Why is there poor grass discharge from my McCulloch Lawn Mower?
- R
  Randy JenkinsAug 8, 2025
  If your McCulloch Lawn Mower exhibits poor grass discharge, several factors could be at play. Ensure the throttle control is in the “FAST” position and you're not traveling too quickly; shift to a slower speed. Wet grass can also be a culprit, so allow the grass to dry before mowing. Other potential causes include an unleveled mower deck (level it), low or uneven tire air pressure (check the tires), a worn, bent, or loose blade (replace or sharpen the blade and tighten the bolt), buildup of grass under the mower (clean the underside), a worn mower drive belt (replace it), improperly installed blades (reinstall with the sharp edge down), using improper blades (replace with the correct ones), or clogged mower deck vent holes (clean around the mandrels).

  If the headlights on your McCulloch Lawn Mower aren't working, start by ensuring the light switch is turned “ON”. If that doesn't solve the issue, check for burned-out bulbs or lamps and replace them as needed. A faulty light switch could also be the cause, so check or replace it. Inspect the wiring for any looseness or damage, and finally, check and replace the fuse if it's blown.

Why mower blades will not rotate on my McCulloch MC16H38ST Lawn Mower?
- A
  Anthony FischerAug 16, 2025
  If the mower blades on your McCulloch Lawn Mower won't rotate, there might be an obstruction in the clutch mechanism; remove any obstruction. Alternatively, the mower drive belt could be worn or damaged, requiring replacement. A frozen idler pulley or blade mandrel could also be the cause, in which case you should replace the respective part.

How to troubleshoot loss of drive in McCulloch MC16H38ST?

  Hailey NelsonAug 26, 2025
  If you experience a loss of drive with your McCulloch Lawn Mower, first check if the freewheel control is in the “disengaged” position and place it in the “engaged” position. If that doesn't resolve the issue, the motion drive belt may be worn, damaged, or broken and will need to be replaced. Additionally, air trapped in the transmission during shipment or servicing could be the cause, requiring you to purge the transmission.

How to fix poor and uneven cut of McCulloch MC16H38ST?
- E
  Eric FrancisAug 29, 2025
  If your McCulloch Lawn Mower is leaving an uneven cut, several factors could be responsible. The blade might be worn, bent, or loose; replace the blade and tighten the bolt. The mower deck might not be level, so level it. Buildup of grass, leaves, and trash under the mower can also cause this issue, so clean the underside of the mower housing. A bent blade mandrel should be replaced. Lastly, check for clogged mower deck vent holes and clean around the mandrels to open them.

  If the engine of your McCulloch Lawn Mower continues to run when you leave the seat with the attachment clutch engaged, it indicates a faulty operator-safety presence control system. Check the wiring, switches, and connections. If the problem persists, contact an authorized service center or department for assistance.
