Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Front Wheel Drive Sears-Honda Wheels Lock-Up In Reverse, self propelled lawn mower, honda wheels

Question
I have a Sears-Honda 07137683000 front wheel drive self-propelled lawn mower that the front wheels are locking-up in reverse with the drive unit disengaged. It is only one year old (May 08, 09 purchase). The drive gear box works fine going forward. What should I do. I looked at the wheels/shaft and I can turn it by hand in reverse, but when I pull the mower back (drive disengaged) the front wheels skid-along.
Please help! Dave

Hello David:

>>Sorry for the Delay. This Question was Located in the Question Pool and I can Only Answer Questions from the Question Pool when I am Not Answering Questions here or at the Other Site I Answer Questions at.
>>For Better Assistance, Send me the Model Numbers Off the Mower, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manual and Better Assist you. The Model Numbers are Usually Located Under the Seat (Ride On Mowers) on a Sticker or Tag on the Body. Examples: Honda Model Numbers; HR194 PXA, HRB215K2 SXA, ect. Example: Sears Model Numbers; 123.123456 .
>>From your Description it Sounds like you need to Disassemble and Clean the Wheel Assemblies.
>>Thanks.
