On my 1772, the spring that holds the side panels together near the radiator keeps breaking. I am on my second or third spring right now and that just broke today after doing the first mowing on the lawn. Something is not right here. I have a 1572 and that has never had one of these springs break. Unless I am doing something wrong...?
Has anyone had a problem with their 1772? Can some of the guys posts some pictures showing how the springs are routed? After the second one broke, I tried routing it in different paths to see if it helps. It seems to have an abnormally high tension when connecting the one panel to the other. Could it be another part number is required for the 1772? Also the spring always tries to rest between the screen and the radiator. I'm afraid that if it breaks again it could take out and puncture a tube on the radiator.
