    Greenworks EV Mowers

    I am going on my 4th year with Greenworks products. I bought their 21" self propelled 60v mower, with 2 - 4AH batteries & dual charger, first. I cut about 1/2 acre of grass every week. It takes 3 full charged batteries to cut all this. The batteries recharge in an hour, so that is when I take a...

    Greenworks Pro 60V LMC408

    Yes, St. Augustine is tough to cut, & does not to be cut too short. The motor probably overheated & caused it to shut down. That mower is very capable of cutting her grass .

    Battery powered Weed Eater, Which voltage is preferred or has an advantage?

    I have a Greenworks 60V system . It is overkill for my needs as far as the string trimmer, but it uses the same batteries as my mower. Very pleased with everything .

    2009 Cub Cadet LTX 1040's Brake Pedal is Sticking with the Drive Pedal.

    Clippings can gather under the mower in that area. Use a blower to remove those, then a little oil on the linkages.

    New Owner

    If you are going to use the vacuum often, cut the grass more often & don't let it get too high, or cut too much off at a time. Never cut when wet. Run RPMS at full speed & drive a little slower. Clean inside of the chute & tube after each use. KEEP oil checked. Many of these have a Chinese built...

    40v 3.0AH battery problems

    How old is the battery ? Do you have a good battery to test the tool ? A battery can show the correct voltage, but once it is " under a load ", it may fail.

    How to keep 40V mower clean?

    NEVER cut wet grass , if you value this mower. You have an electric mower so water & electricity [ even a battery ] do not mix. You can burn up the motor. If you cut high grass, set the wheels to the top setting, & cut it again a couple of days later at a notch lower. Now that you have caked...

    Husqvarna CTH151 Sit On Not Cutting Right

    AHA. If the spring is unhooked & the belt is off, that arm should swing freely back & forth. Those are the only things keeping the belt tight. You may be able to leave everything as it is now, & squirt some penetrating oil on the area where the arm pivots, & keep cutting the grass with it. It...

    Husqvarna CTH151 Sit On Not Cutting Right

    Here is a diagram with parts. I am not familiar with your mower, but it looks like most others. The belt tension is provided by an idler pully with a spring that pulls it tight, so no adjustment. A new FACTORY belt should last longer than a year, unless other parts such as Idlers, pulleys , etc...

    Is electric the way to go now?

    I am on my 3rd year with a Greenworks 60V mower. I LOVE IT ! I love it so much that I also bought a string trimmer, blower, hedge trimmer , & chainsaw, that all use the same battery. The mower is self propelled, has a steel deck, ball bearing wheels, & dual battery .I use it to cut a 1/2 acre...

    CC 500 starter cord jerks back; won't start any more

    I agree to re-check the flywheel key by REMOVING the flywheel. They can be partially sheared & you can't see that without removing the flywheel.

    Cracked spindle housing, advice?

    Those reinforcement plates that Brad mentioned sounds like a good idea, too.

    Cracked spindle housing, advice?

    If you do a thorough search online by the part number, you can find the assembly a little cheaper than almost $200. I had rather replace the entire spindle to make sure it is done right & all parts match & there is no wear. Clean everything & LOOK closely at the other spindle as well . Vibration...

    Greenworks 80v Self-Propel Problems

    I also suggest contacting Greenworks at then link above. I would also ask for a copy of the owner's manual to download, if you don't have one. . Damage can be done to the self propelled feature, if not operated correctly. Just before you stop cutting, let off the SP lever a few feet before...

    Recommendation for cordless self propelled 21” mower

    My Greenworks speeds up to when hitting higher grass. You can extend cutting time by not using the self-propelled feature all the time. If you have downhill slopes, short runs on level ground , turning around , etc. , don't use that feature. Stopping for a short water/bathroom/cooling...

    Recommendation for cordless self propelled 21” mower

    Congratulations on your new purchase . You can always cut part of your yard, take a break, recharge the batteries, then finish. That will let YOUR battery recharge at the same time.

    Battery problem for Ryobi lawn mower

    Here are some on E Bay for sale. I would think that for $65, it would be well worth it ! You can usually find some on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace, too. I have a different battery mower, but I bought a couple of other tools that use the same battery as my mower, at big savings on...

    Cutting grass every 5 days now !

    It is monsoon season in Florida & I have to cut grass every 5 days to keep up with it. I am still using my Greenworks 60v self propelled mower & am very pleased with it. Once the grass dries a little more, I will go out & cut the front yard. I usually cut the front one day & the back the next...

    New mower, engine seized almost immediately

    I looked at a mower some years ago , that had a blown Tecumseh engine. It had maybe 2 hours on it when it blew a hole in the block. It only had ONE connecting rod nut holding the rod to the crank !! I found no evidence that it ever had both nuts on it.

    Recommendation for cordless self propelled 21” mower

    I love my Greenworks 21" self propelled 60V. BUT, I discharge the grass out of the side & have never tried to bag it. I have the mower, string trimmer, blower, hedge trimmer, chainsaw, & power convertor, so you see how much I like their products. Are you sure you only have 7000 sq. ft...

    Cub Cadet XT1 feels tippy on uneven ground

    I used to have a yard with a few sloped areas that were similar. I also had to sit on the upper edge of the seat & lean. My wife could mow it without much trouble, because she was much smaller than me.

    I am fed up with my Stihl Blower

    All tools are 60volts. I bought a self propelled 21" mower, string trimmer , blower, chainsaw, hedge trimmer, & an auxiliary power source. [ turns 60v to 300w of power. I am VERY pleased with everything & the cost was no more than gas powered. .

    62V Green Machine, new OPE line exclusive at Home Depot ...

    It does look a lot like a Greenworks 60v mower. Maybe they rated it 62v just to beat Greenworks 60v. Only time will tell how good it is. I LOVE my Greenworks 60v.
