Beware: Bought an S100 from Lowe’s May 2024. Registered it and saw it was a 2023. Fuel line and carburetor clogged after just 6 hours of use, 2 1/2 months later (I only use ethanol free gas with 1 ounce of Stabil per five gallons). Lowe’s said it’s not their problem, I should have bought the extended warranty. Local Deere dealer says Lowe’s puts gas in them to move them, then they sit for months to years on the lot. On top of that they’re telling me the warranty doesn’t cover fuel issues, so it’s almost $500 to repair. I will warn everybody I can reach to never buy a lawnmower from Lowe’s. Don’t make the same mistake I did.
They definitely made them cheaper than the older ones. The older ones actually had a metal casing around the battery to secure it. Not some cheap plastic strap. The older ones had a clear gas tank showing you the level of the gas and not some cheap plastic leveler. They also got rid of the front wheel rim grease fittings on the newer models. All these cost cutting measures while increasing the price.
Thanks so much for your video. I just arrived at a campground with my fifth wheel and could lower the tailgate to unhook. While I was able to raise the fifth wheel high enough to get the truck and camper separated…I worked for a while, with no success, before I watched your video. Like the others, five minutes and the tailgate is down and the parts are ordered. Much appreciated!
Awesome Explanation! Same issue with my Silverado 2009. Do you know what's the plastic clips part number? Lol, I found some but not sure if it is the same as your video shows.
I’m trying to find how to do the math on what i can run with mine in a power failure. Or someone with the knowledge running what? Off of the 2 extension cords
Your video was a huge time saver. There are so many components to this on the 2017 Silverado and you were so straightforward and specific it made the process a breeze. You have a new subscriber and my eternal gratitude!
Thanks for that. I had to look it up because we thought they were Great Horned Owl's, which we see the most. Our starlink has been great with less than a minute down time a day.
Veggies looking really good. What camera did you go with? Nice picture. We are supposed to be mid 90’s this week in KY. Will be spending the weekend watering.
Thanks! I ended up with the Olympus OM system TG-7. It's a tough little camera ; Waterproof to 50ft (but I wouldn't take it scuba diving) Shock proof to 7ft, crush rated to 220# (I still can't step on it:) and dust proof and will operate down to 15 degree's F. It also has a macro-mode where it can take images from 1/2 inch away, which is great for repair video's.
Looking at buying this same tractor, planning on storing it in a shipping container which has an inside width of 92". Do you think getting out the tractor door would be an issue....?
Just measured it for you. The width is 62" to the outside of the rear tires. Height to the top of cab is 91". My Garage is 8ft tall and it barely clears. Opening the door might work if the tractor was closer to one side. The tractor doors open ~ 2ft wider than the out side of the rear tires so about 86" wide with one door open,
@@astrodiver1 Not worried much about height….Container is 102” tall, it’s getting out the of the tractor once it’s in the container I’m worried about. Not sure how far past the tire the edge of the door needs to be to get out.
@@astrodiver1 I am now but who knows a few years from now. I plan to look at one in person before pulling the trigger. Thank you very much for the dimensions.
Got to look at a TYM 3015 cab tractor which is actually 2” wider than the RK37 but otherwise the same and there will be plenty of room to get out. I’ll post a video of me driving in and getting out when the tractor gets here.
I just purchased a 3000 washer a couple of weeks ago and it does a good job on my farm equipment. I had one problem with it. While I was using the washer it would shut off and and I could not turn it back on. I found that I had lights turned on in another room that was on the same circuit the washer plugged into. The washer takes a minimum and 14 amps to operate. The circuit I had it plugged into was a 120 volt/15 amp. So now I make sure I have nothing else plugged into that circuit while running the pressure washer.
Where did you get yours from? I notice it looks like the older model as the New Model on their website brings the power button in the middle? I just ordered it, need something quieter than my gas one.
so what did you recieve the same model with the button on the side or middle? i just got one yesterday and it looks identical to this.. I thought maybe this was a newer model but not sure since I cant find any videos with this specifiic model
You heard the man, he said he is lazy. Probably doesn't take care of it. 4 year and its all rusted up like that? I have a 14 year old Gas one and it looks brand new. So i guess it depends how well you take care of it?
@@ELEVOPR Exactly! I have a 4000psi gas Husqvarna bought in 2004 and still running great but I want to try electric so I bought one just like this and I'm impressed so far.
@@UWI-Anna That's good news. I just ordered my 300ps from Greenworks they had a sale of 18% off plus and additional 10% of for my Email So a total of 28% off got it for 333.33 plus tax bought it up to $362.56 free shipping included. Not bad Considering I paid $560 for my Gas Powered at Lowes 15 years ago. Thanks for the good news of how much you like it. Very much appreciated.
The more research I do on these new John Deere 100s, the more aggravated I get with how much more steel was taken away. Just realized here that the battery holder was way-significantly cheapened- it used to be a drop-in holder, and now it's just a basic tray that relies on a rubber strap. The hood holder bracket also used to be heavy duty steel- and it's been changed to plastic. The driver's station also used to be formed from a steel riser and topped with plastic control panel, but the whole thing is now plastic. Also not happy with how that hood is now snap-together plastic instead of just one big molded piece.
Bought mine from Lowes, after multiple delivery delays, I finally decided to pick it up myself. It's been a good mower ever since, but Lowes is useless in so many ways.
I can see the leak in this video, I'll never buy a everbilt! No matter how tight you fasten it. It's not only a day old yet and already leaks I tried calling costumer support and got an answering machine!
It did leak a small amount at the Teflon taped fitting at the top for a few hours. The nice thing about those type of fittings is they tend to self seal over time. Be careful not to over tighten plastic fittings they crack easily. Mine doesn't leak at all and has been running about 6 hrs a day for the past 2 years.
I remember having to sign a delivery receipt. I had about 5 minutes to look it over while the delivery people put other items back in the truck. So I think the answer is yes.
Hello. I was foing to purchase this, but then started reading some bad reviews. We have a pretty large driveway and a 15 inch surgave cleaner. I just sold our big gas harbor freight and i think i might of made a mistake. I read that you can't run it more than an hour, dont ise an extension cord, and multiple people saying it just just off and wouldn't start again and sometimes turning it off and on it will work again. Do you think i should just get another gas one if I have a large driveway? Thank you.
I don't run mine for more than 10 minutes ( give it a few minutes at "idle" then move it 15ft ect.) but they are great for cleaning the house and walkways around it and cars ect. As long as your within '150 from the house you should be fine for 4 ish years. Gas is heavier and more complicated but can be used independently, electric is simple, quiet but needs to be near a power source.
Sorry if I missed it in other comments, but I also have the tire pressure monitoring warning in addition to the airbag warning. When you restarted your vehicle, both were gone. Are they related in some crazy way?
Not that I know of. I had cleared all the codes before I replaced the SRS sensor. When I started it the tire monitor was off because I cleared the codes. Tire pressure monitors take a few minutes or miles of driving before they read again.
Great video. I'm changing my battery right now. Another fine battery placement engineered by GM on Bring Your Kid to Work Day. Even the drain holes on the battery tray are at high points based on the angle of the tray. It's full of water. Well, at least they didn't put the battery under the driver's seat. You'll probably see that on the 2026 model.
