While mowing the grass today the HST forward/reverse speed pedal seemed to become detached and the tractor came to a stop. The pedal can be moved back and forth but doesn't do anything or return to its centered position. Looked around where it broke down and didn't see any broken springs or...

While servicing the mower before mounting on the BX24 I noticed the front wheels were all over the place. After 8 years of mowing fairly rough 3 acres the center holes had worn out. The rear ones didn't seem too bad. Other posts pointed me to...

Impressions of a BX42 knock off if anyone is thinking about getting one. I had cut down about 150 small/medium trees, anything over 4" went to the neighbor for his wood stove. On buy versus rental, the local rental for a 6" was about $185 a day. That seemed to be the way to go except I didn't...

I am replacing the BX24 fluids at 875 hours and there is a engine valve clearance alignment required that should be done by the dealer. Before calling the dealer I was trying to decide if I could do it myself. I have the shop manual which describes the process but from the outside that area...

I have what by these forums will be a minor job but big enough for me of cutting down and disposing of small trees perhaps up to 2 1/2 inch trunks and some brush. About an acre worth on a wet somewhat rocky hillside to stop it getting out of hand. I can't (dare not) get the tractor in there but...

Stay calm just asking. I'm doing some french drain type field drainage and have got to where have filled back in about 100 foot. After driving over the trench to pack it down to fill in the voids, using the bucket to spread the leftover spoils and back drag its coming out pretty lumpy. There...

The clutch plates on my LandPride cutter are seized up and adjusting the springs doesn't free them. According to the manual I need to remove the plates to clean them up. Getting the plates off will mean removing the shaft. The shield is hiding access to the release button and I'm not having much...

I'm a bit challenged when it comes to mechanical servicing. The BX24 is due for the 300 hour service when the weather warms up a bit. Last time I passed on draining the coolant because I wasn't confident that if I got the plug off I could get it back on again. I didn't manage to get a pair of...

Having read the THS concrete floor post I thought this might be a good place to ask. I am close to retirement and set out last year to downsize a bit, buy a little low maintenance ranch or a condo. I wound up with an old farm house and a 40x30 bank barn. I would like to do something with the...

A very basic kind of question. Do mid mount mowers for sub compact tractors have a standard attachment mechanism? I see on the Woods web site a L59 finish mower which indicates they might be compatible. For a given tractor could I expect to be able to shop around for an alternative mid mount...

I will be going to look at a T273 HST in the next few days. Can anyone give me an example quote or puchase price in the New England area to set my expectations? I would be wanting it with a FEL, possibly a mid mount mower. Just starting to look, and intend to select something this month. Will...
