HRB 215 K4 HXA MZBA 6416428. Blade slows then stops in moderately thick grass. After a few minutes of rest the blade works then the process repeats itself. The control cable is tight. Other posts on this forum suggest the Roto stop needs repair. What do I look for on the driven disk to indicate it needs to be replaced? Is there any chance it is simply glazed and I can sand off the glaze? Finally, any tips to make the removal of the Roto stop easier? The U- tube videos I have watched make it look pretty simple.

Used the rope technique found elsewhere on the forum. Removed the Roto Stop, inspected everything. All the parts appeared serviceable. I did find a layer of grease on the bottom pressure plate. I cleaned everything carefully, reassembled, and it works!
