      If Battery terminals are tight & fuse ok! 90% of time it's the guard switch out of position! Great Helpful Video! Thanks

    My hero. Thanks brother! I’m a big dummy with engines, big and small. I really appreciate your help on this. Fired right up when I took the mulch cover off and cleaned the crap out. Resecured it, snugged down the wing nuts, made sure the kill switch was engaged properly and bang. 👍

    I have this exact mower and that safety button is covered in the manual. My husband still hasn't figured it out yet. But I read the manual and I don't tell him, lol He comes in and says, "The damn thing won't start!" I'll go, really? Then I go out and start it for him after tightening that guard up against that safety button. OH it's sooooo much fun

    Dude you literally just saved my ass, my tb30 rider wouldn’t start , checked battery,fuses, pressure switch under the seat tightened up mt deck lever, nothing worked. I watched your video and sure as shit it was the pressure switch on the chute, was about the call the mobile mechanic dude to come fix it. That mower I depend on for yards with a small gates , thank you

    Hit a rock and my mower wouldn't start at all... watched this video and found that it was the sensor switch on the side discharge that came loose. That little button just had to be tightened with the mulching plastic. Thanks for the advice, you save me a couple hundred bucks!

  • @brandall119

    Not sure how much time you saved me, I should have looked at TH-cam first!
    That interlock didn't show up on my schematic and I hadn't even thought of me pulling the mulching cover off for a looky-see would have anything to do with the starter... :-)

    Fantastic! Thanks so much, this was exactly our problem. A few hour's mowing ago we hit a buried rock that had exactly the right height and slope to bend the blade up and strike the metal skirt. It hit in just the right way to cut a slit and push up so that after a new blade, and some more mowing the mulching chute thing lifted up, releasing the safety switch! Your making this little video saved us a ton of time and aggravation -- much appreciated :D

    • @JohnsonsSmallEngines

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I almost gave up and was going to call service, but thank God I found this video. As many times as I removed the mulch guard, I never encountered this problem, so it never would have occurred to me to check this. But sure enough, this was the issue!

    Hi Brad, Thank you so much for your trouble shooting ideas. Last night I charged the battery ,came inside and then watched your excellent video. After watching I knew it was the white safety push in button. I couldn't wait until morning . It was not the battery, it was that white button that was not engaged. The last cutting I did ,the grass was a bit too wet and was clogging up in the Shute. I unscrewed the bolts to remove the grass, and not knowing ,that is what happened. Thank you so much again .

    Can u pleeeze do a tutorial on the blade and engagement fully. ...I'm kinda nervous about which handle to drop first.
    Does it matter which one I move first. I just got the craftsman R110 in Nov and have driven it around my yard several times to get use to it. My son showed me how to use the blade and ut went well...but I still would like to see another explanation...

    The guard gets chewed up by those wingnuts (as I see yours has) and keeps popping off eventually. I created a 3d printable clip you can fit that eliminates that. I'll upload it somewhere and post a link.

    Yes sir, exactly my problem , but the cowling, blade cover assembly is rusted and it can not longer hold the safety switch in position...machine still runs great good and all. Looking to replace the whole bottom blade cowling part now. Thank you for the video btw.

    The home depot worked on it and said that it was working fine, (warranty work). However, once it was moved to the house the problem continued. Now I know why it won't start. Thank Q

    Could you do a video on an easy way to install the battery, I thought that was my trouble until I heard about the safety switch from someone else that owns one, but I couldn't explain it to my son so your video has been really really helpful.

    • @JohnsonsSmallEngines
      @JohnsonsSmallEngines  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I will put it on the list to make a video on how to install the battery but at the moment I do not have that machine in the shop.

    • @JohnsonsSmallEngines

    Those switches are a pain everytime you run the mulching port against a fence and the switch does that
    I put a cable tie around mine.
    Stays in permanently now
