Ok, I’ll try to get a few pics up today. I didn’t post at first because I was just to embarrassed and did not want to shame myself in front of all the hard core tractor folks.

I’m reinstalling my mower deck today as well as my bagger so I can get the hang of it well it’s nice out. The bagger is a pain but I need the practice. As soon as I’m done I will take some pics

By the way, I’m those people that waxes anything that has paint on it!

Bagger Install

Try this out. Works good for me. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Installation of the bagger is a real pain in the butt if you don't have a good technique!

I believe firmly in making the tractor feel happy, that way it will want to return the favour in increased perfomance and the suchlike. i wax all my tractors, after washing them after every mow or when the treads on the tyres get filled with dirt. if it is dry and dusty during a mow (rarely, dry...england...nah) i brush them down rather than wash them
apart from making the tractor feel loved it gives you a chance to look over it to see ony oil leaks, rust ect ect. in the long run it probably makes its value far far higher.
but im wierd, so im probably the only one that does this (no before someone says it, i dont wax the welder.......that was a rumour.....)

Mith,

We share the same philosophy! And believe it or not, so do my tractors!

At the end of a hard days work, to show my appreciation, I will often take a pint out to both of them, along with one for myself.

They normally show their appreciation by abstaining...leaving me to do what I want with the extras... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
