Update on my Bobcat ZT2000 42 inch (Babycat) 1) Putting zip ties on the spring which keeps tension on the idler arm 2) Hydro Transmissions - expansion tanks or not
You definitely got to look those new mowers over. Sometimes the dealership don't tighten everything. I've actually had engines fall off. I hope it does good for you
Thanks Wes & Merriah. My dealer is really good & looks after me very well, but I still like to look over things😉. He investigated the Hydro's (I did too by email direct to Hydro Gear) & they are the ones with the internal expansion tank which I'm very happy about. 👍😎
Hey BSL - I emallied Hydro Gear at 6.30pm when I got home last night with all the details & they came back to me within 4 hr's. How good is that ! 💯The hydro's have the internal expansion tank. So I'm very happy about that. The units are servicable. All in all a good result & I'm relieved. Big shout out to Hydro Gear Customer Service. 👍👊💪😎
The Kawasaki motors are excellent. The hydro transaxle manufacturer has change the technoolgy. The transaxle make the zero turn sing. But it's all A-OK. 👍😎
@@TomDobyMowerRepair Yep 💯there is a groove which it sits in, but I reckon I've hit sticks etc which have dislodged the spring. Hence, just to be safe using some zip ties. But isn't it nice & shiney !!!🤣👊💪😎PS - thanks for looking out for me Tom - I really appreciate it 👊'ski
That's smart getting ahead of the curve! Its so cool when they nice and clean✔️💯👏🏽
I don't want to use it BSL. I want to keep it brand spanking new !🤣🤣🤣

You bought a mower and the engine fell off? I’ve heard it all now lol wow
@@seanslawnslol, that would certainly suck. 😊
Good luck with the new mower mate and the first mow!!
Thanks Doc. 3-4 hr's tomorrow. Should be OK. Hopefully I'll find out about the hydro's pretty soon. Cheers. 👊💪😎
Hydro's are right Doc. They have internal expansion tanks. Am very happy about that. 👊😎
So look like they made them sealed units non serviceable I guess

i looked at the parts breakdown, that spring sits in a groove which may be filled with paint or powder coating, i dont see any other parts there
