Possible Causes

Grass and dirt packed in caster fork, Rusted caster bearing, Bent caster axle, Lack of lubrication

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn OFF the mower before lifting the front end.

  • Inspect caster: Lift the front of the TerraMow and spin the caster wheel. It should rotate and swivel freely.
  • Clean debris: Remove grass, twine, or dirt from around the caster fork and axle.
  • Lubricate: Apply a light, outdoor-safe lubricant to the caster axle and swivel joint if allowed by TerraMow guidelines.
  • Replace if seized: If the caster remains stiff or wobbly, replace the TerraMow front caster wheel assembly.
