Ya got me!!! Thought I'd see something about the FAB Four. LOL
I put out traps two days ago - they're munching the hell out of my blackberry plants. Never seen them this bad. Don't seem interested in the blueberries right next to them though. Traps are filling up quick. :D
Need more traps for...
Here's a screen shot of the brick and mortar on google earth. If it weren't 200+ miles one way I'd drive over and take a look. Looks like a used tractor lot. Good point about being paid off or stolen. I did see the two different websites, different names on the same building. If it is legit...
What about the acceleration sensor? It detects the amount of hand throttle lever and foot throttle operation. See page 9-S14 of the WSM for diagnostics.
My wife is browsing FB and comes across this...2021 BX23S FEL, BH, with 280 hours on it for $9K.
How is that possible? I'm tempted to cash in some 401K just to by it. I'd have to see if my MMM would fit.

Also...
Check to see if the dealership did any routine maintenance, depending on how many hours on the tractor. If it were mine I'd just go ahead and change all the fluids and filters and grease the daylights out of it for peace of mind. Check the wheel lug nut torques.

Welcome to OTT dot_bob.
So it's not a brand new tractor. Can't tell from your profile how much snow your area might have received or how old the tractor is so the amount of use or abuse is a question.
Snow and mud tracked in was probably never cleaned until it came time to sell it causing the...
Just a though...
Check in and around the switch / lever for dirt, debris - leaf, grass clipping etc. May be just enough dirt to act like a spring and only make contact when compressed. Hopefully it's something simple.
I looked into Flow-Hives a few years back, never pulled the trigger though. I like the manifold you set up, prevents open dripping which tends to attract bees looking for a "free" meal even if it is their own honey.
bxpanded.com has a kit with gage for the BX tractors for $69.
Check out " A RITTER BIT WILL DO " on you tube. He put on replacement cylinders from HydrosPlus about a year ago. They're pricey at $899 but give you better results.
As Greenvillejay says be aware of your tires AND front axle...
So what happened to " I'm not going to cut them. At least I'm smart enough not to try that." Sorry I just had to add the dig.
Using a hooked rug cutter blade is what I was thinking also, that's why I asked why not.
Welcome aboard Broken!!! Looks like you'll have a great little tractor there once you get it back together.
Trakter.com and Hoober.com both show it but neither state if it's actually available.
Hoober has it as a Special Order so they may or may not be able to even get one.
Side note: I see...
Does your ATV have a receiver hitch? If so you can get one of these Clevis Trailer Pin Mounts.
If not can you just unbolt the ball and use a Pin through the existing hole? Would be a PITA if you changed from one to the other very often but it may be a cheap option.
Since you state the obvious I can see it is very highly probability IMHO. My wife calls me Captain Obvious for a reason. LOL How about one of these? JK!
Guess I'm not that smart, please educate me. Why not cut them off?
If you're careful not to dig into the handle what am I'm missing?
Genuinely curious here.
I too use a HF blow gun. Only $9.
Plenty of money left over to get that air compressor. ;)
