VirginiaFlintKnapper and I went out to the Lignite Mines and decided to visit the ghost town. While there, I decided to get some drone shots of the land. During flight, I experienced some weird activity. For more information on my experiences, email me at thiskiddstudios@gmail.com. As always, thanks for watching!

Speeding STi gets what he has coming
zhlédnutí 99Před 4 lety
Traveling home I encountered a Subaru WRX STi. At the time I was going around 59 mph in a 55 mph zone. The STi was easily going 70 mph around blind curves. Usually you wonder where the cops are when you need them. In this case the sheriff deputy couldn't have been in a better place. Dash Camera: Rexing V1P Pro

Thanks for the great video. I didn't realize that it actually has 4. What is the 4th grease fitting for? Also, the view window for the gas, does it actually go all the way up and down with the amount of gas you have? I'm asking because my gas viewing window level doesn't seem to move. It's always about an inch from the bottom. Even when I put about 5-6 gallons of gas in it, the level window did Not move at all.
yes you can, dont remove anything. jack up mower use 90 degree coupler, very easy
At 4:45 are you supposed to top it off if it doesn’t have any oil?
Thank you thank you great video
Great job man helped a lot
There are grease gun accessory kits you can get that have 45 and 90 deg fittings to do these.
4:00...I'm thinking you aren't going to pump much with that short pick up tube. 4:25....it grew!.......Thanks for the upload on this.
The lady I bought my house from left a me Exmark Pioneer and trying to find a concise maintenance model short of a PHD thesis on engineering is impossible. There must be 20 different models! And secondly, why aren't the barring's packed instead of circa 1970s grease gun technology?
These grease points are not actually intended to be greased by the average homeowner I assume.
Great job.... thanks
Just to let everyone know if this exmark is still under warranty do not use the kit that this guy has, because if it is under warranty you must use everything by exmark or not it could void the warranty, once your mower is no longer under warranty than you can use whatever parts you want.
Fourth fitting was pointed down on mine, luckily…. Great video!
From an engineer's perspective, it appears the whole design is to make maintenance as egregious as possible so you take it to the dealership...Geeze. Back in the day, you could change the oil, blades etc in less than two hours.
Just FYI, here are the instructions from a dealer for how to add the fluid after draining. You will find a vent plug located on each transaxle. Loosen this plug on each side. You will fill the hydro oil through the expansion reservoir until oil comes out of the vent plug. Once you see oil coming out of the plugs, tighten the vent plugs. Obviously, this is much easier than pumping fluid up into the vents. Also, the manual instructions say to do the following to remove air in the system: Start your mower and increase the throttle to about ½ throttle. Release the parking brake. Make sure the bypass valve is open and slowly move the motion control levers both forward and reverse about 6 times. Close the bypass valve and repeat the same procedure moving the levers both forward and reverse about 6 times. Check the oil level with the mower in the off position and once the hydros have cooled. Add more oil if needed until it reaches the “full cold” line shown on the expansion reservoir. You may need to repeat the steps to purge the air. Once your drive tires move at normal speed and the noise level seems correct you can stop.
Great video - For that last hard to grease fitting - I did just what everybody else did, I rotated the fitting so I can get the grease gun on it. these grease point are not high pressure so there is no real chance of leaks etc if you loosen the grease fittings slightly. But great video
Good video but I think you should have mentioned a little more details like how much oil in each side, etc... but very informative - thx
Just rotate the grease zert to point down so you can easily get your grease gun on it.
My filters were super tight, didn’t have a strap wrench ended up using a clamp. 2023 radius E 48” model doesn’t have a reservoir. Manual says just to pump through top port or you can add through fill port till it comes out top port. Steering is more even now and feels faster. Thanks for the video.
The last zirk was pointed down for me as well. I jacked the rear to get a good look at it but in the future I'll probably just be able to lock on without jacking.
Awesome. My Quest S manual is less than informative on this service. Thanks.
Instead of removing the bracket to grease serk why not just loosen it a quarter turn?
Good video! Straight to the point with all the necessary information needed!
Over 500 hours on my Radius. I grease all four points every 25 hours. FWIW I use a right angle attachment on my grease gun for both wheels and for the zerk at the back of the deck. For the zerk under the engine, I just rotated the fitting to point to the rear and the straight grease gun fitting works fine. No need to do the disassembly you are going through.
Do you trim both hydraulic filter the same way
You show the rear wheels off the ground but how did you lift the rear? Where would you place a jack?
Can we get this tccc shit done already
Dealer told my I had to use the Exmark brand fluid for warranty. Just saying .
The owner’s manual says you can use Mobil 1 15w50. I can’t imagine they’d void the warranty if that’s right in the manual.
👍🏼👍🏼
Just turn the grease zerk
The right-side transmission vent bolt has the grease zerk in the way. Super hard to get to. Is venting just the left-side ok, do you think?
Thanks for the video on hydro oil change the only thing I miss is the hole where to refill the transmition
Awesome video. I thought I would need a jack or lift. But I don’t, thanks for what you do!
You can’t just pour it all through the expansion tank? I also have a bad boy and poured it through the expansion tank
So thier only 3 oil fitting on the new ones,, I like to know, , im highly getting one, but I am doing my homework before I buy, this is a lot of money to put in one
Good video. I have a 2023 radius e series and can only find 2 grease fittings, is that correct ?
I have 2022 Radius E, 48" deck and I have 4, just like this video shows.
Here’s my question on this though. Where are the bleeder valves located on the transaxles for the bleeding process?
New style hydros don't need or have a vent bleeding valve according to the dealer.
My 2023 radius E only has them on front casters now
Great video! Wish it took 7 minutes to complete.😂
How high do you set the throttle for mowing?
Use mine at a 17 acre cemetery, I run 3/4 throttle
Should always run at full throttle while blades are engaged. I typically run 1/2 to 3/4 on levers for forward movement. The latter depends on current cut quality and grass thickness. If you don't like how it's mowing reduce forward speed but always maintain full throttle.
❤great video
what is the part number for the kit you used in the video ? I have a radius S series ZT-3100 so the kit you used will work.
My vent bolts are 11/16 not 13/16
You say to repeat the same steps for the other size, but the other side does not have a 11/16 bolt to refill. So how did you add to the side under the reservoir tank. I’m guessing you poured it into the reservoir like some of the comments I’m reading!.?
Thanks man. Good video. Funny note, I trained to become a mechanic with the USAF back in ‘09. I’ve been calling them grease CERTS for 14 damn years and nobody ever corrected me. Lol.
Could I just fill in from tank? Since I have both axels drawing from tank
It's a 11/16 on mine
Can you do a video of replacing the idler arm spring? I can’t figure out where it’s attached to the mower body.
Hey thanks for the video, is that a 48" deck ? do you have enough to run trim pass with it ?
Thanks for the vid. I just did my 2018 ex mark radius and couldn't actually use the adapter to screw it into either transaxle. So I just sat there holding the tube in about half an inch in the transactional plug opening and filled with fluid. Filled all the way up to the top. Topped off the reservoir... so the pump was helpful at least to get it up into the hole. One would think that they could make a adapter that basically looks like the plug that you take out of the transactional. Just add the nipple to the center that way the sideways chunky part of the adapter doesn't get in the way.
