    Today is brake/clutch day!

    As the pedal is unique, the logic is that at the beginning of the pedal stroke, the clutch is activated/disabled and then the brake. Separately everything works, but there is a jump when leaving and a certain delay in starting the brake, seeming that the functions are overlapping. When...

    Grease... to use or not to use is the question.

    After watching some videos about blocking the hitch or non-return of the tensioner pulley on several decks from different brands and even analysis of my own deck/tractor, I am in doubt regarding the placement of grease in unprotected points on the deck and in the plate sector, for example . In...

    About the steering system.

    It doesn't appear on the diagram, but shouldn't there be something helping to support the plate sector in this hole? Another doubt is how much the front wheels turn... it seems excessive to me, even hitting the drag links (LH/RH) at the end of the course. There are ears on the Spindle...

    I escaped a hydraulic chock!

    Yesterday I was testing the modified deck and everything was working normally, until I noticed a failure in acceleration, characterizing a lack of fuel. I removed the caburator and did a quick cleanup, normalizing the thing and I finished the day without problems. I returned home and this...

    Problems with the cutting deck

    After completing 50 hours of use, I did the first preventive maintenance on my Murray 18.5 HP... (change of oil, filter, grease, valve gap readjustment, blade sharpening, inspection of several other items, etc.. .). I spent some time analyzing my cutting deck, since I bought it (it's used, I'm...

    Let's talk about blade sharpening?

    I don't know the correct way to sharpen a blade, but I'll describe mine... what's yours? In fact, sharpening is not a very important item for many users, because even if the blade is not sharp, the cutter will shred the grass or any tree leaf... but the result is not satisfactory, in addition...

    I bought a grass catcher

    Well, I already said in other topics that in my country the cost of a mini lawnmower is very high, as well as spare parts or accessories and in the case of a collector it can reach almost half of the entire machine. The solution is to make one or buy a used one in good condition... and I was...

    Let's Talk About ATV Lawn Mower

    I have seen many implements for an ATV... some creative and some ready by the industry. As an advantage I see two important points (in my case)... The first is the low maintenance cost (many parts come from motorcycles) and a second use inside the farm is mobility with more safety and speed. As...

    Absence in the American market.

    I am the owner of a lawn mower that can be driven for about 3 or 4 months, which in reality has not yet cut a lint of grass, because the machine I bought used was either very badly treated or I am very demanding. The fact is that I have seen a lot of material on the subject due to the needs of...

    Help with oil plug B&S 31P777

    Hey guys! As some already know, I am repairing a Murray 42" with B&S 31P777 and one of the problems is the oil plug that came with a water valve (don't laugh). I need to know the measures of such a plug to make an appropriate one, because here it is either very expensive or it is very difficult...

    About gear box Peerles-HMST-206-565

    I always try to anticipate some problems ... I am seeing information and videos about the gearbox (mine works well), it is bathed in thick oil, but has no drain or opening for changes. It seems to have a sturdy construction and a long life forecast, but not infinite ... Is there any guidance...

    About headlights

    It may be a small detail or a big nonsense, but my tractor came without headlights (lamps). I know I will never mow grass at night, but to satisfy my granddaughter, I need to replace the lamps and wiring to the chassis connector. My battery is 12VDC ... I found nothing in manuals ... How many...

    Cutting deck problem

    Murray 42L18G60X8A When I bought this lawn mower, the platform was disassembled, with dents, some tears, broken cable and with rumbling bearings. I noticed some differences between the current platform and the one in the Murray manual (basically in the part of the brake set) I recovered all the...
