OK, here is the story.
I was mowing the lawn, I hit a stick (pine), it bent the right blade AND
the bent blade cut into the mowing deck (about 2.5 inches)
I think this was a freak accident, but??

The Sears guy is coming out to look at it Sat.
I've already pounded the metal back in place, and straighten the blade
enough to mow the rest of the property, it just needs a spot weld now
(oh and at least one blade (or some hammering). Three hours on the
new mower.. ugh
When that blade hit the mowing deck it stopped the engine cold!! (it
started fine and I've run it for about 1 hour so I think it's fine) "no
strange noises"

I have virtually the same mower and it's negotiated sticks much larger and
of hardwood.

Good luck with Sears.


It's good to get some feedback that this was probably a freak thing

Thanks
