The snow is over in Indiana, Redbuds and dogwoods are blooming. Going through the mower deck, sanding and painting, replacing the belt, new zerks, stainless fasteners, its really looking good.

Washed the mud off then remover the tiller from the 312H.

 

 

Then installed the 48" SD.   The electric hoist really makes it easy to pick a deck from the storage skid and roll it in position under the raised tractor.

Cleaned Eaton 1100 fan on 520H. Its amazing what a little dish soap will do. Know I Gotta go clean sink out before warden gets home. All the chrome came off air cleaner lid so painted black and put American flag sticker on for the 250th anniversary of America. I did put everything but the hood back on and drove around the barn a couple times but forgot to take pictures. I know I know no pics didn’t happen rule applies. I believe I may get rid of foot control and go back to the column control, just cant get used to the foot control.

The Onan 16’s & 18’s that I’ve seen had black air cleaner covers. Heck, it’s under the hood so who’s gonna see it?!

Decided to take on a little yard work today and bust out both machines. Taking my yard back one gaffucci garden at a time. Then decided to finally make a front hitch using an  idea I saw on here of using an old mule drive. What a world of difference.

Rescued an orphaned snowplow today, guy threw in a set of tire chains (white bucket) as well. Was his father’s before he passed, his mom sold the tractor years ago, believed to be a 312-8, and the plow just collected dust.

 

Today was the first time I drove since January 19th, day of my rotator cuff surgery, felt good to be back in the saddle. 

Finally unloaded this from my truck on Saturday with the help of a neighbor, then removed my plow from my 312-8 and with the help of another neighbor we got the mower deck on and I commenced the 2026 lawn mowing season. Afterwards, I relaxed looking over my efforts while listening to good music and enjoying one of two very refreshing gin and tonics!

Haha! Reminds me of when I was still living at home right around 21yrs old. My grandpa owned 2 Cadillac dealerships so of course thats what we typically all drove. I was cleaning my Coupe deVille on a weekend & spending too much time trying to clean the wire wheel hubcaps. Got creative, removed them & put them in dishwasher! Mom was suspicious cause I was running dishwasher & her suspicion was right. Let's just say she wasn't really happy & what made things worse was when my dad found out he thought it was a great idea too!

When I worked 2nd shift at the hospital we were given the task of cleaning all the ceiling vents in one office. The guy with me says how we gonna do all these in one night? I told him get them all down and wait until the kitchen staff leaves. A commercial conveyor dishwashing machine works wonders!
