Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |

| Poor cutting performance | Dull blade, improper height setting, wet grass | Sharpen/replace blade, adjust cutting height, mow when dry |
| Uneven cutting | Uneven tire pressure, bent blade, worn deck | Check tire pressure, inspect blade, examine deck |
| Excessive vibration | Unbalanced blade, loose components, bent crankshaft | Balance blade, tighten bolts, inspect crankshaft |
