Honda Buffalo Buck HRU19M1 Questions & Answers

No, it's not self propelled.

Hi Chindoly - I checked my lawn mower over the weekend and mine doesn't seem to be having this issue. I bought my Honda at an authorised Honda retailer and had my extra 2 blades installed by them at the time of purchase, so if I was experiencing this problem I would go back to them to rectify. I hope this helps.

The blades are purposely designed to swing back when they strike a hard object. They do this to save your blades and crankshaft. The blade swings straight when engine is engaged due to constant gravity

Jeremy.jeraki, don't you mean "centrifugal force" causes the blades to straighten when the engine is running?

It should only have 2 blades. You can apparently get 2 additional blades installed, but I don't think you need them.

4 work allot better. I had two and went to 4.

You need 4, and an increase in engine speed to reap the benefits. It transforms this mower!!
