  • In this video, I get my first mow in with the Ariens IKON XD 52. It laid some nice stripes without my Big League installed. The XD is a great machine. I am very happy with it. I put over 80 hours on it in my first season.

      Hey! Thank you. I love my XD. I recently just passed 100 hours on the time meter. To date I’ve had zero issues with my machine; not even a belt. Mows like a champ. I continue to be very happy with the purchase. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Bought at Lowe's I had to drive it up on trailer people were standing there watching me , I put this ikon right up the ramp lol any way nice video. Can't wait to really mow my yard.

      Awesome! Mine just passed 100 hours. It is running and cutting great. I’ll do a 100 hour review in the next week or so. Still love it! Nothing like the first cut. Thanks for watching! Let me know how that first mow goes…

      We just have to make it a little bit longer in the Midwest. Snow today, 80’s by the weekend. 😂 My legs were freezing when I was done; but I would have kept going if I had more to mow. Thanks for watching!

    Have you had any issues with the belts yet? I've seen videos of the hydro belt pulleys not aligned properly and causing the belt to shred. I'm in the market for this mower and don't want this to be a problem for me. Nice video.

    • @theSuburbiaDad
      @theSuburbiaDad  Před rokem

      I’ve had zero issues with anything. I haven’t even swapped a belt at 100 plus hours. I keep up on general maintenance like plugs, fuel and oil filters, and oil as needed; typically at the end of the season. I blow it off after each use. That’s about it. It’s been a great machine. I’ve not had a single issue to date. Hope this helps. Maybe I’ll do 100 hour review? I’d purchase again without hesitation. Thanks for watching and commenting!

    I replaced my rear tires with ATV tires. I highly recommend this if you have a hilly property. ( no more spinning tires )
    Also, I drilled 1/2" holes in the edges of the pulley covers. It makes deck clean up a breeze.

    • @theSuburbiaDad
      @theSuburbiaDad  Před 2 lety

      You gotta send me a link to the tires and a picture of the pulley holes and wheels!

      The Big League striper is awesome! I haven’t put it back on yet. I will, but I try to stay light in the spring. And snow in Indy is silly. The 500 is starting shortly! Thanks for watching as always!

      I just blow it off after each use and periodically spray it down with some water after that. Nothing special. I let it sun dry. Thanks for watching!

    • @theSuburbiaDad
      @theSuburbiaDad  Před rokem

      I usually like to cut at 4 to 4.5; although this Fall I’m at 3.5 and kinda liking it. I typically bring it down for winter. Thanks for watching!
