Why are they breaking? What are they hitting? You're Hydraulic Lift Linkage? With the cover off the drive shaft, engine running, ( be careful ) work your lift lever and watch your cylinder and its linkage move. There's a part that hindges before it actually starts to lift your deck. (float) It can be locked in a streight position by moving the pin into the other hole.. I broke a brand new fan myself, thought I had it back far enough on the shaft but that hydro lift caught it , GONE! ( BE CAREFUL ) That cover is on there for a reason!!!!! The next new fan I bought I took a 1/4 inch off the tip of each blade with the bench grinder for clearence. Good Luck ! ( this was on my 149 )
