Be cool if you'd just get straight to the point. We obviously know how it got bent. 😒 useless video.

those LT series cub cadet decks go threw belts like mad, very poor design with the pully system from MTD

Was dying to look from that discharge end straight across both blades because I'm a carpenter mechanic LOL

From the looks of it, deck has much more going on with it than just being bent! Cannot fix the rust-weakened stress points or the metal fatigue from all the obvious abuse. From a safety standpoint, buy a good used deck from the lawn mower salvage yard. Cannot believe someone would allow their deck to get in that bad of shape to begin with. Do not want to EVEN think about the condition of the engine or transmission - Oh my!

Way over the top IMHO. Special tools, custom built steel stand. This isn’t easily replicated without spending hundreds of dollars and time. It took me less than a minute to hammer mine top deck back into spec

i could have hammered 8 decks straight in the time it took to watch this video

She was workin' that weight transfer! 😎

Good idea on the table configuration. Also, using the hydraulics, there's no noise ! Great job...

I can’t remember exactly but I believe I had to be careful when making the adjustments to the hangers that the threaded rod wasn’t sticking up to high that it would come in contact with the belt when cutting at the highest setting. 🤷‍♂️. It’s been a while 10-12 years it I’m glad I realized it at that time. I’m getting ready to change the drive belt and two pulleys and I saw your video about the pulley above the transmission and I’m wondering if that’s not the noise I am hearing. My drive belt is original from 2011. Shouldn’t I change now ? I’m also gonna adjust my pedals. I can’t thank you enough for your videos on the JD x300. 🙏🙏🙏

How to set or adjust…

Thanks for the information. My 27 hp B&S will crank but wont start. If I spray in carb cleaner, it will start. I'm thinking the auto choke is sticking. I have had to start it this way the last 3 times. I will check the condition of the choke. Thanks

What loader and backhoe is that

Genius, I’m gonna use my hydraulic jack against something this is perfect 👍

I'm not impressed by this content. This can be found on Google.

Thanks for the information. Please dont zoom in and out constantly. Find what you need to concentrate on and stay there.

I had left a piece of 4x4 in tall grass next to a beehive and it did a number on my Snapper mower deck when i ran over it. Didn't have a fancy table like you but I used the same concept with a few well-placed pipe clamp squeezes. Came out great. Thanks for your inginuity!

Hey 👋

No copper Ts, it looks like grey like PolyB?

Been curious about my Yamaha. Good video

Question, what would be the cause of the drive assist not working fully? When I squeeze the drive lever completely it won’t drive. But if I squeeze just a little, it will go.

My last 3 gen 2 batteries lasted 3 years 2 months. I write the date on the battery when I get them. Overall not impressed with how long they last. The 2 gen 3 batteries I have now are showing signs of degradation with shorter run times at 18 months.

I have the ST224p. I've noticed that sometimes during use of the self propel, something seems to slip and it won't propel itself. Would I need to replace the drive belt? Or is there something with the friction disc going on?

Thank you 😊

Should you replace the crank seals when you replace the gaskets?

i got a new one too and mine boggs down pretty bad thinking of turning up the air mixture any thoughts on it.

Ive had this happen on an x304 and x300 where it totally stripped the teeth. On one i just used jb weld in the splines on the old pulley. Worked great. New pulley is $35

Why did Husqvarna make 2 saws so close in comparison?

can this fuel treatment be used with red armor oil? in the same 50:1 mix?

Thank you so much for this. Finding any bit of information on this is a pain, and it is next to impossible to find any of the fittings or piping to replace of a few places charging like $20 for a fitting. I will probablly just look into replacing since this is the second time I've had a fitting break

My Uncle(owner of the Everglades Farm Equipment in Florida), brought a John Deere 420 in 1989 up to the family's summer property in North Carolina to mow 3 acres. It replaced a 318, that my grandfather used for several years. They had the 420 until 1998, when my uncle brought over a JD 455. The thing with the 420, was it got the yard mowed in about an hour or so, which was neat. Of course, trying to mow with it on a slope near a spring was tough, as sometimes the tractor would slide.

