Possible Causes
Grass or rope wrapped around blade disc, Dull or bent blades causing overload, Seized blade motor bearings, Faulty blade motor driver on main board
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn the main power switch OFF and remove the key (if equipped). Wear cut-resistant gloves before touching the blade area.
- Inspect blade disc: Turn the mower over and check for grass, string, or debris wrapped around the blade disc or motor shaft. Carefully cut and remove any obstructions.
- Check blades: Examine the TerraMow cutting blades for bends, chips, or severe dullness. Replace damaged or heavily worn blades with genuine TerraMow blades.
- Spin test: With power OFF, rotate the blade disc by hand. It should turn smoothly without grinding or tight spots. If it is stiff, the blade motor bearings may be failing.
- Restart test: Return the mower upright, power ON, and start a short mowing cycle. If E08 reappears quickly with a clean deck, the motor or driver circuit may be defective.
- Advanced repair: Replacing the blade motor or main control board should be done by a qualified technician if you are not experienced with electronics.
