Buying used MTD mower DON'TS

In this video I'm trying to show you some of the pointers that I use whenever I'm
out looking for used mowers. There's a lot of design flaws that are inherent with some of these mowers and in this video I'm showing you an older MTD design which covers quite a few mowers like the Yard Man some of the Husky brands and some of the Yard Man series which now are defunct . I find that most of the fault with the mower is based on two things and that is previous owners not making the correct repairs also, and mainly, the way the desk engages the belt and blades whenever it is lowered as one smooth operation however when cutting grass the belt has a tendency to slip which is not good whenever you're needing to maintain blade speed to cut heavier grass.
