I tried to mow around it instead of shutting the mower down and moving it, but the vacuum created under the deck sucked the rope up under things and tightly wrapped itself around one of the blade spindles and slammed everything to a halt. The rope was also tied to a piece of log I'd used to throw the rope across a section of the lake to the dock to dislodge a tree I'd cut on the shoreline so it came flying right toward me. Luckily it missed and hit the side of the deck, but damned sure put the fear of things flying into me.. It took me about 2 hours to get the rope out from under the deck. I had to take off one blade and cut the rope into about 20 pieces.. FUN FUN FUN! No more rope to be left in the yard henceforth LOL
Similar thing happened to me last week but with a steel cable dog leash. I was pissed. I knew it was there but thought I was in the clear. Had to get wire cutters out and snip off pieces at a time. Sucked.
