Hi all,
I have a BX2360 with a 60" MMM purchased last fall. Since new, at 2400 RPM or above, I get a high pitched noise from the mower. It's not a squeal like metal on metal or a dry bearing. It's more of a whirr, like a blade tip noise. The higher the RPMs, the higher pitched and louder it is. My BIL has said he can hear it from his house 150 yards away. I have checked the obvious things - the gearbox is full, the bearings have been pumped full, and I switched around the blades. Nothing wobbles. With the mower off, there is no noise from the mid PTO.
Has anyone else run across anything like this or have any thoughts?
Thanks
