  • After sitting for over 3-months in winter storage, I'm getting the Craftsman T210 riding mower out for its first start and first lawn mow of 2024. If you aren't familiar with the T210, I purchased this mower in 2020 and this will be the fourth lawn season where I use only it to maintain my yard and the large lot at the family guest house. Now called the Craftsman T2200, this has been a great mower! Will it start in 2024?

    I sometimes wonder if the naysayers are seeking sponsorships from the manufacturers and bash on them if they don't comply. Your mower still looks new. So many tools get trashed from using them even the first time that its nice that some things can be kept looking nice. I use a battery maintainer with my camper battery and it has lasted 8 seasons so far.

    Just after you showed the first video of your T210 I bought mine. I heard from some that it would be a BIG mistake, well after almost 4 years not one thing has failed or broke. I am a firm believer in battery tenders, my original one is still going strong like yours. PS, weather here in Tennessee can be brutal in the winter...

    Wow! you have taken exceptional care of that mower. Most people don't even take half as good care of their mowers which is why they break so quickly.

    Do you have any leaks on the k46 around the forward and reverse mechanism

    I sharpened my blades today and discovered one of the spindles is bad on mine. The bearing seat has oversized and the bearing race kind of rocks around. Thankfully they make it easy to change! It might be something to remember to check when you replace your blades too, just rock the blades and see if the spindles have any play.

    Thanks so much for this! My 2023 T2200 only has 15 hrs and a low battery reading. I used your affiliate links. I might need to start over with a fresh battery but hopefully this helps. Looking forward to your blade change vid.

    Just broke out my T2200 today🙂. Curious though - you did not cover checking the air pressure in your tires. After having my mower sit for 5 months, all four tires needed air. Is that something you just skipped? Also, no way could they jack up the price $1,000! Looking forward to your follow up video...

      I step on them to ensure there’s enough air. That’s something I always do after I add fuel. Thanks for watching and congrats on the 2200

    Do you have any vibration from the deck when mower is still and deck engaged

    • @kev-reviews
      @kev-reviews  5 місяців тому

      No. That would (most likely) be a sign of an out of balance or bent blade

      It’s an older Rubbermaid Big Maxx. I don’t think they even make this same model anymore. It’s at least 15-years old.

      Hi! These new tiny batteries don’t seem to hold up the same as the older standard size ones. If you run this exact battery, may I ask, how old is it and what is your maint routine?
