Yes you are a genius by using a tywrap ❤😂😢😮😅😊

Excellent tutorial video👍

Thanks for the tip, I have the same setup and my guard fit just fine.

Amazing thanks for the video

That reminds me of one of the tricks we used to play on the new guys. Go get me the chain stretcher!😆

Thanks more medic for showing us how to cut the chains the right way they cool

Great tip with the zip tie 👍

Great job Medic I had to install the real chain my Brother had install the link as i pulled the chain with bailing Wire i did notknow the whix wheel trick

Thanks for the tip about cutting chain!!

Man, you do not see very many of these real reel mowers out there. Maybe it is for a golf course. Merry Christmas to you and family. Thanks for the video's.

I shorten my chain the exact same way , With a grinding wheel and a punch, it’s about as easy as anything else

My drive side chain popped off, I put it back on but I saw how sloppy it was and thought I'd better buy a new one as the current one appears stretched. AND then you showed me that the tension "on this particular model" was adjustable! I ran out to the mower and was lucky enough to have the model you are working on. :-) I adjusted the tension and all is well with the world. Thanks so much for taking the time to create and post this video!

Thats racing riding was the best ,it is so fast it ghosted itself!

Very good tips. Thank you.

Great video! Those spacers and pulley look clean for the Predator engine swap. May I ask what the length and ID/OD of those spacers are and the belt pulley size and where you bought them from? Thank you!!

We had are mclean mower for 25 years it sat in the Shed for years when my parents got a lawn service and mother gave it away

Great fix on that one brother 🔧

Enjoyed your video..but I noticed at the end that the clutch adjusting rod is behind the clutch belt. Shouldn't it be in front of the belt?

Well done, my friend. I used to work on golf courses and chased alot of these types of machines around for years, like the old 2 strokeJacobson greens mowers. Fixed alot of them too. Good job.👍 But a "Predator" engine?! Harbor Freight replacement, maybe? Anyway. I enjoy the vids so keep 'em coming. But take some time off for Christmas and New Years. Have MERRY and a HAPPY!! 🙏✝️🎄🎉

Wow you are so great at explaining things and making it simple to understand this is what makes great RU-vid videos and what I like to watch thank you so much for all your patience and the time you put into these videos you're teaching me a lot of stuff I didn't know about small engines I dreaded it working on them for years

Great video buddy! Quick question. I have a reel mower that has a very stretched out chain that engages the reel. You said that it will cause the reel to chatter and I believe that happened on mine. I got a whining noise and eventually, the chain popped off. What happened was it bent the connecting link outward. The chain itself didn't break, but once the connecting link bent, it just popped off. I replaced the connecting link and it cut some more before the same thing happened again. There are also a couple of seized up links in the chain. Do you think that is what caused the connecting link to bend? I've never seen that happen before!

Hi there , mine is very hard to push what could be the problem ? thank you

Do you clean the parts you take off or leave them as is

So that how adjust that chain

What is the Correct size chain

The 1st chain you cut how long is it? 44 links or 46 links?

Correct chain is#41

Personally after 30 years of welding the smell of the cutoff wheel makes me sick to my stomach, it's why I stopped welding

Do you put any lube on the Chain
