Why won't my Gravely Lawn Mower engine start?
- A
  Amy ContrerasAug 22, 2025
  Your Gravely Lawn Mower engine might not start due to several reasons. The PTO switch may be in the on position, so push it down to the off position. Ensure the parking brake is engaged. Check if the fuel tank is empty and fill it if needed. Contaminated fuel can also prevent starting, so replace it with clean fuel. A discharged battery needs charging. Clean and tighten any loose or corroded battery cables. Also, make sure the safety interlock system is properly engaged and not faulty.

Why does my Gravely Lawn Mower have poor cutting quality?
- Z
  Zachary EllisAug 30, 2025
  Poor cutting quality in your Gravely Lawn Mower can stem from several issues. The mower blades might not be level, or the mower deck pitch could be incorrect; level and adjust these. Dull or faulty mower blades should be sharpened or replaced. If you're mowing too fast, try driving slower. Avoid setting the cutting height too low, and for very tall grass, consider mowing twice.
