Mowed about 7 rows in back yard on hill. Coming up hill I lost all power. Shut blades off and crawled to top of hill (where it was safe). Hopped off to check hydraulic level (I had checked before mowing and it was fine) and low and behold the site glass was missing.
Took my son an hour+ but we found it in the back yard along with trails of hydro fluid all over the grass :-(
Still under warranty - do you guys think operating it like this I've damaged anything? Anyone else lost the sight glass before? Found the part and its just cheap plastic. Little worried about it happening again long term.
For now leaving it parked and will tow to dealer tomorrow....
Photos of missing sight glass and my wonderful hydro trails in the grass (didn't notice as it rained last night and grass was slightly wet).....
