Anybody having this same issue, is it normal. any fix for it? I don't think its normal for an $800 machine to run in this way. My old $150 POS MTD lawnmower works better under load. I would think a really nice Honda motor would do better. Any help or directions on this. Thanks.

I have a DRT900H tiller. The handle assembly broke at the weld and I'm replacing it. All went well except for the rubber grips. I twisted, pulled and even heated them but they didn't budge. How do I remove them and put the grips on the new handle assembly?
I had a broken drive chain to the wheels, opened the transmission (after moving Heaven and Earth to remove the wheel) and found only about one tube of packing grease (mostly settled in the bottom and clearly old and not very effective). After I replaced the chain, I repacked with three tubes, also coating the shift mechanism (space perhaps 2/3 full of grease). After reassembling I drove it 100 feet to pump the tires (all settings working except reverse). When I went to restart it, there was no power delivery to the wheels or tines, and when I released the transmission lever there was a temporary, unpleasant, grinding sound. This happened every time I released the lever to disengage the transmission. I'm sure I have broken the input pinion and/or other gears. How much grease should it have in the transmission after I take it apart and assess the damage and replace the parts?
