Pullstart 62,787 #5565 Posted June 29, 2020 More progress on the new food plot. I am amazed at what this sickle mower will eat! I did however find a tree that tossed the belt. 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jhook 849 #5566 Posted June 30, 2020 Well i figured out the reverse mowing system. A seperate key under the seat that must be held in the crank postion the entire time mowing backwards. Not very convenient. Also got it moved to its temporary parking underneath my deck til i get proper watertight storage. At least its out of the sun all day 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tuul Crib 7,336 #5567 Posted June 30, 2020 Shhhhhh!!! IRV is tucked in! have to keep one of my tractors in the crib so when I start to kick up dust I have something to cover it with. 4 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,776 #5568 Posted June 30, 2020 Nothing bad about OCD Johnny... usually means things are done right Put the go fast pulleys on Cindy's 702 and @Racinbob 's calcs were spot on! This thing goes! Karen (my GPS) said 8 - 10 MPH. No idea on engine rpm ... who cares I was flying! Bad news lug bolts on left side loose and I KNOW I torqued them to the max specs of 7/16 bolt. May try some loctite or switch to studs? Same thing happened at a show once. 1 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or whatever 80s-90s tractor is easiest to fabricate a loader for. Fabrication isnt an issue, hydraulics arent my strong suit though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least its out of the sun all day My 17-44 has that switch as well but you just need to turn it once after the deck is engaged and it is good to go until you disengage the deck. An indicator light on the dash lights up to tell you this backup while mowing function has been activated. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
