  If your Hayter Lawn Mower engine will not start, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the engine isn't under load by raising the height of cut. Next, check the fuel; if it's incorrect or contaminated, drain the tank and refill with the correct fuel. Also, verify that the spark plug lead is connected and the engine brake is released by operating the engine brake lever. Finally, inspect the spark plug for faults, cleaning, adjusting the gap, or replacing it if necessary, and check the wiring for any faults.
