MaineDad 87 #1 Posted August 18, 2011 Guys: Looking for your thoughts on how long I should wait to mow again after i just did a complete rebuild on my K301? It has about a 1/2 hour run time right now and all seems great. Looking forward to your thoughts... Micah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,918 #2 Posted August 18, 2011 If it were me, I would just use it. After the first mowing, change the oil and enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #3 Posted August 18, 2011 If it were me, I would just use it. Exactly! It shouldn't be any different than starting out with a new machine. Once you're sure nothing is going to fall off, have at it! :banghead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,333 #4 Posted August 18, 2011 Go ahead and mow. It's a good "under-load" break-in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
