  • I try to clean, grease, and sharpen the blades on my Ferris 700Z zero turn mower every 6 weeks or so in the summer.

    Do you set the brake when you lift it?

    Why did you keep it running when spraying? Is that something you should do? Im asking because I got a John Deer ztrack stuck in a nasty mud bog. I was afraid I was going to get stuck. It's covered in mud and didn't have time to pressure wash it. So thats what I'll be doing tomorrow.

    I can never keep grass from getting jammed under those pulley guards you took off. So I run with out them.

      Whoa!! Be careful friend. My oldest daughter mows most of the yard for me, so I can’t do that. Even though they disengage when I get off the seat, that’s asking for trouble. It is a pain but it’s not that bad. Good luck!! Thanks for watching

      After everytime you mow before you load onto trailer or back into the garage, whatever your case may be.
      Blow the mower off with a leaf blower before putting away. I just recently took them off my ZTXL just to air close it all out and then put them back on. But mainly I'll lower the deck to it's lowest setting and then use my backpack blower to blow it off before loading it back onto the trailer. Should help ya

      Drill a hole in the corners of the pulley guard and blast some compressed air in there after every mow.

      Other than a file, how else would you sharpen them? If there’s a better way, please let me know. Thanks

    I’ve got that mower 👍 I’ve never taken the blade off to sharpen lol I would just drive it on the ramps of my dump trailer and go at em underneath . Sold the dump trailer now I have to get em off . So it’s just the bottom bolts on the blade that come off ? How do you keep the blades from turning when your trying to wrench em off ?

    • @4AcresandaFarmhouse
      @4AcresandaFarmhouse  Рік тому +1

      I use an impact and they buzz right off. If you’re having a problem, jam a block of wood in there or just put on a glove and go for it. They spin the same way as the bolt so they won’t back out. They’re really not in there that tight. Good luck. Thanks for watching.
