Tractors, Mowers, Chippers, Trailers, Chainsaws, Generators, Driveway Erosion Control, ETC.

Here's how I've mowed for the past 10 years.
Built from a Honda mower. Uses a 1 wire alt to power the mobility scooter motors via battery. Uses a Dimension Engineering Sabertooth controller, setup for tank mode. R/C unit is a Futaba 3ch surface controller.
Easily climbs 30° inclines.

 

Tell us more!

 

You sound a lot calmer than I would be. F bombs heading off into the either... Good luck.

 

Not much else to tell.
Oh...it really doesn't care how tall the weeds are....cause there are no guards.

Just figured ya'll get a kick out of it.

 

Yea we’re gonna need a video of this RC mower! Pretty please!

 

SOLVED

I stumbled upon this video a few minutes ago. PTO Safety Switch was on my "tomorrow" list, mainly because I wasn't sure where the Switch was. It's kinda buried behind the lever, and I missed it.
Anyway, I saw this video and ran out and tried it and..
So tomorrow I have to put all the dashboard stuff back together. But I'll sleep better tonight . . .

Great news!

 

YouTube is great for a lot of that. I was trying to figure out some wiring earlier today and watched a couple videos it helped alot

 

I tried to upload one.
Got the size right but I can't get the format correct.
My phone's video editor will not let me save a video in a different format.

 

You can't upload videos to TacomaWorld. You must upload elsewhere and link it here.

 

Let's try a gif file...see if that works...

 

Let's get into the deep stuff gif.

 

That’s awesome!
BTW upload it onto your YouTube channel then copy and paste it here

 

No boobtube ch.

 

Mowing is great exercise ....for me.

 

I was going to say starter relay but saw you swapped it and that wasn't it. Glad you figured it out and it was something simple

 

Me too! The guy in that video's problem was really similar to mine. He said he had a backhoe on his tractor for number of years so he never used the PTO. Then when he started using it for his bush hog it didn't take very long until he had this problem. I don't know what went on in my tractors prior life before I owned it. But in the 15 months I've had it I just started using the PTO in the last couple of weeks for the Grinder. And then this problem cropped up. I did learn a good bit about where things are on the tractor and how to get that stupid Rear Bonnet off. I'm going to run the wiring for my camera display today before I put that Bonnet back on, it's gonna be easier to do it while it's still off.

 

I've always been more of a Home Depot person. No Home Depot where I moved to. My choices are Menards and Lowe's. Menards is closer so I go there but it can be really frustrating. So I find an item I need and it will say aisle 261.

 

Looks like they’re all even numbers. Possibly the odd numbers are behind you or on the backside of these aisles. Check back for more tips on how to navigate a big box store. Patience grasshopper

I also prefer HD but got a Lowe’s, Coastal and a Tractor supply. Never been inside a Menards. They don’t have them out west

 

Welp it’s Monday
