I had to weld my hood bracket in again. I should've "grinded" down the ends better.

Finished up a project to put a grill guard and weights on the front. I got a receiver hitch out of my neighbors scrap. Cut it down and welded a plate with bolts. The guard pivots down to open the hood. The weight is actually 2 75' plates i traded my neighbor for. There is a receiver welded to the plates so I can easily remove them. Drug a few logs out of the woods for firewood. Happy with it so far.
Next plan is to add box to it for carrying chainsaw and other tools.

I changed the oil and filter on my GC1723 today. Then I changed the fuel filter. What a pain. I don't have the mid mount mower, so the linkage that connects to the mower deck needed to be lowered to get access to the fuel filter. Well the knob that locks that linkage in the up position was frozen and would not turn. I had to put a wrench to it to get it to move. I was afraid I would break something, but all ended well. The linkage dropped down and when I was done, I put it back up and locked it in the up position again.

They must have changed something on the newer models. I don't have to lower the linkage on mine to to change the fuel filter.

I had to move a large rock out of a path through the woods today. To large to lift so I dug a hole and was able to stand up and roll in.
This small mf is a great little machine!

Anybody else have a problem with the boom control on their 1725mb. Second time it broke. Went to a different dealership and they had the new improved replacement. $190 part Kanuckistan money or aboot $5 US.
Easy enough fix but I wouldn't expect it twice in the first 120 hours with limited backhoe use.
