Hello All,
I have a Troy Bilt hi wheel walk behind mower I bought two years ago. I love the Honda engine and the larger rear wheel for my rough ground. I don't like the poor lift of the blade. I replaced the blade last year hoping to get more lift from the mower. The old Murray rotary mower I had been using would pull up and cut/mulch fallen twigs, leaves, lift and cut dandelions all quite nicely. The Troy Bilt… not do much. I've tried in mulching mode and with the bag on (hoping to move more air and maybe get better lift). I still pull the old Murray out in fall for the maple leafs.
Anyone else have this experience or find a way to get better lift?
Thanks
