If your Exmark Lawn Mower engine won't start, starts hard, or fails to keep running, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the fuel tank is filled and the fuel shutoff valve is open. Check the oil level in the crankcase and add oil if it's low. Make sure the throttle control is midway between the 'SLOW' and 'FAST' positions. Other potential issues include a dirty fuel filter (replace it), a dirty air cleaner (clean or replace the element), or corroded, loose, or faulty electrical connections (check and clean them). For dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system or a defective relay or switch, it's best to contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

If your Exmark Lawn Mower engine is overheating, there are several potential causes. First, the engine load might be excessive, so reduce the ground speed. Check the oil level in the crankcase and add oil if it's low. A dirty air filter can also cause overheating, so clean or replace the air cleaner element. Ensure the coolant level is adequate and add coolant if necessary. Also, check for any debris on or around the radiator and remove it. If the water pump or alternator belt is worn, loose, or broken, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

Why is my Exmark Lawn Mower cutting height uneven?

Stephanie MasonAug 29, 2025
An uneven cutting height on your Exmark Lawn Mower can result from several factors. The blades might not be sharp, so sharpen them. Bent cutting blades can also cause this, so install new ones. Check if the mower deck is level and adjust it from side-to-side and front-to-rear if necessary. A dirty mower underside can also contribute, so clean it. Ensure the tire pressure in the drive tires is correct, and adjust if needed. For a bent blade spindle or uneven cutting height of adjacent blade tips, it is best to contact an Authorized Service Dealer or replace blades, spindles and (or) check for damage to mower deck.

Amanda EdwardsAug 30, 2025
Abnormal vibration in your Exmark Lawn Mower can be attributed to several issues. Bent or unbalanced cutting blades are a common cause, so install new cutting blades. Check if the blade mounting bolt is loose and tighten it. Also, inspect the engine mounting bolts and tighten them if necessary. Loose engine, idler, or blade pulleys can also cause vibration, so tighten the appropriate pulley. If the engine pulley is damaged, or the blade spindle is bent, or the belt is damaged, contact an Authorized Service Dealer or install new belt.

If the blades on your Exmark Lawn Mower aren't rotating, start by checking the drive belt tension. If the drive belt is off the pulley, check it for damage and replace if necessary, then reinstall it, ensuring the belt guide is correctly positioned. If the deck belt is worn, loose, or broken, install a new one. If the deck belt is off the pulley, install it and check the idler pulley, idler arm, and spring for correct position and function. Finally, a broken or missing idler spring can prevent blade rotation, so replace the spring.

If your Exmark Lawn Mower pulls to the left or right, with levers fully forward, it may be due to tracking needing adjustment, so adjust the tracking. Also, check the tire pressure in the drive tires and adjust as necessary. Finally, the reverse indicator and motion control linkage might need adjustment, so adjust them.

If your Exmark Lawn Mower engine is losing power, try reducing the ground speed to lessen the engine load. Clean or replace the air cleaner element if it's dirty. Ensure the oil level in the crankcase is adequate by adding oil if needed. Clear any obstructions from the engine's cooling fins and air passages to improve airflow. Check the fuel cap's vent hole and clean or replace the cap if the vent is plugged. Replace the fuel filter if it's clogged with dirt. If the problem persists, there may be dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, and you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
