Not knowing which mower you have puts me at a disadvantage. Are you sure it’s adjusted correctly? Make sure it is as well as make sure you cut the lawn when it’s dry, this can make a difference. @Jim Adams,

Problem I have is binding with the reel. It'll do just fine for quite a while and then just bind up. Found I have to reverse the blades several times with my foot (wear well covered shoes). That tends to get the bind out...sometimes take several attempts. I have Bermuda and try to keep it cut once a week. Problem I have is binding with the reel.
