The Glidden employee I purchased the paint I used advised he was a painter for years until Arthritis slowed him down. He advised green dry wall needed a primer coat to prevent it from drinking or absorbing the paint. I haven’t been sorry or disappointed that I applied the primer coat per his...

I have always hear them referred to as Stump Jumpers or Blade Pans. Agrisupply also calls them Stump Jumpers or Blade Pans. Some people will also argue that only cheap rotary cutters have them. https://www.agrisupply.com/what-a-stump-jumper-can-do-for-you/a/2012/

I used the Glidden White Swan on top of Glidden Dry Wall primer. The paint still looks new after 27 years on the wall. I purchased the Glidden Paint from a Glidden Store and the gentleman actually talked me into applying the Glidden Primer and then coming back with the Glidden top coat. I am...

If that is a photo from your expansion tank, if mine I would pull the radiator and take it to a radiator shop and have them to clean it. That is a lot of gunk floating around in a radiator.

You have said nothing about replacing the thermostat, did you do that? Do you have a Auto Supply close by or another auto parts location that rents tools. If so rent a radiator pressure tester and test the cooling system. Dyes are not a good indicator tester for a internal leakage problem. The...

Always to remember the last thing you do, just before dismounting the tractor is to cycle the loader control lever through all positions. This will relieve all residual hydraulics pressures in the loader hydraulic system.

I like to follow the manufacturers recommendations. I also like synthetic oils in the winter time in small engines. Synthetic oil in my opinion also makes the unit easier for my old bones to start and provides better engine component protection during cold weather starts because the cold...

Good specs. The fuel shut off is great. The manufacture also recommends using 5-30 synthetic oil for all temperature ranges another plus factor. I think you have found a home use winner.

Good units. Good stand behind after the sale product locations.

Honda makes pressure washers for sale in Japan. Honda America does not offer the units for sale in the US. In the US we have Honda Powered pressure washers made by different manufacturers. https://pressurist.com/best-honda-pressure-washer/

The specs look good. I could not see the carb good enough to determine if it has a fuel shut off. I like this feature on a unit because we use the unit today and a year later we have use for it again. I turn the fuel off and let the unit run until it cuts itself off because of the lack of fuel...

It is saddening to me reading through these post knowing what I went through with my late wife and knowing what is coming. The day is coming when someone will be standing behind there car, with there hand resting on it and not know where the car is.

My current refrigerator is a 27 years old GE Profile side by side. I think of what to do, repair or replace often if something happens.

I call what people have been posting about purchases and return, typical COVID-19 disease. The late wife and I built the residence I live in alone in now in 1993. We installed an InSinkErator dishwasher. In late 1919 I loaded it up, pushed the button and water started leaking out around the...

That sounds like the standard COVID-19 price increase was added, double the price of everything.

Heated - cooled seats, Adaptive Cruise control, tilting mirrors when backing up Etc are permanent installed options paid for at purchase. There is no rental fees. If you want On Star that is a satellite telephone with an assigned telephone number and you pay monthly. I know of no one except the...

By the picture(s) you again have provide, What you did is torch the stump jumper off, leaving the heavy duty steel attachment bar that was attached to the top - back of the stump jumper. The heavy duty bar is also what contains the splined connector to the gear box shaft protruding downward thru...

The picture you posted does not support what you are saying. If you consider my rotary cutter cheap you also consider millions of others cheap. Know why the gentleman in the video cut the heads off of the bolt? He could not get the nut loose on the other end. I have helped a neighbor replace...

I don’t know what to say other than if that is your Bush Hog you posted a picture of in post#46 then your blades are attached to a part called a stump jumper, by the same pins the gentleman torched off in the video. The stump jumper, and pins are clearly visible in the photo you posted. My...

Look in the center of the round circle. You will see a nut screwed onto a threaded shaft. This shaft comes from the gear box sitting on top of the rotary cutter which is attached to the tractor by a pto shaft which contain either a shear pin or shear bolt or a slip clutch assembly. The shear pin...

That is a stump jumper your blades are attached to. Be prepared for a battle if you ever have to remove the stump jumper. I see you also have the debris chains on your unit.

Nope not the cheapest. It is a Woods Brush Bull 72 with the Stump Jumper. The stump jumper is a very-very heavy duty circular disk that the blades attach to. It prevent gear box and drive line damage when you encounter a low stump or rock and allows the mower to slide up and over the object...

Did you watch the video? I have a 6 foot Woods that the blades look like and attach like in the Bush Hog in the video. Same bolt, etc. The difference being on the Woods the access hole to loosen the nut is rectangular instead of round. I also understand the newer Woods have a different bolt...

The nut holding the blades on a Rotary Cutter or Bush Hog are usually torqued to 600-700 foot pounds. Most do not have the tools to remove the blades so they either do not sharpen or sharpen the blade mounted on the Bush Hog. This is hard to do. The blade(s) are mounted to the stump jumper and...

If in your check of the tires previously you had the tire up and off the ground when you checked and Rim Guard came out and you don't think there is windshield washer anti freeze in the tire if mine, I would jack the rear end of the tractor up, put the valve stem at the 12 O'clock position and...

Is this a Lawn Tractor or Zero Turn? I didn’t think JD made a 720 Lawn Tractor. JD lists the x720 as a zero turn. https://vanwall.com/shop/golf-pro-turf/zero-turn-mowers/john-deere-z720e-ztrak-zero-turn-mower/

Sounds like the dealer partially filled with windshield wiper fluid. You then took it to a Rim Guard Dealer. You need to be asking the selling Dealer what he put in the tires.

Good joke. I don’t have one of the tankless water heaters so mine is still referred to as a 55 gallon hot water heater.

Correct. Good post The Power Company sends a signal down line using the same technology they use to read your meter every month to signal the installed device to cut power. Most also turn the hot water heater off.

I had a friend who was a retired engineer. He built a machine in his garage to re-spoke wire spoked motor cycle and auto rims. It was quite a elaborate device. He could true spoke rims and high speed balance rims. He wasn’t cheap, but he was good.

From the photo you posted it appears the protrusion you reference has been that way for sometime. If not leaking I would leave alone and continue to monitor for future change and any is detected take action at that time. I am a believer in, "If it isn't broke, don't try to fix it".

Cut the grass at 3-3.5 inches. Throw the grass clipping back onto the mowed area or out. If you throw grass clipping in onto the uncut grass you will have windrows because you are in effect raking the grass with the mower into a wind row for baling, except you or me will be using a rake instead...

Please disconnect the alternator that you just installed If you haven’t done so or the tractor has been engulfed flames by now. Something is wrong with the alternator install that is creating a dead short.

Heated and air conditioned seats are not monthly fee items on a motor vehicle. Neither are the brakes or power steering. Of course having either repaired, air conditioner or brakes on a modern day late model car with ABS and climate control will almost give one cardiac arrest.

Just the maintenance would be a backbreaker. Moving the vehicle on a regular basis to insure tires did not flat spot, etc would be more than I would want to do each month. Plus provide a weather proof facility to prevent sun and weather damage would be costly.
