Snoopy11 5,714 #201 Posted December 5, 2022 Got the bumper attached permanently. The U-bolts did such a good job of securing the bumper to the machine, I don't really feel like it needs any other support. I can pick up the back of the tractor with the bumper... (I know, could hurt my back, but I only did it 1 time before I was wishing for Tylenol)... Also got everything on the machine lubricated. Just waiting on one more deck pulley and the deck will be finished (should come in the mail tomorrow). Don 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snoopy11 5,714 #207 Posted December 18, 2022 I also tightened up the rod for the PTO... 'cause it wasn't engaging properly. Now... it is... Video of it running. https://photos.app.goo.gl/1vWxbUAQSAE3Zaji8 Don 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
