Great! I had that problem with the tractor not starting and thought it was the switch. Now, if it happens again I will move the peddle. Thank you, Ralph
I`m probably a rare one here, because i go by the book on everything i own. Could be why i don`t have nearly the issues others have i guess. I even buy the shop manuals. Still an excellent video regardless Lucas.
Thank you for making this video. You saved the Day! It's hard to believe that a little grease and exercising the forward and reverse pedals would prevent my tractor from starting. After checking battery voltage and the fuses I turned to youtube. Thanks again!
Have the bx1850 which is about 14 years old. They had problems with that not returning to center position for a while. I greased and adjusted many times before i was happy with it. Great videos.
Wow, just wow!!' Watched your video as I had the same problem even though I have greased the fitting. re-greased and problem solved. Well done, back in business
Have a 2650 and the same thing happened.....I never greased the one fitting for the pedal....thank-you. I watched videos where guys spent 2 days checking the fuses circuitry dilithium crystals and Flux capacitor and it was the pedal every time...lol
my dealer told me the BX has 1 grease fitting. and that was it. the tractor has no other grease fittings. Now the attachments and implements have a crap ton. nice video
Thanks for the video and SUPER thanks for the tip on the tractor not starting due to the position of the treadle pedal needing grease!! I definitely have this issue and it has aggravated the hell out of me. Thanks again!!!
Good tip, Lucas. Our L Series creeps but it doesn't have a grease fitting on the treadle. I've bent that HST damper before....they are $100!! Oh, and WalMart has literally been out of grease for months.
I constantly forget to grease that point. I think I've greased it exactly once in the (almost) 150 hours I've got on my BX. I always grease everything else then go about my business only to realize a few minutes later that I forgot to get that one. "No problem, I'll catch it next time. One missed greasing isn't going to hurt anything..." Then, yeah -- I forget it the next time and the whole cycle starts again lol
Well I'll be darned I found mine on an older tractor and the zerk fitting was covered up with bed liner, and I've been having issues where I let off and the tractor wants to keep going so now I know how to fix it
Good info. Really like your NA Miata. How long have you had it? I have had my 2001 NB since new and it still looks and drives as new. Cheers, Steve/OHIO
Pretty sure this is the only zerk fitting on the tractor, obviously not including the FEL or BH. Have you ever done the recommended adjustment for the home position of the pedal?
Mine came with a broken HST fan. They cost less than 15$. Took about 3 hours and I drilled the hole rather than taking everything apart. Used it 1 hour and a stick broke it…again. Second time took me an hour plus I installed the skid plate. Wise to do so. The dealer charges around 400 I was told.
help my bx2380 seat switch is bad used jumper wire on switch by front of seat didnt work , i have to bounce hard on seat to get it to work , if my weight shifts on seat it stalls, by passed connection to seat switch and same , stalls , is there a fuse i can remove to fix it ?
Shame, shame. Looks like someone hasn't been watching Paul Shorts old maintenance video he put out a few years ago. Lol Also, don't forget to turn the knobs for both mower lift and the one that controls speed of rear pto lift arms. Paulsaid they'll freeze up as well. As a matter of fact, I am going to do my now.
If you have a BX and you don't know what and how to grease it you need to sell it it now. It is not a lawn mower that you put gas in as needed. It is a machine to be respected and maintained.
Thanks for taking the time to create these videos. I actually have been greasing this fitting as part of the schedule, but my neighbor had no idea. I refer him to your channel! Keep up the good work 👍
