Steven, I have gone through my manual and I found nothing in there about vibration or timing. I think that mower has preset timing.

On occassion I have had the vibration problem but it ended very quicky, when I cleaned out the blade or change the PTO speed. It usually happened to me when the blade was overloaded. Does it vibrate when you lift the blade and run it free (not down in and cutting) at what speed?

Is the belt tight? Manual says "The belt should depress 3/4" to 1" at the midpoint with 20 lb. pressure. YOu may need to adjust the tensin on the belt to keep it from whipping and flopping and setting up a vibration as it goes up to speed. I had to put extra washers (spacers) on the tensioner screw. Good luck, but I don't think the manual will help here.

By the way have you greased the points in the gear box that you can only reach with the blade horizontal and the mower lifted?

I have 2-- MF41 mowers. I bought a manual from my local MF dealer. Think it cost about $15. If you don't have a local dealer I will give you the name of mine and thay will mail you the manual with a credit card purchase. They mail me most of my parts.

Not sure what you mean by Lopping?

Mine are both very easy to turn by hand if you turn the gear box pulley when the tractor is off and the PTO in neutral.

Tell me what is happening and I will tell you what i have learned about setting up these mowers.
