I recently purchased a used compact tractor which came with 2 rotary cutters. One is identified as a "Sunshine Line" by Modern Equipment. The other is a "KRC 42" by R.M. Wade Co. I received no owners manuals with this equipment. I am a clueless newbie and have the following questions:
What sort of lubricant goes into the gearbox? How do you know when the lubricant level is adequate? Does the lubricant need to be changed periodicaly?
I am puzzled by the driveline guards. How do you remove them? How do you replace them? Are they interchangeable?
How do you work on these dern things? Do you lift them up on blocks or jack stands and work underneath or do you flip them over and have at it that way?
One needs new blades. Any tips or tricks regarding blade R&R? The other has good blades that are very dull (think completely rounded). Are these sharpened? Will a bench grinder do the job?
Any other information you exerienced hands would like to impart?
TIA
regards,
dennis
