rick 308 #26626 Posted 11 hours ago I swapped out the blades on the 48" deck, checked the oil in the M14 Kohler and filled the fuel tank with 89 E10 then spent 3 hours cutting the grass. I'm rehydrating now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessons learned...black hoods are too wide to clear the hydraulic pump and a shaker plate calls for an inch or so shorter belt It's always something. Well, I said it's always something but sometimes it's a few things...brake shaft and one axle seal now leak. Replacements (and spares) will be here this weekend. I have bearings on hand but no gasket for the case so hopefully it's just seals... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
