How maintenance Troy bilt, 6.50 190cc 21" 2 in 1 push mulch mower with rear bag?

Mine works,great,take bag off and it will mulch it and look like it's being bagged up.Is your grass knee high?Do you have it low enough?Here's your manual,read the part on grass catcher and see if your doing something wrong,make sure grass door is open.Check your blade to make sure they didn't put it on upside down.The cut part should be facing out. http://pdf.lowes.com/operatingguides/043033566280_oper.pdf

Look to be 2/28/2008 but can more by compare engine serial.

Your throttle cable clamp may have come loose

should be some sort of tensioner device or spring that would need to be slacked off in order to facilitate removal try that

remove the center bolt from under the machine put a block of wood against the blade to hold it from turning on you

try putting your serial number and model number here. http://www.troybilt.ca/troybilt/troybilt_manual_search.asp

I know this is a dumb question, but is the blade on upside down? This is common mistake to make, and is the blade properly balanced and sharp. I would definitely make sure of these items first. From the way you describe it, I can't think of anything else.

Put on a new mulching Blade

You need to remove a pulley to put the new belt on.

there is a little do dad that fits in the hole that the grass is suppose to come out of called the rear mulching baffle that blocks the hole to the bag... remove it and shuld be ok
