I don't have a photo for you but I use a helper step too. I found one on the interstate at the scene of a truck wreck. It is a "D" shaped Aluminum step about 12" in back and maybe 10" in the front. Mine hangs from short lengths of chain maybe 10" long in 3 places. That way when I am in the wood...

I greased the hell out of it pumped her full I did.

I used the mower a bit today. I ran good I did not end up ordering a belt or primer. The belt I am sure is worn likely original to whatever year it is but the self-propelled portion does work. I took all wheels off for lube but specially the rear. I cleaned out the gear teeth on both the gear...

I always wanted a 2-stroke lawn boy now I have one. Course I have 2 other push mowers and a Wheelhorse, so I don't really need it. I want to look at the drive belt and transmission before I place my primer bulb order in case i need something else. For all I know the belt may not even be on the...

I got a free Lawn-Boy Gold Pro Series 6.5 push mower today from a neighbor. They had a FREE sign on it out beside the road, so I grabbed it. I have always wanted a 2-stroke Lawn-Boy. It Seems to run ok ( ie starts up) I needed a primer which I have found on the ole Amazon for $7.00. On the...

Great information I know this thread is old but I have just been looking at my Operators Manual and it gives very little information on bleeding air from our system. I have cleaned my fuel bowl and filter several times and never had an issue with getting air in the system. I generally just...

I too made a step for mine; I hung mine from chains though so that if I hit anything while in the wood's I would not bend anything the step would just swing out of the way.

I do the egg carton with sawdust and candle wax. I have never tried pinecones; do you treat them with anything or just light them? I will have to try them sometime.

ok thanks

I think it is item 14 but now he needs to find one someplace.

My cousin has a 1970s JD crawler dozer with a broken winch part. He is trying to find one but not having much luck, he is trying to find JD bone yards that may be able to help him. If anyone knows of such a place, please let me know and I will pass the information on to him. We are in Central...

Yea I know but I got to thinking, geese 27 year-old radiator hose ..... better get these changed out. You know where you end up then. I know now that they are all in great shape so I sleep better ha ha.
