    How to troubleshoot starting issues with my Gravely Lawn Mower?
    • J
      Jonathan BarnesAug 14, 2025
      If your Gravely Lawn Mower engine doesn't start, there are several potential causes. First, the safety interlock system might not be engaged or could be faulty. Also, the fuel tank could be empty, or the fuel supply might be contaminated, requiring replacement with clean fuel. The battery could be discharged, needing a charge. A loose connection between the battery and cables can also prevent starting, so ensure they are tightened and clean. Spark plug wires might be loose, or the spark plugs themselves could be faulty, requiring connection or replacement. In some cases, the electrical system or the engine itself might be faulty, in which case you should contact your Gravely dealer.

      If your Gravely Lawn Mower does not drive, one potential cause is that the transaxles are bypassed. If this is the case, engage the levers.

    Why is my Gravely 991262 Lawn Mower's cutting quality so poor?
    • C
      charles29Aug 21, 2025
      If your Gravely Lawn Mower exhibits poor cutting quality, several factors could be responsible. First, the mower blades might not be level, or the mower deck pitch could be incorrect. It's also possible that the mower blades are dull or faulty, requiring sharpening or replacement. Another factor could be mowing speed is too fast, so try driving slower when cutting grass. Also, belt tension or condition might be poor, requiring replacement of mower belts. Finally, the cutting height might be too low, so avoid setting the height of cut too low, and for very tall grass, mow twice.

      If your Gravely Lawn Mower engine runs rough, one potential cause is that the choke control knob is in the 'on' position. If this is the case, move the knob to the 'off' position. Another possibility is that the air filter cartridge is plugged, which means you should clean or replace it. In some cases, the engine itself might be faulty, requiring assistance from your Gravely dealer.
