Yeah, especially since gas lawns mowers don't actually hurt the environment!

Ask high! You can always go down a little if need be. You could always search the net for use mowers like yours and see what others are asking to get an idea on how much to ask

They have those little smart chargers that you could connect to your battery that will trickle charge it only as necessary to keep it at a healthy charge. This is likely going to be better for the battery's health verses disconnecting it and letting it sit there, although doing that should at...

Draining the oil thru a hole in the bottom of the tranny while it's hot is obviously going to enable one to get more of the old oil out verses trying to put a line down in it to pump the fluid out. Many of the commercial mowers have a spin on oil filter that can be removed to drain the oil but...

I recently experienced what felt like failure of the Hydrostatic Transmissions on my Toro Timecutter MX 5475 zero turn radius mower. After mowing for a while and getting it all warmed up, the transmission quite pulling and I could not move the mower. My first clue that it was not a permanent...

Just installed the drain plugs on both sides this afternoon and mowed the yard, and WOW what a difference using Amsoil 20W-50 Synthetic Hydrostatic Transmission Fluid makes! The trannys are nice and quite, they are more responsive so changing the fluid definitely fixed my issue. The problem...

Yeah, this ain't rocket science you know. It's a simple hole to be drilled slowly for the purposes of easily being able to change the oil. It's them city slickers that'll be paying others to fix their equipmemt. The shards from drilling will be caught in the oil coming out and that's when...

I have the TimeCutter MX 5475 zero turn radius mower. It has sealed transmissions that are not serviceable... but they are about to be because I'm going to drill holes in the bottom so I can drain the oil out and then put a plug in. That way I can drain the oil every couple of seasons and have...

Yeah, I'm not going to disassemble the back end of the mower just to take out the transmission housing to be able to turn them upside down to drain the oil. Just thinking about how goofy it is to have to do that is irritating. The guy in the video says he found the schematics for his...

Here's an interesting video about how to Make A Sealed Unit Serviceable:

Well, I found a video on this and apparently the same company makes these Hydrostatic Transmissions and some of the newer ones do not have filters or drain plugs So, I have an electric pump for lubricants and before Long I'm going to remove the plug on top and see if I can get a hose to go all...

I was just looking under the mower and there does not appear to be any drain plugs on the bottom at all. But, there does appear to be a pug on top on each transmission Maybe the way the dealer services each tranny is to remove the plug on top and sticks a hose down in there and sucks the old...

Hey guys, On the Toro Timecutter MX 5475... is the Hydrostatic Transmission serviceable in terms of changing the tranny fluid?. The owner's manual says nothing about it so maybe it's a "sealed" system they only want the Toro dealer to work on. I know it has lubrication in there so I'd like to...

Meh, with proper maintenance probably around 20k hours to maybe 30k hours.

Yes of course... only John Deere agents have the really really good quality parts that are not made by the chinese communists

I've mowed twice now with these Dewalt goggles and they work great! They don't fog up and I'm getting NO dirt or dust in my eyes, and they are tinted to keep the bright sunshine out of your eyes when mowing. I wished I would have found these years ago!

So this particular JD bearing, how much should it cost? And ONLY John Deere agents can sell these? I find that hard to believe....

OK, so know any good lawyers willing to take on Amazon for selling fake stuff? Might be some profit in that venture. So this particular JD bearing, how much should it cost? And, where can I find a vendor selling the real McCoy?

Communist Yard Service... CYS

The JD AM127304 bearings are $19.99 on Amazon for a 4 pack... is this considered big money??? No sure bout everyone else, but $19.99 is reasonable for me. QUOTE - are you pressure washing your mower ? And as for sealed bearings, unless you buy very expensive bearings they will be lucky if they...

Thanks. Those may be a little better quality... but they aren't sealed bearings. I found them in the Sterns website at https://www.stens.com/products/mower/mower-bearings-bushings. I guess I should get the measurements from the OEM berating and then see if I can find a sealed bearing with the...

So what high end zero turn radius mower has front wheels rolling on sealed bearings?

