Craftsman 12 Amp 19" Corded Electric Rear Bag Lawn Mower - Lawn & Garden - Lawn Mowers - Corded Electric Mowers
I've seen an elderly Lexington neighbor using his E-mower for the last few years.
And now that he's moving away, it was put out on the sidewalk. (Free)!
It looked okay, but underneath, I found the blade was flopping-around loose.
The blade retaining nut was ready to drop off!
The blade had done some minor damage to the underside of the plastic housing,
and the fan impeller blades/vanes were broken off, expect for one.
Amazon reviews on the Fan, had some good info about preventing fan blade breakage.
It seems that trimming a little plastic on the fan blades(vanes?), will keep them from hitting the protruding motor bolt heads.
I torqued the blade down and did a quick grass cutting test.. It works fine!
Very quite!
I've ordered replacement parts from Ebay and should have it cutting grass by the end of next week..
The bag wasn't with the mower.
but since it's a Mulching machine, it should get a lot of use.. Saving us some gasoline!
