Hi
Thanks for your response.
I am however confused.
When I took the outside casing covering the gear area I found cork at the bottom of the casing.
It appears however from where you have directed me that the cork is in the middle of the drive shaft that controls the spinning blades. So how it got into the casing is a mystery!
So now I am totally confused as the blades are spinning fine.
When however I try and engage the self propelling drive by squeezing the handle I initially had some drive but very little.
I then discovered the bolt that adjusts the leaver for the handle.
When I initially adjusted it the machine took of like a rocket then stopped half way through mowing.
Are you saying that all the transfer happens in that centre gearing area and that it is not just the engagement of the cutting blades?
Sorry for the long question just trying to understand.
Ron
