    Why EarthWise DT71613AA motor does not start?
    • R
      Roberto ShortJul 29, 2025
      If the EarthWise Lawn and Garden Equipment motor won't start, there are several potential causes. First, make sure the unit is properly plugged in. If it is, check your power supply to ensure there is electricity. Inspect the cable for any defects, and repair or replace it if necessary. Also, a defective safety switch or plug could be the problem, in which case you should arrange for repair. If the overheat protection has activated, wait about 15 minutes for the motor to cool down before using it again. The working depth might be too large, so set it to a shorter depth. Finally, check if the raker cylinder is blocked and remove any blockage, or if the grass is too long, mow the lawn before operation.

    What to do if EarthWise Lawn and Garden Equipment makes abnormal noises?

      If your EarthWise Lawn and Garden Equipment is making abnormal noises, switch it off and wait until the raker comes to a complete stop. Then, remove any jammed objects, as the raker cylinder might be jammed. It's also possible that the cogged belt is slipping, which means the dethatcher must be repaired. Lastly, check if any bolts, nuts, or other components are loose and tighten them.

      If your EarthWise Lawn and Garden Equipment is producing poor results, the working depth might be too small; set it to the correct working depth. Another possibility is that the raker or scarifier is worn, so replace it if damaged or worn. Also, check if the discharge opening is blocked. If so, empty the grass catcher bag and remove any blockage.

      If your EarthWise Lawn and Garden Equipment is vibrating abnormally, it could be due to a damaged or worn raker or scarifier, which should be replaced. Alternatively, the working depth might be too large; adjust it to the correct working depth.
