When the deck belt is disengaged it rubs the inside of the spendal guards. The guards also serve to keep the belt from falling off the pullys when the blades are disengaged. Nothing to be concerned about.
Good tips. I also immediately noticed the tie strap around the fuel tank deal…wth?? Tie straps get brittle over time especially in a hot area like that. I don’t like the speed switch for transmission…my old Craftsman had a throttle lever much better. Engaging the clutch/brake to change speed…that engineer needs to be fired. The electronic reverse module…I see future problems there. If it breaks you can’t reverse. Thanks Bro 👍🏼
the belt rubs slightly on the guides around the crank pulley....I have the same tractor and on my second season with it and the belt still looks brand new....you should be fine.
there is enough room for 2 washers on each arm that connects to the mower deck, one on the inside, then one on the out side and you still have room to place in the locking pins, in the video i did one washer on each arm, since then i have done 2 washers on each arm and it really stiffened up, i have to make a new video.
I just bought the same mower! I love it!
$1000 used one season and free delivery! Thanks and I subscribed as well my man!
I like the way you think. Good upgrades especially raising that plug wire up. Thanks for sharing.
Add a fuel shutoff for easy winterizing.

The drain hose extension works better than the drain trough. Ebay has them as low as $12.00 shipped.
Kudos, cheers
You can get the bumper and the chute from Amazon.
thank you, i was puzzled that home depot had the chute and lowes had the bumper, you cannot get both at the same place.
You seem knowledgeable. Do you know how to adjust the pitch of the front wheels. I just bought this rider and the wheels are pitched about 20deg
Throw an aftermarket exhaust & intake filter on it!!!!
I like the way you think 👍
turn your volume up next time

Where did you put the washers? I just got my mower and it vibrates like crazy..

I've got one like it coming tomorrow and if you don't mind if like to use all your ideas you did
go right ahead
Where exactly did you put those washers at?
he put them on the rear rods that hold the mower deck up.
Exactly why did you buy this mower?
i did not, my wife got it from lowes while i was mowing the yard, nice gift to receive after you get done push mowing the whole yard.
nothing wrong with this mower...I have the same one....works great...the only "mod" I did was add a fuel shut off valve and a deck wash port.
@@PappyDan - You chose wisely.
Why wouldn't he want one, Michael Mixon?
Can you send me a picture of the driving belt diagram 🙏🙏🙏
i cannot find a diagram for the drive belt in any of the paper work that came with the mower.
Thank you. I can’t find it anywhere 🤷♂️
What do you me no side discharge?where's the clippings go?
