    What to do if the belt is shredding on BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories?
    • S
      Sarah FoxAug 15, 2025
      If the belt on your BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories is snapping, shredding, burning, or worn in a specific place, it could be due to several reasons: * Not enough tension on the belt because the belt is worn, the spring is worn out, or the tensioner’s pivot isn’t well lubricated. * Imperfections in the pulleys. * The belt rubs on a belt guide. To address this, replace the belt or the spring, grease all the pivoting points, replace the pulleys, or reposition the belt guide.

      If your BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories blower vibrates or is abnormally noisy, it could be due to a damaged pulley or bearing. In that case, replace the pulley or the bearing. Also, the fan could be damaged, so remove and straighten or replace the fan. Finally, a damaged belt can cause the problem, so replace the belt.

    How to stop grass from escaping my BOB-CAT 970474 BOSS-VAC PRO collection system?

      If grass is escaping from the collection system of your BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories, it could be due to a damaged seal, so replace the broken seal. It's also possible that the collection system isn't fully installed, for example, the discharge baffle under the deck is missing, so recheck the installation of the collection system and deck kit. Also, make sure that the lid is closed and latched properly.

      Shari DavisAug 26, 2025
      If the chute on your BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories blocks easily, it may be because the grass is cut too long or it is too humid. Adjust the mower deck to the highest position for the first cut, then lower the mower for a second cut. Also, wait for the grass to dry out.

    How to fix collector that doesn't lock easily on BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories?
    • C
      Christine DominguezAug 31, 2025
      If the collector doesn’t lock in place easily on your BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories, it might be due to several reasons: 1. Collector slots are not well installed on both sides grooves from the bottom pin. 2. Mounting pins are not installed exactly at the right position. 3. Mounting hitch is not installed exactly at the right position. 4. Latch is still secured in place by knobs and carriage bolts. 5. Too much friction on latches. Make sure both sides are well installed on the bottom pin. Loose mounting bolts until collector clip easily in place, then re tighten mounting bolts. Remove two knobs and carriage bolts (one on each side). Lubricate latches pivot point.

    • A
      Alexander RamseySep 7, 2025
      If the discharge tube escapes from the chute when the mower deck is lowered on your BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories, the rubber latch may be broken or not installed at full tension. Replace the latch or install it at full tension.

    • A
      Ashley PriceSep 10, 2025
      If the tube is in contact with the tire on your BOB-CAT Lawn Mower Accessories, it is caused by not using a good set of holes. Change the set of holes to rotate the tube in order to clear the tire.
