    I own a 21386 Super Recycler. After watching this video, greasing the wheels had a huge effect on the smoothness of my mower. It’s about five years old and I guess I missed this in the owners manual which recommends you grease them every 25 hours after reviewing again . Mine were pretty rusty and I try to meticulously maintain my equipment. Applied some red and tacky grease and now they are like new.

    I also coat my entire mower blade with Fluid Film after every time I clean, sharpen, and balance it. It not only really reduces corrosion, but makes the accumulated, dried grass much easier to remove. I apply Red-N-Tacky to all the moving wheel parts using an acid brush to ensure I evening distribute the grease without using too much.

    I have quite the story about that Craftsman 3300 psi pressure washer I bought. I actually had to buy two of them because the first one had a factory defect that was causing the engine to spray fuel out the carburetor. Luckily I was able to return it and get my money back. The second one I bought didn’t have this problem and unlike the first one it had the idle down feature on it. Overall I feel like its a pretty good machine for the price and it will last as long as I take care of it.

    I have this mower and the flap broke which requires you to take off the wheels to change it on SOME revisions of the 21564 at least (or maybe it's for the new flap part that early units did not get.) For 2 seasons I mowed twice a week and did two dethatchings in which the Super Recycler was like submerged in lawn debris during cleanup and there was even less blades in the axel cover than JB had. On one of the rear wheels I did have a bit of grass on the gear that's attached to the wheel, but I greased it anyway. The bolts on my rear wheels are stuck and looks like they used loctite on them. I think I'll take another look and try to hammer them out so I can grease them too.

    for storing the machine for the winter, do you do the following: Remove the spark plug, add 30 ml (1 fl oz) of engine oil through the spark-plug hole, and pull the starter rope slowly several times to distribute oil throughout the cylinder to prevent cylinder corrosion. Marvel mystery oil would be good for this.

    Hey JB...AWESOME post! Couole comments FWIW...Really important for ppl to ensure that they have no cracks or holes in the wheel covers - this allows grass and debris to get in and clog up the gear/pinion. When i get grass really jammed in my gears, i use a folding knife to chisel out the debris as wioes just wouldn't do it...I was both impressed and disappointed with the build on that Super Recycler...the gears and axle bolts pretty sturdy...the fact no grease nipples - cheap as you said...but what would be a 'NO!' for me on buying one of these was getting a close up of the height adjusters - not up to the quality of the older model SR's or the John Deere's I just won't part with! Probably ok for light duty mowing - but with the price of those mowers - they should be built to last much longer than your standard big box steel deck mower IMHO...but, I still recommend that mower to homeowners looking for a great quality cut and decent machine...the 14SB/JX75 aren't in production so that would mean a commercial Toro/Exmark for similar durability and most ppl don't want to spend $1000's on a push mower...great maintenance video! Keep up the good work!

    • @GarageGear

    Typically you don't want to grease the interface of the inner diameter race and axle bolt/screw, you'd want something like green or blue Loctite. The reason is that you want to minimize the chance of any relative motion between the two. You always want the bearing to do the rotating. Locking agent will prevent corrosion and still allow easy removal of the bearing.

    Please do an update video showing what it looks like inside there now. That amount of grease is going to collect so much dust, dirt and debris now. There is a reason manufacturers put a certain amount of lubricant on things. Plus, the bearings are sealed. No need to coat them in grease.

Fun fact.....Toro and Briggs didn't make the debate any easier. Toro says to burn off the fuel and store empty. The Briggs manual says to fill to the top and store full to prevent moisture.

    • @campbellpaul
      @campbellpaul Рік тому +2

      In the desert, there's sometimes more loose dirt (and a lot of dust kicked up) so the grease becomes a serious dirt magnet. To counter this, I use more grease to coat the inside of the deflector cup or plate and wheel. You might think that would attract more debris (or at least trap it), but it's debris that would otherwise stick to the gears only, so the larger grains never make it to the gears, only the silt which is a lot less abrasive.
