    Replace PTO safety wire

    Hi, i caught the safety wire for my TC33DA rear PTO on something years ago and had it taped together, which was working fine. Now for some reason i have to jiggle the wire in order to start the tractor, which makes it a two person job. I've narrowed the problem to the connector on the end of...

    a couple of garden questions

    Hi, I'm in the process of fencing in my vegetable garden after having it decimated by a family of deer last year. My first question is; is 7.5' tall enough for a fence to keep deer out? I'm having a local fencer put the posts in and he insists that that is more than enough. I'm planning on...

    Model L idle question

    Hi, I have a '59 Model L that I just got running and it idles very "meakly". It doesn't stall or anything like that, it just putts along. Without the benefit of a tach, how does one know if it is idleing correctly? I still haven't figured out the govenor yet, or if the carb is adjusted...

    Rear Blade  Rhino 350 Rear Blade

    Hey, I was wondering if anyone who has one of these can tell me what type of pin is used to lock the blade in tilt position. I'm missing the pin. The diagram in the manual is useless. Thanks . Rick

    My dog faught a raccoon

    Last Friday my dog got into a tussle with a raccoon and now she might be in serious trouble. Her rabies shot was two weeks overdue so she is considered an unvaccinated animal . The fight occurred during the day, which also seems bad but, the raccoon was sleeping in a 30 yard can on my...

    Teamwork or Play-date

    A friend of mine heard I was spreading some stone and stopped by to help. My wife thinks it was some sort of big boy tractor play date . Complete overkill for amount of work to be done but sure was fun. I'm the one in the foreground with the silly grin. Rick

    Forgot to turn tractor off!

    After spending a few hours on my machine today spreading stone I parked it in the barn to let it cool down for a few minutes. To make a long story short, I took that time to do some touch-up raking, then I rushed off to work without shutting it off . It was at low idle for about 9 hours in 50...

    TC33DA Electrical Problems

    Hi everyone, I have a TC33DA with about 7 hours on it. I let it sit for about a month (darn work ) and when I went to start it the battery was dead. I charged the battery and it started fine but now my flashers are always on. I haven't had time to figure out if it is a faulty switch,a bad...

    Tires  My tire fell off

    So i'm mowing the other day with my TC24D and my left front tire just popped off . I thought I had fallen in a sink hole or snapped my axle, but no, it was just the tire falling off. I have 27 hours on the tractor and have checked my bolts every few hours because of things i have read here...

    Deere LX4 blade question

    I just purchased a used LX4 and the baldes on it are "fixed". The only other rotary cutter i've seen up close had blades that were free swinging. Kind of like a puppets arms (bent at the elbows) if you were to hold the cutter on its end. This probably doesn't make any sense. The guy I bought...

    Anyone hook up a toothbar w/clevis pins?

    Hey all, I think I read somewhere here that the bolts on a toothbar don't do anything more than keep it from falling off. If that is the case, would clevis pins work? I don't have any that big lying around, so before I go get some has anyone else tried this? I know it's been said before, but...

    Big hole, Mulch issues?

    Will standing water rot mulch? About two weeks ago I dug out an area roughly 30' long by 25' wide by 12" deep for a playscape area for my daughter. I plan on filling the area in with mulch. The same day I dug it out it rained like heck and the hole hasn't been dry since. At one point the...

    Remove FEL to use MMM?

    Hi all! I'm anxiously awaiting delivery of my TC24D and I realize now from reading this forum that I have no clue about any of this. I'm a transplanted city boy who until recently thought self-propelled mowers were the bee's knees. I'm slowly learning about this stuff (you guys are very...
