Hi everyone
In this video, I try help you find out why your mower might be clogging up with grass every time you mow the lawn.
There is 3 possible reason why this may be happening.
1. A clogged dirty grass catcher. A dirty catcher maybe preventing airflow to pass through the catcher vents, restricting the grass to be blown to the back of the catcher, causing the grass tunnel on your mower to block up.
2. Worn blades. On mower blades you have a section of the blade called, the lift. This sits on the opposite side of the mower blade to the actual cutting section of the blade. If this is worn down flat, it will not be creating the 'lift up' effect forcing the grass through to the mower tunnel into the catcher bag.
3. Clogged mower deck. A clogged mower deck of old dry grass can restrict the volume of air that moves around underneaths the cutter, and again moving the grass at good speed through tunnel into the cutter deck.
Please, if you have anymore ideas why this may happen, put them in the comments below. Would love to hear them.
Please like this video & any other videos you see on the MOW TIME KZfaq channel.

Hopefully one of these reasons has fixed the problem for you, so you can get back out and enjoy mowing the grass/lawn.
Have a great day.

Yeah, good point, give the mesh catcher a hose. I have always had hard catcher and hadn't thought much about mesh. Thanks for mentioning it 👍🏻

Hi No worries at all. You still need to clean out the metal mesh on hard catchers to. Have a great day. 👍 😀

Thank you! I never considered the mess might be clogged. I have a Sears Platinum mower and the shute is square and narrow. When the gras is a little taller, ,and wet it cloggs in about a 10 foot stretch of mowing and is very frustrating. I blame it on the design of the underdeck. Some lawnmowers are all smooth with any shute and less problematic. Sears Craftsman Platinum is a headache.

Yes, some decks are not great. I have not used a Sears craftsman before. Give the deck a good clear out, but try to avoid letting the grass grow to tall/thick and cutting when wet. Have a great weekend. 😀

Hi Ben. Slightly off grass clogging topic. Have you ever considered a video about how you run your lawn care business / setup? Love your vids and tips, keen to see some behind the scenes tips Eg: setup, software, marketing. Great job, keep it up! Ben

Hi Ben Great name by the way…. I haven’t thought about it, but your right, there are probably people out there starting out or just want to know how other gardeners are running their business. Maybe a video on my setup and how I structure/run my business? Great question. Thanks for the input and support mate. Have a great week 👍🏻🙂

@@mowtime the greatest name 😂😂. I am one of those people looking at starting up and find it really interesting how people have their own version of success with different setups and structures etc. Just an idea mate, I definitely would watch and I reckon it could be quite popular. Thanks for the reply. Looking forward to future videos!

Love how this big, beefy bloke has a timbre to his voice, that is calming and easy to listen to. Like if you were having a sh*t day or needed some life advice, you’d go have a beverage and a chat with him, and you’d feel better. Fight with the missus? Don’t worry, go have a beer with Ben. Worried your kid might be on drugs? Ask Ben what to do. Someone somewhere is having an acute mental health crisis. Who do the cops turn to? This bloke. Gets him on the phone and puts it up to the loudspeaker. The UN is divided about peace in the Middle East, and have no clue what to do. Hola. Bonjour. They call monsieur Benjamin. Righto, that’s me done. Keep up the great content ya legend 🤙🏼

1. decks are now designed for mulching 3. change out the mulching blades for high lift can help. 2. no side discharge option to keep the deck exit speed high 3. clogged fabric catcher, HRN and HRX bad design. Aussie HRU plastic perfect. manufacturers think everyone are zombies.

100% mate. I’ve never had problems with the hru216 catchers over the years, so long as they are able to breathe. Personally have never used the HRN or X models. I’ve always run high lift on mine but I don’t mulch any lawns. Have a great weekend mate 🙂👍🏻

@Mow Time I "know" someone who has worked for honda Power Equipment for over 15yrs. They recommend to only purchase the Aussie approved sticker items. They will have better assembly and availability behind them. Have a nice weekend and keep up the good videos. 👍