I hear lots of zero turn radius mowers have the same crappy front wheel design, so the issue is not that my mower is a TimeCutter Besides, it's performed great for over 3 years and the seat has it's own suspension system to it's way more comfortable than most mowers out there. I would rather...

Does this truck owners group have it's forum? If so, what's the web address?

These cheap ones look like offerings from ye olde CCP, purveyors of the El Cheapo line of products!

I didn't see any of these options having a wheel that is any different than the wheel my mower currently has... which spins on a bushing and not on a sealed bearing on each side of the wheel

That's my question... WHY would they design a bushing for the wheel to turn on instead of using a sealed bearing which would last far longer Maybe they know the bushing will play out and they can sell some parts! I guess someone would have to custom build a steel wheel that has a sealed...

Maybe someone should invent sealed bearing for lawn mowers?

I'm not allergic to anything either, but I can't breath dirt that gets thrown up into the air. (some of what I'm mowing doesn't have good grass covering so lots of dirt gets thrown up and gets in my eyes) I wear one of those white k95 masks when I'm mowing so my berating is OK, I just need...

Maybe these Dewalt goggles will work if I use some of that ant-fog stuff on the inside? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0722DFWND/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

Wow, so everyone out mowing for a living has no solution for keeping dust and dirt out of their eyes? I thought surely the professionals would have something for this problem?

I'd want wheel and all so I could bolt them on and go

It would have to seal in your entire face to prevent the dirt and dust from getting into your eyes. Was hoping someone that mows for a living figured out a good way to prevent all this from getting in their eyes.

Where can you find wheels like this to buy online? I've be interested in getting some for the back of my Toro TimeCutter MX 5475

For the past 3 years I've been using my Toro TimeCutter MX 5475 and it's been performing great so far. But, one thing that irritates me is that the front wheels have to be greased fairly frequently since there are no sealed bearings. Seeing how this is a swivel wheel, it there a bolt on...

Why are these folks deleting their account???

I wear one of those white k95 masks when I'm mowing and that keep me OK for breathing... but I'm really getting tired of all the dirt and dust getting in to my eyes! I tried some goggles once that were advertised to have been vented so they wouldn't fog up, but they fogged up I guess cause it...

When all American companies are taking their manufacturing to china... one doesn't have much choice but to buy chinese made stuff. The politicians on both sides failed us by forgetting what communism is.... now we have a pres that is owned by the chinese and continually makes decisions that end...

Well, it's too bad the US didn't help China back then so they would not turn communist. It's shame cause we had the equipment and manpower right there to jump in, just like we could have saved Europe from Russia. We should have listened to General Patton!

Yeah, they keep talkin bout "we must protect democracy" as the reason for helping Ukraine. But, they don't want to help Taiwan which is also a democracy I( suppose that's a good thing cause China would destroy the US in an all out war. We would be toast with our woke military and no defense...

Yeah, something is hinky about spending all this money on Ukraine... they need to send me a few million. They'll never miss it!

You're obviously not able to understand... sorry.

That's why it's good to make reservations on where one will be spending eternity. That way, if a nuke hits, it's no biggie cause going to where Jesus is at is far better than staying here even if there were no nukes and things were really good here. No matter how we slice it, we all gonna die...

Yes, you gotta let 'em rot real good before they can be shipped back to china to be repaired or refurbished. They have to be shipped to china cause... it's work American's aren't allowed to do while slow joe is ruinnin the show YO They worried bout pollution n stuff here in the US... so they...

They can be repaired or refurbished...

That's funny thar, I don't care who'yar!

Yeah, I forgot about that... now, I hear the liberals are claiming men can get pregnant! So if you go on a date, make sure she wears protection!

Maybe the women will go on strike and refuse to put out

Well, maybe when there is rationing of electricity where they are "allowed" to have power for maybe 2 to 3 hours a day like they do in some third world countries.... maybe the people will revolt! If lived there, I'd move to a red state... at least in red states the politicians are slightly less...

When the future gets here... you'll see!
