I’d like to have decals made it make it look original but I can’t find anyone that makes them and the ones on here aren’t clear enough to have remade by someone. Surprisingly, there aren’t any videos of people refurbishing them on here that I’ve found.

  • @TF856

    Quite a few modern tractors still using electric clutches. That is called an independent PTO. Those are nice but I prefer the two-stage clutches. That's what I grew up on and they are fantastic for me. The other type is the direct transmission driven PTOs like a lot of the early tractors had. They start and stop the OTO as you start and stop the transmission. Many PTO powered attachments work better if they are engaged or disengaged independently from the transmission so they can keep running whenever you push on the clutch. Be very careful if you ever drive an old tractor that has a transmission driven PTO because when you're mowing with the bush hog you cannot stop very fast unless you take the PTO or transmission out of gear before you push on the brake. The inertia of the bush hog will keep pushing the tractor forward until it gradually slows down and stops. I love two-stage glitches because it's the best of both worlds. It works just like an independent PTO when you want it to. You can engage the transmission and the PTO at the same time give it a little throttle it up on the clutch and go. And if you need to start the PTO attachment first just let halfway up on the clutch and the PTO goes and then let the rest of the way up and the transmission is engaged. This works really well for rototilling and bush hogging and running a hay baler and many other attachments. You don't have to double clutch to get both things going. Otherwise with the transmission powered PTO you have to engage the PTO with the transmission in neutral and let the clutch up and get the PTO going and then quickly push the clutch back down and put the transmission in gear and let it back up to go otherwise in some situations if you try to start the PTO and the transmission at the same time you'll kill the engine. Likewise if you're trying to mow every time you have to use the clutch to change directions the mower slows down and when you let the clutch back up you have to wait for that to pick up speed again. So again with two-stage clutch all you have to do is push it halfway down to change gears or direction while the PTO keeps going full speed.

  • @TF856
    @TF856 9 місяців тому

    It sounds like you're not used to driving a clutch tractor or anything with a clutch. For people that are used to clutches, they often prefer them over automatics or hydrostatics. I grew up driving lots of clutch trucks, tractors, cars, etc. I feel a lot more comfortable feathering a clutch instead of a hydrostatic control lever. But that Bolens looks like a nice trctor. Oh my gosh, you have a rollover scraper. I love those! My dad had a 7 ft wide one on his Massey Ferguson that I used growing up. His look like it was made back in the forties and they were built a lot better than they are now.

    I like the Commercial mower you have there. The chrome handles and braces and the engine cowlings definitely say 1980s to 1990s. It also has steel wheels. The new ones (mine happens to be a 2021) has NeXite wheels (the same stuff that Honda uses as the deck material on the HRX series) hydrostatic transaxle and does look similar to yours. I grew up with an HR214SX and it's a fantastic machine as well. My parents bought it in Spring of 1985, two months before I was born in June and it mowed the hills of our property out in the country. I learned to mow with that mower and used it up to the age of 18 when the carburetor became too expensive to repair. Five years later I pulled it out, cleaned the carb and it ran for another two to three seasons and then I sold it for scrap. I've had Honda HRA214SX mowers, another HR214SX that I bought used for $25, used for a few years and now I want to repair it and sell it since now I own an HRX217HYC and the commercial HRC2163HXC I mentioned earlier. The HR214 was a quiet machine, probably due to the cast aluminum deck and I know of someone in my town that owns an aluminum deck HRC215 as well.

      Pricing often varies quite a bit depending on location. In my area at least in the PNW, GT's are not nearly as popular as other places in the mid west and east coast and therefore often command much higher pricing. If you can find some other listings around your area or state, that would help to compare. Off the cuff and assuming it's in 'good' condition, I'd say that price is definitely in the ballpark considering what comes with it. Good luck!
