I doubt the weight of the snow pusher will make a big difference. I'd do a visual check by lowering the snow pusher to the ground to take the wight off the tires and see how they look, lift the snow pusher and take another look. If the tires are looking flat add air. I'd be sure to run close to...

I am not sure, but I think the issue is the stop bolt and jam nut. With the jam nut removed the lift arm is prevented from lifting to the highest position. I believe the forward nut and bolt sets where the lift arm lever engages the link, and the bolt on the end stops it. There are others here...

Thanks Very Much

Hi S-G-R, I'm in PEI too and have a neighbor looking for spruce trees for a hedge row at a cottage property on the north shore. Those trees look good. Would you mind sharing where your purchased them. Thank you

If it was not number 1, another thing to check is the knob by your right heel and see if who ever serviced the tractor may have closed it when transporting the tractor to prevent the deck from dropping while being transported. This knob controls how fast the 3 point hitch lowers, and locks it...

Here are some Photos of the compost and the garden after I tilled the compost in.

The Deck bracket looks like a nice upgrade. I may look into having something similar put together. The shredded leaves compost well. I dump them in a pile and turn and build the compost heap periodically over the summer. This fall 8 buckets of lasts falls leaf/grass waste went back into the...

I don't have a very steady hand so I find holding the joy stick down by the boot keeps movements small and it operates more smoothly

I used 1.4" spacers from Bro-Tek on my BX1880 with a 54' deck. They fit fine, deck fully raises and the anti scalping wheels do not touch the tires. I have turf tires. I'd say 1.5' will work given there is still clearance with the 1.4s...

I have the Cyclone Rake XL, bought it used. It had been used on a cub Cadet 54" lawn tractor so it was pretty easy to attach to the BX 1880. For me it has been great. Convenient to fold store in the shed. The 25' extension hose hangs on the back of the shed outside though. It has the 8" hose...

I experienced the same issue last year. The photo in your post looks like what I saw. The adjustment did not help. I had bent the loader stand when I took it off on uneven ground. I tried bending it back with ratchet straps without success. I resorted to drilling and tapping a hole about half...

Did the same thing about a year ago and has help up well

Just an update - Yesterday I finally installed 1.4" Bro-Tek spacers on my BX1880 with the 54" mid mount mower. A little finiky getting the wheels on the studs with deck on but they fit with a little room to spare so 1.5" might fit this configuration.

I spoke with the insurance provider. The damage is accidental damage and is covered. They sent a claim form to complete and the dealer will have to complete an estimate for the repair This will not be as painful as it first appeared it was going to be.

This makes it seem like a much more manageable repair. I spoke with another dealer about an hour away and they estimate 6 hours and their approach was the same as B737 and said they had to move the engine forward to gain access. They have never put one through KTAC, but thought it would be...

Good thought. Yes I have KTac insurance. I’ll call and ask if it is covered.

I appreciate the information. I guess the dealer was right when he said it was a 2 day job. Just hard to swallow paying $2,000 to replace a $5 part.

Thanks very much for the reply and the photos. Looks like it is beyond the equipment I have on hand to tackle the replacement. Do you have an idea how much time it might take a dealship to complete the repair?

On the weekend the tractor developed a rattle/ticking strange sound coming from below my feet. Assumed a branch must have gotten caught up when I was cleaning up brush after the hurricane and was the cause of the noise. I had to remove the mower deck to get under and see what was going on. No...

I am having the same thought about my BX1880 with the 54" MMM and turf tires. There seems to be less than 1 inch clearance. Is anyone with an BX1880 and the 54" MMM using spacers?
