There are three things I found out through trial and error that are the easiest to fix as a push mower owner: 1) The drive cable has broken; 2) the drive belt is worn out or broken; 3) The wheels which are attached to the gear box are stripped out. I found out in my situation the latter was the problem after replacing the drive cable and drive belt. I kept tightening the cable and checking the tension of the belt. But if you look inside the tires attached to the gear box, you will see it is cut like a gear wheel. When these wear down, all the drive does is tear out all the plastic over time so the tire can only be pushed - not kick in and pull.
Could this be the problem with my mower not having any power. The rear wheels move when in the air but on the grass I have to push it. Or is it the cable that connects to the handle? If it’s that, do you have a video on replacing that?
Silent movies strike again 😨😨😨😨😨

Yes, Bob! Same situation here... chunk of mulch devoured the plastic portion of the pulley
What size is the belt???

Probably the drive belt too loose, would be my guess.
What size is the belt
No volume?
Useless
