Question
part of the blade has snapped off causing the balance to go and serious vibration, in the absence of any welding equiptment is the anything i can do?

Answer
 Hello Martin:

 Replace the Blade. Running the Mower with a Broken Blade will Cause More Trouble if it is Run Very Long this Way. Not to mention the Grass will be Cut Uneven. Hope this Helps. Let me know what Happens, Please. I enjoy knowing the Outcome. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully

 John
