    Got to test out the standon/walk behind Exmark.

    Runs nice. Very smooth running rig. This thing must have some stellar blade speed, it just pulverizes the grass clippings.

    Hydros are smooth and powerful. I changed the oil and filter anyways.

    I like the remote controlled shute block.

    Even has head lights for night time mowing!

    I hope this works. Pretty small bolt stuck in the aluminum.

    Will try after it cools a couple hours.

    No, I just drill the small bolts and retap. Iron screws and aluminum blocks is never been easy for me.

    That galvanic corrosion is a pain.

    Sometimes I’ll do a cut across and then try a flathead to remove. Usually my last option before drilling/ tapping (if I can).

    This one was 23.5. I'm guessing mine was a 1/3 lighter.
