rebuild kit and fixed the govener and all it good now.
