Hello all,
I've owned my little JD2210 for many years and it does a great job at what I ask it to do. It mows well and the FEL works great (although it's a little slow). A few times a year I lash the MMM to the FEL with one of those big yellow cargo straps and hoist it up and then perpendicular to the ground for blade sharpening and scraping. All has worked fairly well until yesterday when the strap slipped and I came about an inch from dumping the MMM on the concrete from about 5 feet up. I got it down in time so all is well but it got me thinking about my MMM hoisting process. I probably could do it better and safer. I like using the FEL since I can get it up in the air and get good access to the underside. Does anyone else lift their MMM in this manner? If so how do you mount it to the FEL?
Thanks,
Eric
