Why does the blade turn off while backing up on my CubCadet zero turn lawn mower?

    Wow I was answering a question in another form and it posted here... too many windows open... your issue isn't an issue it's a safety feature as most accidents happen when in reverse.

Your missing the clip that holds the nut... there is a keyway under the blade housing that will strip if there is an issue... don't want that girl flying off during mowing. There may be a small cotter pin that goes through the bolt or a cup edge that protects the bolt from coming loose when it contacts grass.

It's a reverse caution switch so you don't back over someone with the blades running. You can google what it does and where it is.
best to you

SOURCE: toro mower dies when i try to pull out

Disassemble carburetor and spray with carb. cleaner. Use a Den Tek Brush,
(http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=165357&catid=1152), to clean the small portals in carb. Make sure that the small screen is free of debris. Reassemble and start.
If this doesn't work, then you will need to buy a carb. kit and replace all the appropriate parts.

SOURCE: Craftsman zero turn - blades won't engage

The PTO switch contacts to operate the clutch that starts the blades is defective. I have replaced mine and the new one just failed again. Sears must know this is a defect problem but so far they are quiet about the problem

I hit a metal pipe with my cub cadet zero turn lawn mower today. Now it smokes under the deck when I engage the blades and it is not cutting the grass. Have I ruined my mower?

You'll need to look under the deck w/ the mower not running and see why the blades aren't turning. Most likely something is bent (maybe blade) and hitting something. The smoke is probably from the belt slipping and getting hot.

I have a cub cedet commercial tank 60 zero turn lawn mower, and i need to change lawn mower blades. Which way should i turn the nut to take the blades off.

As viewed from the bottom, if the blade turns clockwise, then the bolt should have a left-hand thread. A possible exception would be if the blade cannot slip relative to the shaft. This could be the case if the blade (not the washer) has a D shaped hole in it.
Good luck, Al K
