I am a woman, and haven't clue what I'm doing here- I need the mower to run before my husband is able to look at it! My 11 year old is mowing lawns for jobs and community service.
So bear with me!!
The mower deck, has a plastic piece that runs up over the wheels. This plastic piece covers the drive belt mechanism.
The screw hole cracked on this plastic piece- which I'm not finding a name for? But it seems to be blocking the blade. The pull cord is tight... and I'm hoping if I can somehow fix the plastic piece, it will free the blade allowing the pull cord to work?!
He was mid- mow and we heard a loud sound and thought he hit something. But I think it was the blade hitting the plastic piece. The pull cord hasn't worked since!
So I guess all I'm really asking here is:
- this sounds like a hopeful plan?!
- what might this (large) plastic piece be called??
- how might you fix the screw hole issue without a whole new piece? Or if it needs replaced... is someplace like Ace and okay place?!
