  If your Billy Goat Cutter will not cut or has poor cutting performance, it could be due to a dull or damaged blade, so sharpen or replace the blade. Debris locked against the blade can also cause this issue, so remove any debris. The engine might be running at too low RPM. Sod that is too dry can also affect cutting performance, so irrigate the area where you are cutting sod.
