Mower says nope! » |
Full story time now
Start mowing, much needed - weeks behind...
Mover deck drive belt breaks.
Okay..i mean belts do wear out.
I took the opportunity to give the deck some love - pressure wash, lubricate, replace spindle bearings, sharpen the blades.
Put all back together, engage the deck..and the engagement cable broke.
Okay, that's not something I am gonna find local sooo...lets switch to the old Yardman.
It's deck is stupid heavy, prolly close to 200Lbs but I got it on, installed the new blades i had for it from a long time ago.
Started mowing, got 2/3rds done and poof - Yardman just dies in the yard.
No idea what wrong, he's 30 years old and I think it's a wiring/safety circuit issue.
Thought about push mowing but its way to humid and i just spent 2 days hard labor trying to get everything running.
I'll push mow a little here and there.
Meanwhile I have a pile of parts coming from the amazon because you can't buy anything local anymore and I think all these parts are all made in china so they will be shit quality.
