HOW CAN I FIX MY FLYMO ELECTRIC LAWNMOWER (METAL BLADE TYPE)?

MACHINE IS SMOKING AFTER A MATE BORROWED IT FOR CUTTING VERY LONG GRASS.
JOANNE HOWARD, June 2006
Sounds like its had it mate! Troble with cutting long grass is it unbalances the motor causing listing in the motor housing which in turn burns out one side of the motor windings. You may be lucky though and just have a lot of crap in there.
