Hi folks,
I have a 5' Farmline DX rotary mower that I am needing some parts for. After 23 hours of heavy mowing I broke the shear pin. Easy enough fix, or so I thought, but here is my problem. I can find no reference to this cutter on line to reference for OEM parts. When I asked my dealer who sold it to me they say its should be replaced with a grade 2 shear bolt as thats what they built it with. Only grade I can find here in KC is grade 5. I am mowing some really dense stuff and really do not want to put a higher grade on it....I would rather fix the bolt every 20 hours or so as opposed to an expensive tractor fix. Does anyone have any experience with the 5' Farmline DX that could give some advice? Using it with a LS G3038H.
Thanks a bunch!
Gregg
