Need to work on rewiring wiring under the console. But it's been 100f and will be for another week. There are other things I can do for the time being.
Makes me wonder if you didn't have the PTO at 540.A friend is going to be borrowing the flail mower this weekend and he came by last night to check it out before we headed out to dinner. It was leaving a strip of uncut grass a bit left of center of the cutting head so I figured that a hammer was knackered. When I raised and rotated the head I saw that two hammers were stuck together due to a thick wad of grass and so weren't able to cut. Not sure if this is a common problem or not.
After clearing the grass and making sure that the two hammers were free to rotate I made a couple of short passes to see how it was doing, and all is good ... until the next time. You can see the strip of uncut grass in the photo below more to the right, and the much improved passes more to the left.

My friend wanted a "lesson" and he did just that initially and created a big clump of cut grass. He has an L4060 and wasn't used to anything in the MX. But in fairness to him, it was doing it before he tried it. I run it around 540 rpm but I wonder if a bad hammer could cause this to happen.Makes me wonder if you didn't have the PTO at 540.
You must have some really flat ground, sometimes I wish my 60” was 48”Yes, Landpride FDR 2584. Great piece of equipment.
Pretty much flat and maybe 100' above sea level.You must have some really flat ground, sometimes I wish my 60” was 48”
Wow. It looks so clean and shiny. Nice.Greased the FEL for the first time on the LX tonight @11 hours. Pumped some Li400 through all 12 of the zerk fittings until I saw nothing but Li400 coming out and wiped the old moly/synthetic grease away. Capped off all the zerks with lock n lube's yellow caps.
Will probably hit the 3 underbody fittings tomorrow before I go grind stumps.
