This doesn't have the automatic drive? I am not explaining it well. You know those levers that you press and it automatically goes.

Dam, I just installed mine. It does not start but the battery has charge. I tried resetting the battery twice and still does NOT work. :(
By the way nice video. The pull up bar is slightly not so tight or snuck. Not sure if that is the problem or not.

A note on the battery from Amazon feedback. There is no battery management to the battery. This means that you should only leave it in the charger until the charge is complete and NO LONGER! If you charge it and forget it the battery life will diminish over time and give you less cutting time. I'm told an empty battery will take 2 hours to fully charge. If your battery has a partial charge then deduct that amount remaining from the 2 hours (if half the lights are on when you check the battery level then charge it for 1 hour, etc.). Not overcharging the battery should keep it healthy for a long time. They cost about $130 to replace so baby that thing!

I've had mine for 5 years, it is a purchase I will never regret!

thanks for posting this video, helped save me time. The handle clamp screws and base clamp are kind of wonky getting them at the right tightness before clamping into place. But other then that it works great. I have a medium to large size lawn, but lots of trees and I don't treat the grass, so there are lots of dead spots, or grass that doesn't grow too high..so this mower works fine for about 90% of my lawn. If I let it grow high in areas, then I will use my gas mower (but the battery powered one is so much easy to start and operate being light way and it moves easy, even better then my self propelled gas mower). I would have purchased a stronger voltage and brand ...mower but they were way more expensive and I wanted to see how this one worked before considering.

You didn't really show us how to put it together very well or detailed.. you should have showed us how exactly how to put the parts on (ie how to put the battery in like which end in 1st)

Bro love the video, just curious and wanted to ask if its still good? let me know!

[JS-mtwp]

How big is your lawn and was a single charge enough for you?

[HimsinBoston]

Is it good for .4 acre lot healthy planted lawn?

[myfirstnamemylastname]

that is some thin grass...mowing a REAL 4-5 inch lawn would be a whole other thing.
