ProMow Backlap Sharpening Kit For Reel Mowers

I've used my mower about two and a half months and have not had good results. Have to mow the same area three times to get it to be even. I noticed while cutting last time the two front reels stop spinning momentarily then start up again. That would account for all the uneven areas. I've also had an inner wheel fall off. When looking at the pinion gears that drive the reels I noticed the machining on the pinion gears looked sloppy. I called tech support and they are sending me some replacement pawls for the pinion gears. I aslo bought some new pinion gears on my own. I am disappointed with the mower after such a short time. I am putting the replacement parts in and then will resharpen the reels. If it doesn't improve I am thinking about selling it. Haven't tried the resharpening kit yet.

We mow ten acres once per week. Whereas we have mowed only two weeks now the 5 gang mower seems to work well.
