Thanks for this video. Just my story so it may help some else. I had damaged my 54 MZ Magnum blades yesterday so went to put new blades on. I was using a breaker bar with a 2-foot hollow pipe on the end and couldn't budge the damn bolt even after spraying it, I was literally moving the mower off the car ramps. Then snaped a Pittsburgh/harbor freight 15/16 wrench trying to remove the bolt. Also tried my Kobalt battery powered impact gun and my 20+ year old husky(only 260 ft lbs. torque) impact gun to no avail. I am normally not a big fan of harbor freight tools, but I ran out this morning and bought a harbor freight earthquake air impact gun (1500 ft lbs. torque model) and the bolt came off in less than a second. I only had my 6-gal porter cable compressor 150 psi and it worked great.
Nice video, a few tips for loosening super tight bolts. Use a lubricant as you show in the video, tap (don't hit it too hard) the bolt with a ball peen hammer, use an extension on your breaker bar like a pipe, finally try to tighten the bolt a bit, this can break it free. Then of course use anti-seize when you put the bolts back in. I've spent a lot of years with rusty old bolts as a pipefitter :)
best video ive seen to replace blades , simple and informative
Use a good high temp antiseize on the bolt threads will help a lot as well. Good job sir =)
take a small chain and wrap around the blade and hook to the frame on the opposite side. Its a lot easier than using a 2x4.
Thank you my man. Much appreciated
Man thanks, I'm doing my first blades today lol. Video Helped...
Thanks man!!!
Thanx for the info
we've had this about a month now and there are no complaints. czcams.com/users/postUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend some of the decals are a little crooked; i guess the decal guy was having an off day. it came on a crate and took about 30 minutes to assemble, then about another 30 to install the bagger. it works great and i cannot foresee any big problems coming up. it is a sturdy, usa built product. update: the belt-drive clutch is still grabby, but i guess that is the nature of the device. as the literature advises be very careful on slopes or uneven surfaces-it can be very tippy.
thank you .🤠😎
What was the 3/4 socket for???
glad to see you posted... Are you still doing the lawnmower repair?
Not really but when I do I'll try to make a video about it.
I used a Skag mower blade tool that I purchased years ago, and kept after I sold my Turf Tiger. It's the best $50 I ever spent. Of course, I bought mine back in 2003, so they're probably $100 now. It holds the blade solidly against the deck when removing the center bolt. It's a timesaver and will save your cussing too.
I use the ramps when scraping underneath the deck with a old credit card.
Long time no video.
Snap on breaker bar plus a cheater bar snapped socket onto the 2nd 15/16.
From the factory they are so ridiculously tight!! Wtf
Bolt lefty Lucy?
Two words: Impact Wrench
Are they reverse threaded?
No the bolts are NOT reverse threaded...
no most that ive dealt with are righty tighty lefty loosen
Impact wrench hasn’t done well for me it’s super bolted in!
When you get your new mower take the blades off and put a dab of grease or never seize on them. You will thank me later.
$99 for a battery operated impact wrench. Save you a lot of time...Time is money!
