    Land Pride adjustments for my pasture

    Sounds very much as if you are a bit too low. Raise it up to where there is 2.5"-3.0" clearance for the skids in the front and also set your mower so there is a slight 'rake' forward. In other words.... the front is slightly lower than the rear. This lets the blades cut the grass at the front...

    WESTINGHOUSE GENERATORS

    Perfect then, already set up for it. You never know when folks post stuff if they are aware of the needs or not. Should have known you would be. (y)

    WESTINGHOUSE GENERATORS

    Hopefully you are going to shave one of the Zero's off of that figure. 60 feet instead of 600 feet? That would be a LONG way and would require some very large cable to prevent voltage loss. Presumably the GenSet has a NEMA 14-50R receptacle (50 amp).

    WESTINGHOUSE GENERATORS

    Mine was made in Vietnam. It is much higher quality than the price suggests. Currently the Westinghouse gensets are selling briskly for just this reason.

    WESTINGHOUSE GENERATORS

    ^^^^ Before you are too quick to disparage products made in China (or elsewhere overseas) recognize that they are capable of making some really good stuff. The difference between Chinese JUNK and decent products... lies with the specifications for the product and quality control. I would...

    WESTINGHOUSE GENERATORS

    I don't have a dual or tri-fuel Westinghouse, but I have a smaller unit (WGen3600C) which is a 3600 watt (4650 Surge) unit. I use it to power fans, lights, battery charger, etc....at my 'shooting shed'. I didn't want to put my good Yamaha unit down there. I have been pleasantly surprised at...

    How about a 6 ply roof

    Two Questions: 1. How much does all that weigh 2. What is the proper inflation for a roof like that. ;)

    L2250 tires help

    Different engine on your L2250. Your tractor is the direct predecessor to my L2350.

    L2250 tires help

    My L2350 also has a 11.2 x 24 rear tire and the fronts are 7-16 on a 16" wheel.

    Any grass gurus here?

    There are certain aspects of growing grass/other on sandy soil that hold true no matter where you are. 1. Sandy Soil doesn't hold water/moisture well, so a drought resistant grass is best. 2. Sandy Soil leaches out nutrients, so fertilizing periodically is a must. You can grow just about...

    Engine Block Heater Install

    Actually....I am getting ready to do this as well. I didn't get around to it last winter as intended....so I am going to do it now. I plan to use a sealing product also (whether actually needed or not).

    Everything Attachments says on Fb they are back

    Even IF the C/C companies reimbursed those affected, THEIR recourse would be with EA. It is doubtful EA could re-emerge/restructure as a solvent company without having some arrangement for restitution with the parties involved. Bankruptcy events are often messy and the company involved may at...

    Everything Attachments says on Fb they are back

    Hope it works out for them. I know that some customers got the short end of the stick because of it all. But they make mighty good equipment. Just need to get their business practices all ship shape.

    Tomorrow is mowing day!

    Better keep an eye out for fawns. I try not to mow any more than necessary until August when the fawns are bigger and can follow 'momma' around. When newborn or for the first week to 10 days, they just lay hidden and won't move. Easy to run one over. And that is one sick feeling....believe me.

    Old ammunition

    Correct. And even when a cartridge 'cooks off' it is the brass (typically lighter than the bullet weight) that is propelled a small distance. No real danger there, though most fire depts DO want to know if there is ammo in a building that is on fire.

    Do your brush hog blades "droop"

    No...mine do not do that. I expect there is some 'wear' someplace allowing that to happen. Certainly not a design feature. Centrifugal Force would tend to keep the blades on a level plane (unless an object were struck), so the mower should still cut fairly well under most circumstances.

    Old ammunition

    You don't say what kind of ammo ( rifle, pistol) and what it will be shot from. IF shot from a semi-auto and you have any reservations about the reliability of the ammo, don't shoot any 'Rapid Fire' until you are satisfied the ammo is OK. You don't want to have a 'Squib Load' stick in the...

    Old ammunition

    I have some 44 mag cartridges that I loaded back in the mid 70's that still shoot fine. Don't know if that is your concern or not (age of ammo). Give it to someone who can use it.

    Buying a used machine

    ^^^^^ Correct. It's only when you DON'T have an extinguish at hand.....that you'll need one.
