Why won't my Powersmart PSM2521PR Lawn Mower start?
- S
  Shaun ChenAug 2, 2025
  There are several reasons why your Powersmart Lawn Mower might not start. It could be due to a disengaged engine start/stop lever, so make sure to engage it. Check if the spark plug wire is disconnected and connect it if necessary. The fuel tank might be empty or contain stale fuel, so fill it with clean, fresh gasoline. You may also need to press the primer bulb to prime the engine. Inspect the spark plug; it may need cleaning, gap adjustment, or replacement. A blocked fuel line could also be the culprit, so clean it out. Lastly, the engine might be flooded; if so, wait a few minutes before attempting to restart without priming.

How to fix erratic engine running on Powersmart Lawn Mower?

  Christopher CarrAug 6, 2025
  If your Powersmart Lawn Mower engine is running erratically, several factors could be responsible. First, check the spark plug wire to ensure it is properly connected and tightened. A blocked fuel line or stale fuel can also cause this issue; clean the fuel line and fill the tank with fresh gasoline, and drain the carburetor bowl. Water or dirt in the fuel system might be the problem, so drain the fuel tank and refill it with fresh fuel. Lastly, a dirty air filter can lead to erratic engine performance, so clean or replace the filter.

  Poor idling in your Powersmart Lawn Mower can be caused by a fouled or faulty spark plug, or a gap that is too wide. Reset the gap or replace the spark plug. A dirty air cleaner can also contribute to this issue, so clean or replace the filter.

Why does my Powersmart PSM2521PR Lawn Mower leave an uneven cut?
- K
  Karen StoutAug 14, 2025
  An uneven cut with your Powersmart Lawn Mower can occur if the grass is excessively high. Mow once at a high cutting height, then mow again at the desired height, or make a narrower cutting path. Another reason could be a dull blade, so sharpen or replace it.

  Excessive vibration and noise in your Powersmart Lawn Mower can stem from a loose or unbalanced blade. Tighten and balance the blade to resolve this. Alternatively, the blade might be bent or damaged, requiring replacement.

What to do if Powersmart PSM2521PR Lawn Mower will not mulch grass?

  Michelle SalazarAug 27, 2025
  If your Powersmart Lawn Mower isn't mulching grass, it's likely because the grass is wet. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet; wait until it is dry before cutting.
