I do know a 570 ranger was used to pull it out 2 times though . accelerated like it was cvt but I honestly have no idea We had a Kubota once same deal ( it had turf tires) but I am thinking the shear weight was the down fall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gets used maybe 6 times a year. It cuts really fast and I only paid $500 for it. All of the bearings had been replaced just before I bought it. I set the cruise control and drink beer.

It was definitely thin but I wasn’t riding any roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There definitely wasn’t enough snow to ride the trails, had to stick to the grass areas. You can legally ride the trails near me year round, fuck the base police.

You need to remove the steering wheel and console/dash to get to it, FYI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they are about $25-30 at HD/Lowe’s/Menards. If I was smart, I would have bought a pneumatic riveter years ago but, even with that, a good hand riveter is still necessary. Here’s what I have now. After using this, I threw out my other two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are cheap and bulletproof for small lots. Running a commercial grade Toro 60" ZTR now but the Craftsman got me through until I could get something better. 1 hour ago, Zambroski said: At least get a swivel head It makes negotiating easier.

Here’s what I have now. After using this, I threw out my other two. This is the one I bought. Wish I knew about the swivel head ones. I remember trying to pull steel rivets by hand, what a pain in the ass. Convinced my dad to get an air riveter back in the day and never looked back. I bought one for myself probably 5 years ago, never even used it yet. https://www.menards.com/main/tools-hardware/hand-tools/staplers-staples-rivet-tools/stanley-reg-industrial-riveter/mr100cg/p-1444425526807-c-9164.htm?tid=1984878526887139254&ipos=24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
