Self-propelling lawnmower help
Posted on 7/13/14 at 12:14 pm

It's not self-propelling.
When I press the handle it's not taking off. There is a dial that says "tighten/loosen" but no luck messing with it.
Any ideas?

Look for a YouTube video for your make/model.
You can diagnose and fix anything like that with YouTube.

Probably stripped gear

Does it make noise? Any movement at all? Is there any tension on the cable when you push it to go?

remove the cover that covers the pully and belt. Probably full of grass and dirt over time.

The shaft on mine gets wrapped with grass and whatever else, and I have to clean it once every couple of weeks or it'll have a hard time going forward

Belt is stretched.

Brand/age?
Mine(Toro) is 6 years old and had lost a lot of self-propel power over the past couple of years. I changed the belt and cleaned all underneath and it's like new now.

Are you even going to let us know what model mower it is?
