    My hero. Thanks brother! I’m a big dummy with engines, big and small. I really appreciate your help on this. Fired right up when I took the mulch cover off and cleaned the crap out. Resecured it, snugged down the wing nuts, made sure the kill switch was engaged properly and bang. 👍

    I have this exact mower and that safety button is covered in the manual. My husband still hasn't figured it out yet. But I read the manual and I don't tell him, lol He comes in and says, "The damn thing won't start!" I'll go, really? Then I go out and start it for him after tightening that guard up against that safety button. OH it's sooooo much fun

I watched your video and sure as shit it was the pressure switch on the chute, was about the call the mobile mechanic dude to come fix it. That mower I depend on for yards with a small gates , thank you

    Fantastic! Thanks so much, this was exactly our problem. A few hour's mowing ago we hit a buried rock that had exactly the right height and slope to bend the blade up and strike the metal skirt. It hit in just the right way to cut a slit and push up so that after a new blade, and some more mowing the mulching chute thing lifted up, releasing the safety switch! Your making this little video saved us a ton of time and aggravation -- much appreciated :D

    Hit a rock and my mower wouldn't start at all... watched this video and found that it was the sensor switch on the side discharge that came loose. That little button just had to be tightened with the mulching plastic. Thanks for the advice, you save me a couple hundred bucks!

    Hi Brad, Thank you so much for your trouble shooting ideas. Last night I charged the battery ,came inside and then watched your excellent video. After watching I knew it was the white safety push in button. I couldn't wait until morning . It was not the battery, it was that white button that was not engaged. The last cutting I did ,the grass was a bit too wet and was clogging up in the Shute. I unscrewed the bolts to remove the grass, and not knowing ,that is what happened. Thank you so much again .

    Can u pleeeze do a tutorial on the blade and engagement fully. ...I'm kinda nervous about which handle to drop first.
    Does it matter which one I move first. I just got the craftsman R110 in Nov and have driven it around my yard several times to get use to it. My son showed me how to use the blade and ut went well...but I still would like to see another explanation...

    The guard gets chewed up by those wingnuts (as I see yours has) and keeps popping off eventually. I created a 3d printable clip you can fit that eliminates that. I'll upload it somewhere and post a link.

    I have one of these and the parking brake no longer engages. Can you do a vid? It does brake, just when I go to put it in park, it won't engage. Thanks. Love your vids.

      I’ll need to have one come into the shop to be able to look at the brakes but I will put it on the list to do.

    Would you be able to do a video on the same type of machine , the proper governor control spring operation? My machine revs up fully but won’t return to low throttle even when I turn the throttle lever back. When I got the machine there was a governor control spring off. Love your videos,keep up the excellent work. Andy
