OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Collectors Corner Cylinder Rover reel mower moves when it shouldn't!

My rover 45 has started to move without pushing the lever down. Now I fixed this problem once before but I can't remember how. It is also engaged when I try to pull it backwards when it's off as well. Any help tips

Hi Harris

Might just be a cable adjustment ?

Hi Harris,

Take the chain case off and see how tight the chains are, have you adjusted the reel downwards lately by any chance to have more contact with the bed knife ?

Maybe check the long bolt thru the drive sprocket isn’t to tight

Hi Troy,

This is also a good suggestion and is part of the chain adjustment factor issue I'd say. There are a quite a few components that must work in complete harmony so that the drive system functions correctly.
