    Rear Finish Mower  Gear box replacement- Rhino Whirlwind

    Stripped a gear on the Rhino finish mower, model WW60. It is easier to replace the whole box than rebuild it, but no one seems to recognize the WW (Whirlwind) model. Will the current production models fit? They sure look like they would. Can't remember the current model name at the moment but...

    Rotary Cutter  Adding gear oil to rotary cutter

    Figured it was time to oil and lube the cutter but when I popped the cap off the filler port on the gear box, there appears to be a small steel bead blocking it. I don't remember that being there before. What's going on? Only thing I can figure is that I over-filled it and the oil expanded and...

    I have a cover and dipstick

    I had to scrap a Yanmar tiller because the oil case was cracked. I saved some of the tines, but also the cover on the gear housing oil fill and the dipstick that goes in it. I heard they were hard to come by. If anybody needs it, I will let it go for a few bucks and actual shipping costs. The...

    Drop spreader bearings

    Thanks Sleepybozo. With my new education on babbit bearings, it's now obvious that's what I have. I think the best I could do is use the originals to make a mold and cast new bearings. But even then I would have to cut off the axle ends and weld on new ones to get back to the original diameter...

    Drop spreader bearings

    I have an old (as in "originally horse drawn") Gandy drop spreader that I use for lime and fertilizer. 15 inch modern wheels have been welded onto the original steel hub. The wheels drive the agitator bar and the material just falls through slits in the bottom of the hopper. I used it last year...

    Parting out Yanmar tiller- what's worth saving?

    Parting out a Yanmar 1300 tiller. I am removing the tines and their bolts, and I have the short PTO shaft. What else is worth salvaging? Any value in the U joint and the carriage for the depth adjustment wheels? (I don't have the wheels) This is the gear driven model. The gear housing is shot...

    What to use instead of a tiller?

    Here's the situation. Next year's food plots will be 1 acre or larger, on new ground (not worked in 40 years). We have an old JD that won't go slow enough for a rotary tiller, and a compact Yanmar that may not have the HP for even a 4 footer, if it's heavy duty. We plan to plow this fall and...

    RS1600A tiller

    Perhaps I was foolish but I bought a broken RS1600A for $325, knowing it had a major issue. But used tillers around here are at least $1000 more than that, so I figured I had little to lose. I can scrap it for maybe $100 if I have to. Anyway, the side gear case is busted. As in, two pieces. I...
