Hi,
Have a Snapper RER M Series, and while mowing today, blade stopped jumped out of lock and I brought it in to look at it.

I did not hit anything that I know of but bought the Mower used, so no History knowledge.

Set the Mower up and grabbed the blade and it is VERY hard to turn takes both hands?

Check distance on blade bar from end to edge of Mower Deck, all good and no play but darn stiff to rotate Blade bar is straight.

Thinking seized bearing?

Do these spindle shafts move easily when in good condition?

Hi,
Well, I found the problem.
It was the pulley brake so all good and finished the Lawn.
Also found a tag with the Mower model and ser.#!
