Very hard to squeeze. Dumped fluid out and put new in. If it had air in it it would be like a sponge right. Only has 8hrs on motor but has always been this hard.

Do you have the new style or old?


If old style... try putting some WD40 on the lever or loosening the bolts that hold the lever & reservoir to the tiller arm.

mine was hard to squeeze brand new, took two hands to put it in the locked position. Now with 75 hours, its a lot looser.
