    Need advice

    Cutting the lawn and managed to chip the kerb resulting in bent blade. replacement blade fitted, but now there is excessive vibration from the engine.

    Suspect i've bent the crank shaft, so wondering can replacement cranks be purchased readily? Or can cranks be straightened?

    Thanks for reading

    The crank could be bent but Im also thinking the new blade is not balanced.

    Any good lawnmower service shop should have a tool for straightening the shaft, where are you located ?
