    GR2120 HST strainer not cooperating

    Long time lurker... occasional poster... Doing the 200hr maintenance on the GR. Manual seems to suggest just pulling the suction hose and sliding out the boss and strainer for cleaning. No way. That sucker is tighter than a bull's backside in fly time. Pulled the whole strainer housing but...

    BX24 & Front Weights - what a PITA

    Just pulled off the loader and hoe. Put on the tiller and front weights. Aaaarrrggghhh, what a PITA. Not the loader, hoe, and tiller. Those take a couple of minutes each. The front weights... phooey! The (bloody expensive) set: bracket, hold-down clamps, and suitcase weights, were all...

    Mowing  GR2120 + 54 inch deck + mulch kit

    Hi all, I'm at a loss coming up with a solution/compromise/fix for this. Hoping someone has figured this one out: I've got a large lawn. Mostly vertical. Over inside the deer fence, I've got veggie beds, berry patches, SWMBO's flower beds, and a boat shed/guest house with windows at grade...

    BX24 losing power/RPM

    I spent yesterday mowing 4 acres with a 42" bush hog. Everything worked as expected, except - there's a very steep short hill in the middle of things. Too steep to operate on safely, but short enough that the BX climbs straight up it relatively easily. Usually, anyway. Yesterday toward the...

    GR2120 Heads Up (trouble warning...)

    Hi gang, I've been tearing my hair (all 3 of them) out the last couple of days on this one. The GR2120 started to blow the 10A fuse ("IG/M") and shut down. It would restart, but w/that fuse out, it wouldn't stop. I found the shut-off solenoid, thankfully. Long story short: the headlamp...

    BX24 Tiller, GR2120 mower, meaning of life...

    BX24 Tiller, GR2120 riding mower, meaning of life... Hi all, I've been using the BX24 as a general-purpose machine: loader, hoe, and bush hog. I also have a Deere 425 with MMM and a hydraulic 42" tiller. The Deere mows the large yard (w/steep hill) and tills the veggie gardens. I've always...

    The BX and the pebble

    Or maybe the Princess and the Pea... I don't trust my BX 24. First time mowing the tall grass: torn drive shaft boot, broken radiator fan and shroud, fuel pump wiring ripped out. That led to a full set of Bro-tek crunch plates. And a $$$ repair bill. 2nd time mowing that same tall grass...

    [OT] Trailer Tongue Tool Box

    I haul the BX24 around on a Tuff Trailer 16' ramp trailer. I'm looking for a decent tool/junk box for the trailer tongue. There's a little less space @ the front since I have disk brakes on this thing, and the solenoid sticks back a ways. Any favorites? Experience w/ poly vs steel vs...

    Mowing  BX24 in the tall grass

    Hi all, I'm a first-timer here. I hope I didn't just miss this issue in the search tool. I have a 2-year old BX24 that I enjoy a lot. It has been trouble-free for all of its 77 hours. It doesn't get used a lot. Some irrigation trench digging, general pushing stuff around, but mostly just...
