XG3025 Recall

[Big Blue Florida]

OH roger that, I have seen simple fixes. I am just purely not trusting people throwing a blanket of BS over simple nuts & bolts.
I am most willing to see to it, whatever it is. Just don't care much for some lower levels, undertaking a ''needed correction'' at a cut rate pay scale.

Just reread what happened to member ''ehinson'' tractor. Some fool cared so little for another man's equipment. Dealer inferred it would be repaired.

This is what we are up against, call it warranty work or manufacture screw up & even someone unskilled enough to collect a tractor & he's getting paid for it.
This BS happens everyday. I just do not elect to let it go, because dead fish only get worst.

I took on this XG3025H because it is simple. Have not found it to be under powered, for what we need it to do.
Best of all, it's paid now & **** that feels great.

Much appreciate your input here ''ehinson'', the wife is from middle TN. **** shame LS sent out such a skilled individual.
At least let's hope he learned something, especially at your expense.

Thanks again

It was my dealers driver that bent my bumper, not a direct from LS guy.

Sh** happens and I know my dealer has ordered me a new bumper so it's all good.

Just wish my new garage building was here that I ordered so I could park it in.

We built a cover for ours by using the tractor to separate two refer shipping containers & then lifting the ends to level off each.
The bucket lift the metal covering & 2x6s.
The containers are 20ft long so the back hoe is turned 90 degrees to stay out of the rain.

Are you going to construct the building yourself?

I ordered a 24 X 32 garage from Metalmax Steel Buildings.

Very nice! That should be the perfect size. My garage is the same size and the wife's Jeep and the tractor fit in just fine. I would have the inside spray-foamed if at all possible.

 

[ehinson]

Yeah I have been looking over different types of insulation because I do plan on working in it year round.

Did you spray yours or have it done, and either way how much did it take?

 

[ehinson]

Here's the shim they put in.



I couldn't find any reinforcement plate that was mentioned in the letter.

My garage is stick-built. 6" fiberglass in walls, 6" in ceiling with another 6" of blown-in cellulose on top of that.

The thing about spray foam is the increased R-value per inch + it adds structurally, is quieter and seals better. There are many new types on the market.

 

[Big Blue Florida]

Spray foams can better pull a structure tighter together.

Suggest you investigate your product of choice for breathing safety.
Some foams will gas off. There have been sickness & even death from using foams in dwellings in third world countries.

Whatever you elect for your building. Be sure to know what the short & long term dispositions are.

Sometimes foam can make a building air tight, w/o any movement of external air.

Best of luck & be careful

 

[ehinson]

I'm going to go to Lowes and check out what they have foam wise.

Doofy, did you send down this freaking cold weather?

Getting single digits here at night.
