What to do if Craftsman 944.364780 Lawn Mower loses power?
- RRichard CollinsAug 16, 2025
If your Craftsman Lawn Mower is experiencing a loss of power, consider these possible causes: 1. **Cutting Height:** If the rear of the mower housing or the cutting blade is dragging in heavy grass, raise the cutting height. 2. **Grass Volume:** If you're cutting too much grass at once, raise the cutting height. 3. **Air Filter:** A dirty air filter can restrict airflow, leading to power loss. Clean or replace the air filter. 4. **Debris Buildup:** Accumulated grass, leaves, and trash under the mower can hinder performance. Clean the underside of the mower housing. 5. **Oil Level:** Too much oil in the engine can cause issues. Check the oil level. 6. **Walking Speed:** If you're walking too fast, the mower might struggle. Cut at a slower walking speed.
