My son jumped on the mower to move it out of the shed and the right control arm came off in his hand. Looks like the aluminum connector broke and the part ot bolt onto is broken too. The left side is cracked and proably needs to be replaced too. Looked up the part number that is on the broken part, and it is avalable from Amazon, along with the piece it bolts toas a set. I ordered a set for each side. Temps have headed into the 30's and colder so not sure when I will get it repaired, but at least I don't have to use it util spring(??) How does this get broken? I did get this from an auction used and I would guess th previous owner got a little rough with it?? Still love the machine even after the 2nd year of using it!!

There's your dinner.

Most people don't get rid of good running mowers. Like cars and trucks, they dump the broken down used up stuff.

Hope the seller mentioned it had a lot of wear on it.

Yeah, they said it didn't run, I got it working enough to start it and move it around before I bid on it. we did have to replace belts and some bearings, and we got it cheap enough so I can't complain too much. Just thought these were a strange thing to break. They look like a pain to get to but we'll figure it out, maybe in the spring (??)
