  If your Texas A/S Lawn Mower won't start when you pull the cord, several factors could be at play. Here's what to check: * Ensure the engine brake handle is activated. * Verify the wires are correctly connected to the battery. * Adjust the engine brake cable, following the manual's instructions. * Move the mower away from high grass, or tip the machine when starting, setting the height adjustment in the highest position. * Prime the engine by pushing the primer 1-3 times before starting. * Adjust the choke lever to a different position. * Ensure there's gasoline in the fuel tank. * If the gasoline is old (more than 3 months), replace it with fresh gasoline.

  If the start cable on your Texas A/S Lawn Mower is very tight, preventing it from starting, there are a couple of things you can check. First, make sure that you are activating the brake handle when you pull the start cord. Also, the machine might be placed in high grass. Move it to a clear area and repeat the start procedure. Setting the height adjustment to the highest position can also help by lifting the blade free of the grass.

Why are the back wheels not pulling on my Texas A/S Lawn Mower?
- H
  Heather BlackAug 29, 2025
  If the back wheels of your Texas A/S Lawn Mower aren't pulling, or are pulling very little, it could be due to a clutch cable that is either too tight or too loose. Adjust the clutch cable following the instructions in the manual. Another possibility is that the ratchets in the rear wheels are worn, in which case you would need to replace them.
