Q: It says high wheel how come it does not have 11 inch wheels on back that is what my old one has and that’s what I want

  • AI-generated, Human-approved
    A: This mower does feature 11-inch high rear wheels, which are designed to provide improved traction and maneuverability over rough or uneven terrain. While the product specifications list the rear wheel size as 8 inches, the manufacturer's description confirms they are 11 inches high.

Q: I just purchased this mower online, Does it come filled with oil? Where all i need to do is fill with some good fuel and fire her up?

a month ago
1 Answer
  • A: Hi COECOE. The mower will come with a sample amount of oil. Be sure to read your engine's operator manual and fill to capacity with the recommended type. Fill up with fresh, new fuel. We recommend fuel with less than 10% ethanol content or less, or you can use an ethanol free fuel such as TruFuel. The addition of a fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL is also recommended if using fuel with ethanol. You can find set-up and start-up procedures within the mower's operator manual here: https://apps.mtdproducts.com/manuals/769-25834a.pdf. Thank you for your question.

Q: purchased troy bilt tb230 fwd gas walk mower two days ago, on the first use grass isnt going into the bag, shutting all over, the bag is filling up half full, ????

4 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Howdy neighbor! Since you just unboxed your brand-new Troy-Bilt mower, the most common culprit for this issue is a pre-installed plastic mulch plug that is physically blocking the tunnel into the grass catcher, which can be resolved by turning off the engine, disconnecting the spark plug wire, and removing that plug from the rear chute. For your absolute safety, always make sure the engine is completely shut off and all moving parts have come to a total stop before checking for blockages or making any adjustments to the cutting deck. Additionally, ensuring your lawn is fully dry and raising your cutting height will maximize the blade's natural airflow to easily push those clippings all the way to the back of the bag!

Q: The wire is too long it's rubbing the tire. I have to slightly pick up on the handle in order for it to have good power. How can I fix this?

11 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: The issues you describe—a wire rubbing the tire and losing power until you lift the handle—point to a problem with your mower's self-propel drive cable. The fix involves properly routing and adjusting the cable, not bending it or tying it with zip ties.

Cheap plastic parts that fail almost immediately

a month ago
Engine shroud fell off during first use, on the third use the inside debris covers on the front wheels wore through and the drive gears clogged. Now, the seventh time using this machine, the front drive cover has broken at the bolt tabs. This is also what is used to set the front deck height. My suggestion is buy a much older unit and have it rebuilt, nearly the same or less money, and certainly less frustration and disappointment.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Expected Better

After reading a number of reviews for this mower I decided to purchase one. I should have paid more attention to the ones that mentioned all of the plastic parts that are now in use on this mower. They are not of the highest quality. I used this mower once and I was not impressed. This is suppose to be a self propelled mower but I ended up doing mower pushing than it did propelling in very short grass. I decided to return it. The return process went well. This Troy Bilt is not like the one had about a decade ago, which was a workhorse.
