Thanks, so much appreciate this!

Quick update, I managed to move the 'Tensioning Arm' if thats what is called, but its still not free, however works perfectly now the grass looks great. Think I managed to tighten the belt just enough, would love to free it up completely though?

Thanks for all that, very helpful. I think that the drive belt is too loose. And this is why I'm having the issues. I found this video , if you go to 2:18 on that video I note when I use a bar I notice that the pulley doesn't move hardly at all, nor does the 'Arm' underneath it I tried...

Thanks for that, The Belt is new about a year old. It may be slipping. How do I adjust so it isnt?

Quick update, I think under some circumstances the blades actually stop turning, maybe when the grass is slightly higher, I tried bring up the cutting deck(Higher Stting), and they spin again, when its lowered they sometimes stop. Then spin again, its almost like there isnt enough power in them...

No that makes sense, after it was serviced, it worked great, no changes have been made since then, accept for normal use, hardly used it at all last summer as we had a heatwave. Under the decks are free of Debris and even the shafts leading to the blades, blades look sharp but I dont really know...

Thanks, I was trying to upload a picture but its too large see https://we.tl/t-Ae851Bz4gI. Hopefully you can see what I mean, basically the blades aren't cutting the grass, I mean you can see that the grass isnt fully cut like it should be. Only I think about 20% cut.

Hi Good people, I have a sit on Husqvarna CTH151, had it serviced about a year ago, cant work out what's wrong, see attached picture. Basically its not cutting right, I've had it up on ramps and the blades look ok, removed some debris, took the collector off the back and tried it, seems like...

Wow Thanks a lot guys - I used a little WD40 on the starter - and a very light tap to it with hammer - Burst into life - You guys are heroes!

Hi There, I used Paint to get the filesizes down - Anyway - I'm really not sure - see attached pictures - let me know if more needed - There is something on the top of it? Not sure what it is though

Thanks a lot Hammer for the quick response, so I took the cover off - It sounds like the starter is the whine noise. It feels hot to touch also, when trying the ignition. I've taken some pictures, but I cant seem to upload them as they are too large, even though these days they are quite small -...

Hi There, any ideas here? I'm based in Europe - I have a CTH151 with Kohler engine - Maybe a different name elsewhere. I decided to give the body and part of the underside a clean, and I think I was an idiot as I also cleaned the engine area with a hosepipe. Anyways, when I turn the key I get...
