    GOODBYE TO ELECTRIC

    I have owned a Ryobi battery-operated Riding lawn mower since 2017. I paid $2400 new. In 2022, I replaced the batteries from 50 to 100 for $1200. I replaced the batteries myself. Two years later, my batteries are not holding a full charge again. My next purchase will be a gas engine. The...

    Ryobi RY253SS 2-cycle trimmer dies after about 10 seconds

    Trying to repair a Ryobi RY253SS 2-cycle trimmer. Starts up fine, runs for ~10 seconds and dies. It dies regardless of whether full/no-choke, full/no-throttle. Restarts right away, but exhibits same behavior (which leads me to think not an electrical issue). Here is what I've done: New 50:1...

    Ryobi Z42Li joystick too stiff

    Walked into a deal on Ryobi's electric rider. Sketchy reputation but I couldn't resist. The joystick is very stiff for an old timer with arthritis like me. Anyone have experience in loosening the mechanical linkage? Also, while I'm moaning, why is delay built into the control? Makes it quite...

    Ryobi bumphead from hell

    My first trimmer was a 725R and a great unit it was. Then a Craftsman which just died so tried Ryobi again. The unit is ok but the bump head is a hand ( and wrist)-wringing problem. Is this new design to simplify owner operation? I think most would say all is well until that first line jam...

    Good Morning, I have a RYOBI 6500 Watt generator, RY906500S / 099930624, generator seems to start and run well until I put a load on it. Then it stalls, backfires and goes into a complete freak out until I remove the load. I have used this machine for about a year with no problem. Any Ideas as...

    Ryobi 401180 40V lawnmower.

    After all our new landscaping I have now reduced the walk behind mower time from 35 minutes to around 10 minutes. So, I decided to sell my venerable old 2003 lawn boy 2 stroker and send it to a home where it will be happier. I will miss the old girl, but time to move on. So as the title...

    Replacing Ryobi Riding mower batteries with Lithium Ion Batteries

    This seems like a good idea. Any one know how well they do?

    No more electric Ryobi RM480E 38"

    Another year of needing to buy and install a bad battery. This is my third year in a row. My first set of batteries lasted 5 years before I upgraded all four, This year I decided I had enough and sold it. No more electric riding mowers for me.

    Mower deck Ryobi RYRM 8006 without the mower deck?

    Has anyone tried running the Ryobi RYRM 8006 without the mower deck attached? I rarely use it for mowing. Almost 100% for pushing, pulling and riding on.
