Push mower almost yanks arm off?
When we try to start it the rope pulls real hard then snaps back so hard it scarey. It's a Toro self propelled and about 5 years old. Wasn't a problem until I hosed it off after mowing. Btw it does start.
This was last season when I hosed it off. It has new plug and air filter and oil change,
so many answers...i had that problem until believe it or not i replaced the blade, perhaps it is loose or something.
my mower practically broke my arm or tore it outta it's socket a few times till i finally got to tinkering with it...
it worked a while then i replaced it
5 years is about the limit on push mowers anymore...sad but seems to be true.
