    Why is my Frontier GM1060E cutting unevenly?
    • B
      Barbara LaneAug 14, 2025
      If your Frontier Lawn Mower is cutting unevenly, several factors could be the cause. Make sure the cup washer is correctly positioned between the blade and bolt at all three spindles. If the ground speed is too fast, shift to a lower gear. The blades may also need sharpening, or the caster wheels might be uneven, requiring adjustment.

      Hannah LeeAug 17, 2025
      If you notice grass building up at the exit of your Frontier Lawn Mower, it could be due to several reasons. The grass might be too wet, in which case you should allow it to dry before mowing. If the grass is too high, raise the mower, shift to a lower gear, and make two passes over the grass, mowing high on the first pass and cutting to the desired height on the second. Additionally, ensure that the tractor RPM is not too slow by increasing it and checking the engine and PTO speeds.

    What to do if Frontier Lawn Mower causes streaking conditions in swath?

      Patrick JohnsonAug 25, 2025
      If you're experiencing streaking conditions in the swath while using your Frontier Lawn Mower, it might be too wet to mow, so allow the grass to dry. It could also be that the blades cannot cut grass pressed down by the wheels, so maintain engine speed and shift to a lower gear. Dull blades can also cause this issue, so sharpen the blade. Finally, the blades may be worn down, preventing overlap, in which case you should change the blades.

      If you're experiencing belt slippage with your Frontier Lawn Mower, it could be due to a lack of tension, so try tightening the belt. Another cause could be an object clogging the mower, which you should remove. Also, check for debris in the pulleys and clean them if necessary.

    Why does my Frontier Lawn Mower leave cut grass windrows?
    • J
      Joanne RobertsonSep 6, 2025
      If your Frontier Lawn Mower is leaving cut grass windrows, it could be because the ground speed is too low, so increase it. Alternatively, the tractor RPM might be too slow, so increase the tractor RPM and check the engine and PTO speeds.
