Working away today and every time I went in reverse the BX23 coughed and tried to cut out. Took a time for me to realise that the down hill slope I was on was steep enough for me to come off the seat when I went backwards up the hill.
You can't stop the BX although is scares me at times.

I am cutting a road on a hill that rises about 300 ft in about 1500 ft. About a 1:5.
The area is very rocky with rocks from pebble size to larger than a house.
The road will wind its way up, around the rocks.

Photos coming when I remember to take the camera.

The block is about 50mile from home over rough mountain roads, half of which is dirt road and I trailer the BX23 to and from each weekend that I go to do some more digging.

David,
that is the OPC switch, I am going to have them make it a lot less sensitive on my 50 hour service. I hate that thing doing that. I can simply readjust myself in the seat and it goes off. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I agree. Just moving on the seat causes it to cut off at times. But my real question is "why are there 2 switches under the seat?" /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
