Question: how long did you let it run when it began shaking violently? Did you shut the pto off immediately upon feeling the vibration? A rotary cutter (brush/bush hog) has to spin up some rpms to let centrifugal force "throw" the blades out straight, as a few members have said already. If...

Haven't seen this question, sorry if I missed it; what transmission range are you mowing in?

" I think I will go there and offer $750, after getting the actual details / history" I would bet there's no "there" there. A $28000 machine for $1000? There's an immediate scam alert. If you contact him about going to see it, I'm sure you will get the standard response of "I'm selling it for...

Yes. The calculator is located behind you between your lower back and the top of your legs. When it gets that funny "tingle", set the loader down and do it fast. It also works as an angle calculator. It works in conjunction with that thing on your shoulders, though some of us have a bad...

"Maybe it should go into politics". What makes you think it isn't ?

Glad you got it fixed. As you probably already know, don't EVER let any Campers World work on your unit for ANY reason. Have my own bad experience and every person with a camper I've talked to always start with "ohh, Campers World...." while shaking their heads no followed by their own bad...

I don't know if such a thing exists, but search for a speedometer app for your phone that reads out in hundredths of a mph, then go "road" test it. Ask the guy how he got his figure and make him prove it to you. Or, road test it and see if it "feels" right. If it's a dealer, make him bring it to...

Do ya suppose his daughter fell asleep during the test like I did? :D

"$79 HF flux core MIG welder.... " Looks more like a 12 volt battery and jumper cables did this job.

I think it was partly (or completely) because of the shortage & supply chain issues. I got it from their website last year when it disappeared off the shelves. Said they were only doing bulk sales. I signed up for the email that would say "when it is available in my area again". Still waiting...

Me too, until I couldn't get it. Still not a certainty here. Might find some, might not.

T6 is full synthetic. T4 is conventional. T5 is semi synthetic. I switched to Valvoline Blue full synthetic 5W40 in my truck & tractor and like it. I've always used Valvoline in all my other non-diesel apps & it's always been excellent. I feel like Shell kinda dumped on all us regular guys when...

I've had a set of 'em for years. And I bought them for.........square headed drain plugs! 😁 +1 on the pipe wrench for rounded ones.

My father had a sign in his workshop that said "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

Mine's at 10 o'clock on my L3800. Steer with my left hand, right hand does the loader joystick & three point. When I'm going straight ahead, it's never changed position in 8 years. Also have one on an Ingersoll 4020PS hydraulic steering. That one is all over the place.
