    Pine trees in Central Florida

    They do not rot so fast. The outer part does but the heart stays a LONG time. I've got stumps behind my shop I cut down in '92. If you could find someone with one of those huge backhoe or skidsteer stump grinders, but at $50 to $80 a stump, might be a little $$$$$$.

    preheat engine block diesel trucks

    How long do you guys preheat your engine blocks , ( not glow plugs) in 0 to 25 degrees f for starting? I have an f250 7.3. Sometimes it sets for a week or 2 before starting and I don't want to leave the block heater on all the time.

    Fool Me Once....

    ?Wireing in a switch to bypass a safety switch is a good thing. I have one on my seat switch. I mow on a bank and leaning to the high side causes the eng to shut off. Very aggravating.

    Someone is going to get sued big time over wrong use of a drone. I can just imagine some idiot flying one in front of a car , woman driver with a child inside. She swerves, wrecks and the child gets killed.

    Newbie

    Ive said before, if I had to get rid of all my stuff, the bx would be the last to go. Just this weekend, I was walking my dog and saw a large dead pine had fallen across the neighbors driveway. Got the bx and my chain saw and had his driveway cleared in 20 minutes.

    BX23S mower linkage

    The height knob just stops the linkage from dropping any lower than the setting on the knob. Raise the 3 point rear linkage all the way up, turn the height knob to the lowest setting, then lower the 3 p point hitch. The mmm linkage should come down. If it doesn't, look for it hitting something...

    Toothbar doesn’t fit. Poor customer service?

    I've been in business for 40 years. Early on I decided that I wanted to have the best customer relations in my business. Sometimes I had to empty my wallet to make that happen but it was allways rewarded by a very satisfied customer who later would send me more business than it had cost me to...

    Quick Hitch

    Forgot to mention, what I didn't know at the time I bought my first tractor was, all the pins, top and bottom, are different diameters from cat 1 to cat 3. Tractor supply has a chart above the parts bin for clevis pins and pto shafts. I took a picture of it for myself.

    Quick Hitch

    And the most annoying thing is no standardization. When I bought my qh, it only fit one of my attachments, all the rest had to be slightly or major modified. Some were 1/2 too wide to fit the qh and some were 1/2 too narrow. At least now , they all fit. The only one I have to get off the...

    BX2200 Transaxle leak

    Too late for you but maybe can help others later. Clean everything off good the dust with baby powder, or any talcum powder. Most containers are plastic and have the lid with holes in it. Just a couple of quick squeezes will push the powder out and against whatever is leaking. Then run it and...
