    Last week I installed these powder coated screen guards (6" x 3' lengths) on our 40' X 30' detached garage; about 85 linear ft with a minimal manipulation wastage. Wanted to try something different around the house. The SS mesh gutter screen reviews are generally positive, but there are some...

    SA424 Air filter housing rubbing

    After I finished mowing today, I took some pictures of the air filter setup on my SA425. It looks similar to your setup and I am sure eventually it will start gouging a crease into the radiator top. There is minimal gap (~1 mm) between the housing and radiator. What I am going to do is get a...

    SA424 Air filter housing rubbing
