Tall grass will do that with pretty much any mower. If I run into that, I just mow over that section three or four times in different directions to get it cut down sufficiently.

Since it seems that you done most of the mechanical changes, maybe it has to do with the deck shell itself. If the deck has large dents, or is caked with mud/debris underneath, the air flow may be affected enough to affect the air flow from the blades.

Darwin’s having trouble keeping up though……too many potential customers……

I’ve almost done that a few times with the same tree at my own house…….wakes you up pretty darn quick

I did this maybe six or so years ago. The woods had slowly encroached into the yard over the years. Lots of 3”-4” size trees. I cut them and their stumps as close to the ground as possible, then dumped dirt over the whole area. Worked great. Nothing grew out of the stumps. I mow over...

Nothing screams “professional” like a diy truck bed mod….

We weren’t allowed to even bring anything resembling food into the living room when I was growing up. Nowadays, the living room is the defacto dining room.

Don’t know the answer, but on my MF1540 the 4wd mechanism at the front axle has a zerk in it that I keep greased, so maybe just make sure that yours is greased if you have a zerk. They can be hard to spot; sometimes have to feel around for them.

Did the same - foam filled all four tires years ago. Was worth the cost, in my opinion.
