  If your Snapper Lawn Mower is cutting grass improperly, several factors could be responsible. Uneven tire pressure can cause an uneven cut, so ensure proper pressure. The cutting height might be set too low or too high, so adjust it accordingly. If the engine speed is too slow, move the engine speed control to the “FAST” position. Also, if the forward speed is too fast, reduce it by moving the joystick to a slower speed. Adjust the side to side level if you observe a terraced cut. For excessive deck pitch, adjust the front to rear pitch. Dull or damaged cutting blades should be sharpened or replaced. Slipping blade belt or clutch belt should be replaced. For electric clutch, adjust it to proper specifications (33” Deck Only).
