How are you guys mowing around it?

We simply pick it up and move it. I lift one side, and either my 2 daughters (age 8 & 11) or my teenage son lifts the other side.

I pull it all over my lawn with heavy bags of compost and potting soil on it. It works great!

It is very hard to do. It has a hard time cutting through any grass. Is there a way to keep it on while using it? I know there is a safety feature with it, but it is hard to hold both buttons down to keep it running at the same time.

I just walk the line where I buried it. Will usually find the place where a weed eater dug it up or some other cause. So far it has been easy. They do make a tool for that, if you can't find the break. So far I've had no trouble.

I am on my second unit now, but only due to moving. I used the original mower in Texas for two seasons, and it didn't make much sense to pack it in our small U-Haul. I liked it so much I bought another one, but only have one mow on it so far. It's really a great little mower, and I was REALLY tired of maintaining so many internal combustion engines around the house.

Pat, There's no real trick just be sure that small turned up slots are on the top of the blade and everything else will fall into place. If you have a deflector to cover the grass discharge it will greatly improve the performance of the cut & mulch.

A common lawn and garden sprayer with an adjustable nozzle will do. Alternatively you could use a paint roller (3/4" nap).

We absolutely love the mower- it's the best we ever had. As for mulching, I cannot comment on that as we bag everything it picks up and put it in a mulch pile in the corner of our yard, so never really used it as a mulching mower. As a bagging mower it works fine, vacuuming up even small stuff.

Hi EricG, I tend to keep in in mulch mode...it collects pretty well, though not so good with damp grass. Never tried the side action, as prefer to collect the cuttings. Cuts better than the original, however, IMO.

I've let my lawn get to about 6 inches and it struggles a bit. I mulch not bag but you really can't let it get long. The mower isn't as powerful as a gas one. It's best for a small to mid size lawn that is mowed very regularly.

Herb: Love the mower but compared to my previous 17 inch one, this one is a monster (size) and the way it is built, is awkward to both store in my garage, and awkward to use in confined spaces where you have to make tight turns.Can't imagine even how I could lift it to hang it on the wall.

You have to rake it up, if you don't want too, you can buy the lawn sweeper and get the de-thatcher attachment for it

greg, i would be more concerned with if it cuts the grass well !! i got rid of mine by putting it on the street, the night before bulk pickup....i am sorry, but i thought it was garbage ! that is all i can say.

Not well at all. Dry grass is optimal. Tall standing weeds it has a problem cutting

Shouldn't be a problem. I am pretty sure ours have come off on their own from time to time moving it to mow the grass.

It is finely mulched, however, I still use the bagger. Our lawn grows rather quickly.

Sorry, I have had a great deal of trouble with this too, although I love my little mower!! I DID manage to get it on once, at the very beginning, so I know it can be done, but I have given up because it's so frustrating....I'm going to ask my oldest son who is very clever with machines....and will post if he gets a surefire way to do it....It is a wonderful mower and perfect for my tiny vegetable garden which has grass paths, but I do wish the catcher would work!!
