  Oil leaks in your Oregon Lawn and Garden Equipment can stem from several causes. It could be due to a worn or damaged seal, requiring inspection and replacement. Alternatively, check for loose or damaged hoses or connections and repair or replace them as needed. Inspect the housing for wear or damage and replace if necessary. A leaking breather might also be the culprit; turn the breather hole and check the oil level.

Inspect for any obstructions between the rotor and frame, and clear them. Lastly, verify that the gearbox isn't damaged by checking if the output shaft rotates.

  If grass and weeds are wrapping around the rotor of your Oregon Lawn and Garden Equipment, it could be because the grass is too tall; mow it before tilling. Another reason could be that the tiller is not level; adjust the top link of the 3-point hitch.

  If your Oregon Lawn and Garden Equipment tiller isn’t cutting, it might be because the skid shoes are set too shallow; raise them one hole. Another possible reason is that the blade orientation doesn't match the tiller rotation; reverse all the blades.
