What to do if my Ego Power+ LM2130 fails to start?

  Robert WrightAug 14, 2025
  If your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower won't start, several factors could be the cause. Begin by charging the battery pack. Ensure the battery pack is correctly mounted in the battery compartment until you hear a click. If the battery pack or mower circuitry is too hot, allow them to cool down. Make sure the side rails are fully extended and the clamps are locked. Check that the handle is engaged in one of the three operating positions. Finally, inspect the mower deck for clogs and ensure the blade moves freely.

Why does my Ego Power+ Lawn Mower cut unevenly?

  Uneven cutting with your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower can stem from a few reasons. The blade may be dull, requiring sharpening or replacement. The grass-cutting height might not be set properly, so move the deck height to a higher setting. Also, the blade could be assembled incorrectly; reassemble it.

Why doesn't my Ego Power+ LM2130 mulch properly?
- J
  Jeffrey MayAug 20, 2025
  If your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower isn't mulching correctly, it could be due to wet grass clippings sticking to the underside of the deck; wait until the grass dries before mowing. Alternatively, the mower might be set to cut too much grass at once, so raise the deck to a higher cutting-height setting.

Why is the running time of my Ego Power+ LM2130 short?
- N
  Nathan SandersAug 25, 2025
  The battery run time of your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower can be affected by grass conditions and cutting-height settings. To improve the running time, raise the blade height and slow your pace to reduce the cutting load.

Why does my Ego Power+ LM2130 Lawn Mower stop while mowing?
- J
  Jeffrey FowlerAug 27, 2025
  Your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower might stop mowing for several reasons. The battery pack may be depleted, so you should charge it. The mower could be in an overload condition, so raise the cutting height or slow down your mowing. The mower deck might be clogged with grass and debris, so unclog it, raise the cutting height, and/or cut a narrower swath. Also, the battery pack or mower circuitry could be too hot; allow them to cool until the temperature drops below 152°F (67°C). Finally, the side rail might be retracted; in this case, unlock the clamps, fully extend the side rails, and lock the clamps again.

Why does my Ego Power+ Lawn Mower have excessive vibration?
- L
  Lee RogersAug 31, 2025
  Excessive vibration in your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower can be attributed to several issues. The cutting blade might be loose, so tighten the outer nut. The cutting blade set could be unbalanced, so balance the blade set. A bent cutting blade can also cause vibration, so replace the blade. The mower could be set to cut too much grass at once, so raise the deck to a higher cutting-height setting. If the motor shaft is bent, contact the service center.

  Melissa WardSep 3, 2025
  If the handle-locking clamps on your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower cannot be closed, the side rails may not be fully extended. Fully extend the side rails, then lock the clamps.

Why is my Ego Power+ LM2130 Lawn Mower difficult to pull back?
- C
  Courtney MoonSep 6, 2025
  If your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower is difficult to pull back when the self-propel is turned off, the wheels are temporarily locked. Simply push ahead slightly and then move the mower as desired.

Why motor works but the blade doesn’t cut the grass on my Ego Power+ Lawn Mower?
- B
  Brenda GarzaSep 10, 2025
  If the motor of your Ego Power+ Lawn Mower works but the blade doesn’t cut grass, the blade is not tightened to the required torque. Re-tighten the blade to the recommended torque of 36-43 ft-lb (49-59Nm).
