Hi there,
This is my first post in the forum so Hello!!
I have a problem with my MTD Autodrive T604 ride-on mower I wondered if anyone here can help solve the problem.
Depsite being a little old and battered it generally starts and runs well. However, there is an intermittent problem with the cutters in that sometimes the cutters just won't engage. The cutters automaticlly stop when reverse gear is selected but someitmes when I try to re-engage the cutters after I re-select the forward gear, the cutters won't engage. Ususally I try fiddling the cutter switch but that doesn't help so I just keep driving with the switch pulled out (in the "on" psoition) and after a 10 to 20 sconds the cutters suddenly engage. However, sometimes they don't and I end up having to park the machine for a little while and when I go back to it a little while later it works fine. I think it may be worse when I've been using it for a while and and the machine is hot but not sure.
Do you think I need a new cutter switch?
Hope you can help!!
Thanks!
