How to troubleshoot a Gravely Pro-Turn Z 48 when the engine does not start?
- CCrystal PetersSep 7, 2025
If your Gravely Lawn Mower engine doesn't start, several factors could be the cause. First, make sure the Safety Interlock System is properly engaged and not faulty. If the fuel tank is empty, refill it. Contaminated fuel can also prevent starting, so replace it with clean fuel. A discharged battery will also prevent the engine from starting, so charge the battery. Also, check the connection between the battery and cables, and tighten or clean them if necessary. Loose spark plug wires or faulty spark plugs can also be the problem; connect the wires or replace the spark plugs. If these steps don't resolve the issue, there may be a fault in the electrical system or the engine itself, in which case you should contact your Gravely dealer.
