I bought an old 108 and the battery isn't charging so I charge it up once in a while. No problem until I noticed it can't cut thick grass. The PTO clutch keeps slipping and I have to turn off the PTO, get out the thick grass, turn the PTO back on and go over it again. It takes about 5 times to cut the heavy grass.
So is it not charging because the PTO clutch has too big of a gap (about .125 now) and it's using too power to keep the PTO engaged? That's what some guy said. Are these two problems related?
