What to do if my Exmark QSS708GEM42200 engine loses power?
- M
  Matthew FisherAug 12, 2025
  If your Exmark Lawn Mower engine is losing power, there are several potential causes. The engine load might be excessive, so reduce the ground speed. The air cleaner could be dirty, so clean or replace the air cleaner element. Also, the oil level in the crankcase might be low, so add oil. Check if the cooling fins and air passages for the engine are plugged and remove any obstructions. The spark plug(s) may be pitted, fouled, or have an incorrect gap, so install a new, correctly gapped spark plug(s). There could be dirt in the fuel filter, so replace it. If there is dirt, water, or stale fuel in the fuel system, contact an Authorized Service Dealer. Finally, incorrect fuel in the fuel tank can cause this issue, so drain the tank and replace the fuel with the proper type.

  If the starter does not crank on your Exmark Lawn Mower, it could be due to several reasons. The blade control switch might be engaged, so move it to Disengaged. You may not be seated, so sit on the seat. The battery may not have a full charge, so charge the battery. The electrical connections could be corroded or loose, so check them for good contact. A fuse may be blown, so replace it. If a relay or switch is damaged, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  To address abnormal vibration in your Exmark Lawn Mower, start by checking if the engine mounting bolts are loose and tighten them if necessary. Also, inspect the engine pulley, idler pulley, or blade pulley for looseness and tighten the appropriate pulley. If the engine pulley is damaged or the blade spindle is bent, contact an Authorized Service Dealer. Inspect the cutting blade(s) for being bent or unbalanced and install new cutting blade(s) if needed. Finally, check if the blade is loose, and if so, tighten the blade mounting bolt and inspect the blade spring disc washer for damage.

  If your Exmark Lawn Mower does not drive, the drive belts may be worn, loose, or broken, or the drive belts are off of the pulleys, in both cases you should contact an Authorized Service Dealer. Also, the drive may be in bypass mode, so take the machine out of bypass mode. Refer to Pushing the Machine by Hand section.

  Your Exmark Lawn Mower engine may be overheating due to several reasons. First, the engine load could be excessive, so try reducing the ground speed. Second, the oil level in the crankcase might be low, so add oil. Third, the cooling fins and air passages under the engine blower housing could be plugged; remove any obstructions. Fourth, the air cleaner may be dirty; clean or replace the air cleaner element.

Why is my Exmark QSS708GEM42200 Lawn Mower giving an uneven cutting height?
- H
  hgarciaSep 3, 2025
  An uneven cutting height on your Exmark Lawn Mower can be caused by several factors. The blade(s) might not be sharp, so sharpen them. The cutting blade(s) may be bent, so install new ones. A blade could be loose, so tighten the blade mounting bolt and inspect the blade spring disc washer for damage. The mower deck may not be level, so level it from side-to-side and front-to-rear. An anti-scalp wheel might not be set correctly, so adjust its height. The underside of the mower could be dirty, so clean it. The tire pressure in the drive tires may not be correct, so adjust it. If the blade spindle is bent, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.

  If the blades on your Exmark Lawn Mower do not rotate, it could be due to a worn, loose, or broken drive belt, so install a new one. Another cause could be that the drive belt is off the pulley, so install the drive belt and check adjusting shafts and belt guides for correct position. Finally, the mower belt may be worn, loose, or broken, so install a new mower belt.
