Can I thread hijack a little bit? I bought this same mower last year and one thing that really irks me that I’m wondering if any others have this problem. When I cut my grass against the grain, the mower will basically not cut any grass on the last 2-4 inches on the right side. The grass can be super short and it will still miss it/not cut it

Thank you, everybody. Blades do seem dull and have a few spots where they’ve taken a beating from roots and random kids toys left in the lawn ????? Seems like buying a new set is the best option.

Mine has been doing this recently as well. I was contributing that to my blade issue

Pretty sure there’s no ‘against the grain’. I cut my grass in the 4 different directions and I don’t notice any difference. But I’d guess you have a dull or broken blade?

OP, most people will recommend ‘sharpening’ the blades 2-3 times a year for best performance. I rarely do more than once a year. Sharpening is very easy and mower blades aren’t ‘sharp’ they are are like a butter knife.
