Good evening fellow board members,
I have an issue with my LA115 and snow
chains. The chains I was given were
purchased when I bought the tractor and
would have been on the tractor last
march but they mounted the mower
instead of the snow blower and
chains-
(which I specifically asked them to install
at the time of purchase last March due to a
snow storm in the forecast and why we are
discussing and debating this now)
Anyway I wanted to install the chains today
so I could haul firewood up to the firewood
processor and I cleaned off the tractor and
laid the chains down in front of the tarp I
was using to work on.
I started installing them and after I had the first
tire hooked on the inside at the last link I started
to hook the long connector hook and found that
the chains were too long apparently they dont
make chains for this tire size by looking at the
tirechains.com list for garden tractors.
SO I am looking at buying parts and and the
breaking and mending tools from tirechains.com
versus simply using bolt cutters and connecting
links. My question is what have the LA115 owners done
if they use thier mules for snow removal?
I can use the older V Bar chains I have as I will have
the mending and breaking tols and spares if I do this and would
prefer to this as I would like more traction even with the
weight box and my driveway is old asphault so scraping it
is a non issue.
I have ladder snow chains for my trucks so the purchase of the tooling
and spare parts will not go to waste for sure.
I wish this was yet not a reason to be dissapointed with this dealer but.........
Thanks much folks and happy holidays to you all.
