    4 hole plate for plow

    How is my moldboard plow that has 4 hole flat plate suppose to attach? instead of the usual 3 hole hitch. I'd posted about this awhile back and folks tuned me into the Cat0-to-sleeve hitch adapter but that's not making sense to me. I've been scratching my head on and off about this one. I...

    full throttle or hydro fails?!

    Do folks run their hydros at full throttle all the time? I bumped into the recommendation to run full throttle all the time or else - BOOM. It was on another lawn mower forum: New mower engine speed I do run full throttle when mowing. Otherwise, I do not. I have 2 hydros in my garage. My...

    Recognize snow thrower?

    Anyone recognize this snow thrower? Haban? "HMN" stamp makes me think it is a Haban. Warning labels are clear but I cannot find any make/model stamp anywhere. I've checked manuals but found no pictures that look like this model. It came with my 127 so I assume fits narrow body from the 70s...

    getting stuck: sub/compact tractor or UTV?

    My 127 has been getting stuck in holes & rough patches, so I'm thinking of getting a 4x4 sub/compact tractor or UTV to get more ground clearance. Thoughts on these? I already have a tractor (a Ford 3000 from late 1960's) so I'm between a rock & a hard place: something with more ground...

    electric CC riding mower?! when did that happen?

    CC made an electric riding mower?! When did this happen? Just a few years ago, the idea sounded like something out of The Jetson's. Anybody seen these in stores? CC's own website lists the XT series as "out of stock" already and it's only April. Full disclosure: our push mower is a Dewalt...

    blade flew off :/

    :/ blade flew off my deck yesterday. Actually the blade was still attached to the housing. It looks like the spindle and pulley unscrewed itself from the blade housing. The bearing mount was still solid. Pics below of what I found. The blade had impaled itself 2" into the ground. Not the...

    spark plug hole in head ... moved?

    Where is the hole supposed to be for the spark plug in a K301 head? Above the exhaust valve? or in-between the exhaust & fuel valves? It appears to have moved between K301A vs K301AS. See the photo. LEFT side = new, RIGHT side = original. Notice the hole shifted towards the exhaust valve...

    won't start - bypass solenoid? or safety?

    What's a way I can bypass the solenoid or safety to test a start? or test the ignition? My 127 is back together but won't start. Lights come on, I hear the safety click, but starter generator doesn't turn. Everything worked before I took mechanicals apart. I did no electrical changes --...

    pins & needles

    Is it OK to use a non-solid core pin in the hub that connects engine to drive shaft? I bought an exact fit pin and replacement hub for my 127 -- ty Digger @ CCSpecialties -- but the pin fell through ... probably because the shaft's pin hole is a bit worn? Anyways, I picked up a few spiral...

    3 pt / sleeve hitch / drop pin / hitch reciever ?

    Hi, I'm looking at how to setup my 127 to pull / haul implements and am getting a bit overwhelmed with hookup options. So I've read threads on here and fine folks here say start with the attachments and work backwards so I have done that in this list: 1. sickle mower = drop pin receiver...

    comparing tractors, small farming

    Hi, What are folks' recommendations for tractors that work well for small farm implements? I've got about 1 dozen Cub Cadets within 2hr drive and have narrowed the list to 3 ... partially based on WAF/PAF (Wife Approval Factor / Partner Approval Factor) wants a bigger snowblower and each of...
