Ethanol varnish deposits during off-season storage cause most hard-start complaints. Cleaning restores function in most cases.

Why does my Troy-Bilt 12AV565Q711 not start after off-season storage?
Hard starting after storage is almost always caused by carburetor varnish from ethanol-blend fuel sitting in the float bowl during warm months. Drain the float bowl before off-season storage. Clean the carburetor before ordering a replacement.
Why does my Troy-Bilt 12AV565Q711 cut unevenly?
Uneven cutting is most commonly caused by a blade bent from striking a rock or debris, a blade that has become dull enough to tear rather than cut grass, or a deck that has lost proper leveling. Replace a bent blade immediately rather than attempting to straighten it.
How do I safely remove the blade on the Troy-Bilt 12AV565Q711?
Disconnect the spark plug wire before working under the deck. Tip the mower on its side with the air filter and carburetor facing up to prevent oil spillage. Block the blade from turning with a wooden block, then remove the blade bolt counterclockwise.
