Masport President 3000 Questions & Answers
Verified
I have the Masport 3000 President with electric start but it will not start. I press the button to start but the little green leds on the battery flash and the mower does not turn over or try to start. What cfould be the problem? I think the battery is full charged because press the tester button on the battery all the LEDs light up.

I've drained the oil and about to refill. I don't want to overfill. What oil volume should I pour in?
I would put 0.45 litres, run it unloaded for a few minutes, let it cool, check again and top up. Should take 0.5 litres.
My lawn (couch) has a steep slope, hence the need to have a self-propelled mower. Will the President 3000 ST S19 Combo SP be able to drive itself while cutting up the slope? (Slope is approx 1 in 6 so I think that the 150 cc wouldn't be powerful enough).
Hi Leo, I purchased this mower & paid $900 & have found the mower disappointing. My lawn is couch & has a steep slope as I live on the Clarence River NSW. The self propelling is not powerful enough & if the grass is to thick or long the height adjustment could have more ground clearance as it fails to cut the grass properly. Had I known all this I would not have purchased this mower. Even on flat ground the mower is disappointing. Cheers Steve

Is the mower powerful enough to cut thick Kikuyu lawn with just a 150cc engine.
It is if you don't lower the height too low,it surprisingly cuts my Kikuyu lawn really well but I don't overload the mower like most people do. The newer Briggs and Stratton engines seem to have more power than the older ones. Very happy with mine!
Replace blades
What is your question? Happy to help if I can.
What size blades are required
Hi Erin, I have no idea of what size the blades are, but it is the Masport Quadcut Blade Disc System with 4 blades
What replaces the president 3000st 19 now that it is superseded
My mower which was purchased literally a month ago, and I have mowed only once does not start? I have checked the filter, spark plugs and everything is clean, so I am surprised at this..
I have now experienced my first issue. The front axel needs replacement. It's in the shop waiting parts. Unit still starting and mowing well.
I have had my new Masport mower for a few months and have had no issues. It does however require a decent pull on the starter cord to make it start first go.
what petrol do we use for the self-propelled 3000ST?
Standard unleaded. Not premium not E10.
Which Masport / B&S engines have steel sleeved cylinders?

Look for the label that has "I/C " on engines it means industrial and commercial these engines are of a stronger build compared to domestic or homeowner engines ie the entry level Just a tip when you get any engines for mowers run it for 1 hour and change oil when hot then next change at 5 hrs then every 25 hours after that- that first hour oil change really cleans the internals of the engine from that day onwards
Unfortunately I was hoping for a mower model description, as I am wishing to purchase a new machine.
Thanks for your effort/response
