My husband and I bought this mower in 2015. I think it mowed 1 acre once and one of the blades stopped working. Raven sent new deck. Same problem. Took to a certified service dealer who told us the last one of these he had seen was was a guy who pulled into his parking lot, dragged it off a trailer and said” You can keep this piece of junk”. I know how he felt. The mechanic told us he fixed the one deck motor and while test driving the other motor went out. He finally got both motors working. We got it home, drove 20 feet and they quit again. ANYONE know what’s wrong? Generator works great Runs fine. We have rough ground, so the 20 & 30 amp fuses come loose once in a while. Smokes like the devil when starting and guzzles oil. My husband knows what’s wrong with oil problem. But we can not figure what is wrong with mower deck. Is there a way to convert it to a pulley type deck ? Just asking bc I’m desperate. I’m 65, good shape, but push mowing 1 1/2 acres of bumpy land is getting tiresome. You know what we spent on this and doesn’t seem right to have to spend that much more again, when all I need is for the deck to spin the blades. Guess I could hook a couple hamsters up in their wheels & see if that would work, but really, dies anyone have an answer to my problem, other than buying another mower?