Somebody actually left one on my corner with a bunch of other things I believe they thought it did not run anymore Took it home cleaned it fresh gas new spark plug fired right up I totally loved having this small little sore it is so handy for so many things

How is the saw 4 years later in Dec 23? Is the trigger variable speed ? Anything break on the saw?

The Simplicity’s floating deck is a huge part of the even cut you get not just the strip it provides in your grass. It really does provide a better cut, but is more complicated and probably more maintenance. It’s all about the float. Important to some and not to others. I bought a John Deere S120 because I have a small yard, unaware that they put a total crap trans called TL2000 in them unlike these mowers with the K46. Looking to replace the JD before it dies at 200 hrs. They said I shouldn’t even be pulling a leaf sweeper in the fall with that machine. Not capable, lol.

We have 10 top handle saws , it's the 2 echo cs2511 's that get used the most . The handle feels just right in your palm , they dont clog up in the clutch cover when cutting small material , good performance and super lightweight make these unbeatable. Speed cut nano kits are available to change to mini 325 pitch

Now that's what a call a weed trimming demonstration! Real thick, tall stuff, not slightly overgrown grass like a lot of other videos. I'm guessing the newer gens with 2 speeds and rear motor models are even better.

Pretty slick! Necessity is the mother of invention.

got a surplus of the pipe and copper fittings and stuff still, great for ponds and water features. i did run a hose bib with it tho, but it's easy to access and i will be seeing it often lol

I have this problem after a visit to the dealer who updated the software. It turned out that when I bought a new power supply transformer a few years ago I bought a smaller one than recommended. Not sure how that happened! It worked fine for years (although it would have taken slightly longer to charge but no problem for me) until I got the new software. The only solution was to replace the transformer to the one recommended for my model at a considerable cost. You can turn off the charging safety feature in the advanced menu - but only temporarily. The time before it reactivates gets shorter and shorter the most you use it.

Every torque I needed. And I needed every torque! 80 psi compression didn't seem to work.

I've had a 450 for about 12 yrs now. LOVE IT. Absolutely love the start/choke combo. Very convenient and not having to touch it again for restarts is awesome from the auto return kill switch. Did have to replace oiler w one from 455/460 when I put the 20" on it. Wouldn't cut it even cranked way up on adjustment

agree

Ok, so I have a question for anyone that owns one of these. I am currently looking at buying one second hand from a friend. The LCD screen is 80% out. Only the right 20% works. I hooked it up to the app via Bluetooth and it works like a gem. So the question is: is the power station still going to function normally even though the screen is broken? The app seems to have more info anyway. Just for context, it has 4- 7.5ah batteries and he is selling it for 800 Canadian Dollars.

It’s amazing how something you do can help someone five years later here we are, five years later from when you did this video. My dad just gave me one of these completely torn apart in a box like you just did. He said it lacked compression so he tore it apart, and the only thing that appeared to be wrong is the compression ring was stuck closed because of not being run in a while. He went and got a brand new one identical to this And gave me his old one which should still be in perfectly good condition once I get it back together! Thanks a lot brother.

Many, many thanks. Perfect.

A great technique to removing the magnetic clutch worked first try

Would have liked to see how they cut different wood in different situations.

I work in a scrapyard, one of these came in just a little worse condition than the one youve shown. Of course any chainsaw that comes in I gotta give er a haul and see how it feels. With no gas and a shitty spark plug that thing wanted to GO. Fresh gas and a new spark plug and she fired up in the yard. Immediately went to my boss like "can I have this? We didnt pay anything for it buddy just wanted it gone", and I got to take her home. Mine doesn't have the chain break, as well it has a different style throttle. Same throttle lock but the throttle is white and runs the entirety of the bottom half, exact same styling as a Stihl TS420. Love that little saw, chain on er was still even good.

These things are toys not tools!

I expected that the Planetary Gearset would be disassembled showing the 3 small gears on each side and how they mesh with the Sun gear. Often the splines on the Carrier get damaged and slip.

Great vid, thanks for the info. It helped me out today big time!
