[My hobby]

Bought Gizmow mower late in season only mowed a few larger yards but had trouble with the steering the bushings on the steering shaft worked there way up and locked up the steering. Would like to get reviews from other owners.
Thanks Kevin

Did you buy it new from Lanny's? Maybe contact them either way and see if they can straighten it out for you. Not many guys use these mowers so the info might be limited.

Yes I bought from Lannys but just trying to get reviews from users not sellers. Don't have a lot of use for Lannys repair buisness.

Thanks

They won't warranty the issue?

Did you follow the recommended maintenance specifications?

Reason I ask, I wonder if there isn't a zerk up in there someplace...

The mower has been serviced to Gizmows service manual the bushing had no retainer so I made a retainer to hold it down. Haven't mowed with it yet to see if it is the fix but mowing season is almost upon us.

I've had a Gizmow for several years now (27/61) and have only had one issue. One of the steering chains popped off after I hit an unseen and pretty deep hole at nearly full speed. It was a pretty easy fix.

I did change it over to turf tires though - the ag tires it came with are great for traction, but they will also tear the turf if you're not paying attention. The turf tires are a little easier on the grass.



Otherwise it's still running well, mowing great, and chugging right along.

Thanks for the information put about 50 hrs on mine and seems to be okay. Can't seem to find any bad reviews on it so the must be okay.

Are they still in buisness?

Yes. Talked to them last fall when I bought a stripping roller.
