craftsman rotary lawn mower
6.5 horsepower
22" discharge
model 917.379470

I mowed my yard 3 times so far with this mower no problems, the 3rd time the self propel won't work and the mower is hard to push. It is much too hard for a widow woman, I can't take it back as it has been over a year, I didn't need to mow muc within that time. I don't want to have to haul it somewhere for repair. Thank you so very much.

The self-propel thing probably overheated and melted the belt and plastic cover just like ours did. We have the same model and the self-propel part stopped working after just a few times. I'm not sure where to get the parts from, but to fix our lawn mower, we'll need a new plastic part (the one that says Self-Propelled on it) and probably a new belt for the inside. Very annoying.
