Why won't my Ariens 911514 Lawn Mower engine start?
- G
  gregorymitchellAug 4, 2025
  If your Ariens Lawn Mower engine won't start, several factors could be the cause. First, check the fuel level and fill the tank if it's empty or low. Next, verify the spark plug wire connection. Also, inspect the engine/brake control cable for any detachment, breakage, or improper adjustment, and adjust, repair, or replace it as needed. Finally, for electric start models, ensure the battery is charged or replace it if necessary.

  Patricia BrownAug 9, 2025
  If the self-propelled drive on your Ariens Lawn Mower isn't engaging, start by ensuring the traction drive bail is engaged. Check the drive belt to see if it's out of position and adjust it if necessary. Also, inspect the drive belt for wear or damage and replace it if needed. Make sure the rear wheels are in the same cutting height positions. Adjust or replace the friction wheel if its engagement is not adjusted properly or damaged. Check the idler and spring, and adjust as necessary. Finally, check the drive cable and adjust, repair, or replace it if required.

What to do if my Ariens Lawn Mower engine is hard to restart?

  Candice ColeAug 13, 2025
  If your Ariens Lawn Mower engine is difficult to restart, it might be due to the mower being clogged with grass. Clear the clippings from under the mower. To prevent this, allow the mower to clear clippings before shutting off the engine.

Why does my Ariens 911514 Lawn Mower not disperse grass evenly?
- C
  Christina PatelAug 17, 2025
  Uneven grass dispersal from your Ariens Lawn Mower can occur for a few reasons. If you're removing too much grass per cutting, try raising the cutting height. Also, if the grass is too wet, allow it to dry before mowing. Mowing too fast can also cause this issue, so try mowing slower.

Why isn't my Ariens Lawn Mower bagging clippings?
- V
  Vicki HayesAug 21, 2025
  If your Ariens Lawn Mower isn't bagging clippings, it could be that the grass bag is overfilled; empty the grass bag and avoid overfilling it. Another reason could be that the mulching plug is installed; remove the mulching plug to enable bagging.

What to do if the wheel drive doesn't engage on my Ariens 911514?
- J
  Jason GarzaAug 27, 2025
  If the wheel drive on your self-propelled Ariens Lawn Mower isn't engaging, there are several things to check. First, make sure the wheel drive control is engaged. Inspect the drive belt to ensure it's in the correct position. If the belt is worn or damaged, it will need to be replaced. Also, verify that the rear wheels are set at the same cutting height. Other potential issues include a detached idler spring, a detached or broken wheel drive control cable, a friction disc that is not adjusted properly or is damaged, damaged bearings or debris in the gear set. For assistance with the idler spring, friction disc, bearings, or gear set, contact your dealer.

How to improve a poor cut with my Ariens Lawn Mower?
- S
  Scott JenkinsAug 31, 2025
  If your Ariens Lawn Mower is providing a poor cut, consider these factors: the blade may be worn (refer to the CHECK MOWER BLADE section on page 17 for inspection instructions). Also, if you are removing too much grass per cutting, raise the cutting height. If the grass is too wet, allow it to dry before mowing. Finally, if your mowing speed is too fast, slow down.
