Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

This unit is NEW used it for about 2 1/2 Hr. Two times while in 1st gear going along it chattered for about 3-4 sec, Then it moved along fine.

Then while I was at the end of the drive w/ 8-10" of snow in 1st gear it stoped moving, The wheel's were not spining it just stoped moving.

I put it to rev. It moved in Rev great, then back to 1st & it went along fine till it did it again.I did the same move Rev went backwards then it was fine again.

I spoke with my dealer he said O just a cable adj. I will send someone to your house to adj it. Well when I got home it was gone. they took it in to make repairs. Just wondering if anyone had this happen to them.

My Dealer seems great he has been in bussiness for a long time My first buy from them, so far GREAT SERVICE.

ben i think i started that thread.    jonathan 's conclusion is thet there is no set screw. i am not convinced. but the alignment is pretty close. i  also did a search to se if their were other threads. saw none.

This one?

robmints, yes. that was the topic i started.  the resolution  or lack thereof  was not quite satisfying.

ben , u are 100% correct it "all happens" under the dash.

Jonathan, is there only one gold spring  that holds the lever that catches the piece if steel that the cams push?

I guess it works when the machine is running duty to vibration?

Yes, just one spring. I don't think vibration is involved in the operation of it.

JONATHAN, I  AGREE THAT VIBRATION IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A PART OF IT,,,,,,,,BUT ABSENT THAT IT DOES NOT CATCH.

WONDER IF ITS ALL TIE DTO THE WELDING OF THE SPEED SELECTOR?

ps excuse the caps.  i look at the key board and not the screen. 

I’ll look at mine tonight. If I remember correctly, that flat piece is snapped back by the spring to hold the right hand cam in place. This keeps the right handle down when the left handle is down and you take your hand off the right handle.

I'll also see if I can get a measurement in regards to the location of the notched piece under the dash so that you can compare it with yours.

Thanx.
