Hi! Robert Squires, welcome to AMHD :)


Mower three years ol;d and noticed only one wheel is self propelled.
I thought both wheels were propelled when it was new.
Am I correct or shoulod only one turnEvery walk behind I've ever owned had both wheels powered.

Troubleshooting as per Manual; Reasons Wheels will not propel.


Belt not installed properly - Check belt for proper pulley installation and movement.

Debris clogging drive operation - Clean out debris.
