Default Any lawnmower experts here? ( cotter pin )

Quick question, hope some kind person has the answer-

Just picked up a new mower at Sears today. Sear Craftsman #917.377121
Self-propelled, key-start, variable speed EZ walk. 21" Hi-vac 3-1 cut
system.

When I unpacked the mower I found a cotter pin lying at the bottom of the
box. I've looked all over the mower, top, sides, and underneath and can't
find where the pin should go. Any ideas?

THANKS, PHIL


Can not help with that.

Last week I bought a tiller from them and wish I had checked it out beter.
After using it about 5 minuits, the drive belt came loose. Put it on and 30
seconds later it came back off. Found 3 of the 4 mounting bolts for the
motor missing. The 4 th was loose. Found one nut and bolt in the garden.
Then found one nut in the back of my truck. Very poor quality control.
