mai asked:
I have a gas Noma Brute lawnmower, I can start it up, but how do I turn it off?
My cousin gave me an old lawnmower she had, she was able to tell me how to start it up but she doesn’t remember how to turn it off. I don’t have the manual for the lawnmower and it’s not available on the internet.

Roxanne asked:
My lawnmower’s been really hard to start lately. Like, I’ll pull and pull, and it doesnt seem to catch. It’s like “chug-achug-achug..” and no “vroooom.” I mean, it finally started after like 15 minutes of trying last week, but I just don’t wanna go through that again. Anyway to get it to start, or do I need to replace something?
Oh, forgot to mention. it is full on gas, and I have primed it. Thanks.

gg asked: We are going out of town, and my husband wants to do this so the lawnmower doesn’t get stolen out of the garage.
I dont’ have a good feeling about this. Just need some feedback.
Will our house explode?
I’m just worried that the gas fumes, after being in the house, could cause and explosion if there was a spark when the air conditioner turned on, etc.

Logic316 ~good guys wear blackā asked:
I sharpen the edges of the blade on my push mower each year, and I’ve done it 4 times so far. I’m just afraid that after several sharpenings the blade might someday get weak and perhaps break while the motor’s spinning and cause a serious accident, so how do you tell when it’s time to change the blade for a brand new one?

Beccalynn asked:
I was thinking about buying a lawnmower blenny. I set my tank up about 4 weeks ago. Does anyone know if cured live rock is enough for it to munch on for food or should i wait until the tank is better established?

Matthew asked:
I have a 30” 10HP Craftsman mower (M: 502-255040). It runs fine until I engage the blades, then it shakes and cuts out. I can engage a little bit and everything looks like it is turning fine, but at about half engaged, the shaking begins and the engine chokes out. I’m wondering could this be unbalanced blades. They are pretty old, but they were working fine yesterday and I don’t recall hitting anything except an ant hill. Any ideas?

Home Lee asked:
I bought a new battery and hooked it up backward (black cable to positive/ red to negative) to my riding lawnmower and tried to start it. It made a loud noise and now won’t attempt to start (after fixing the cables of course). Any clues on what I broke?
Fixed it. Apparently there is a dummy fuse between the battery and the rest of the important stuff to keep idiots from messing anything up if they hook it up backwards. It was just a 50 cent 20 amp fuse that blew and needed replaced.
