    Y’all made that way too hard!!! I raise mine up with the deer skinning rack and just bust the blades off. Love the Channel.

      This model of mower requires the blades to be torqued down to 65. The way that it’s designed you can’t put it on Tractor forklift or jacket up in anyway because of the way the blades are this model is different than other models. The entire deck had to come off in order to do it properly and safely, our cub cadet we jack up change the blades take them off whatever no problem. This one has to be done differently.

      If that’s true, then they won’t sell many, way to difficult for a job that requires doing often. Would be a very poor design

    Frankie is such a big help out there and so beautiful!! I will give a couple hints on those mowers, blades are normally marked"grass side" and only undo the rear pulley of the belt and leave belt on deck no need to take off all the covers on the deck for pullies!! You should be able to change blades in 5-10 minutes
    LOVE# watching Frankie helping and working with you both!!!

    Next time you have to get that deck spring in place get a piece of small diameter rope like Paracord and easy to pull and attach the toro deck spring. Have a good one!

    I don't make UA-cam videos so it doesn't take me that much labor and time for something as simple as changing lawnmower blades 😅
    But it is worth watching Mike and Frankie doing things together , very special 👍

  • @RSB1726
    @RSB1726 Місяць тому

    Put the grapple on the tractor and use a couple of slings and pick it on up. You can get to the blades without taking the deck off. The use of a impact makes easy work of it.

    • @3MISSISSIPPI
      @3MISSISSIPPI  Місяць тому

      Actually, you can’t. We can do that just fine with our other riding lawnmower and that is how we work on it by jacking it up. This one is a brand new model and the way that it’s built you can’t just hoist it or jack it up I explained it in detail in another comment.

  • @ronniebrue7875
    @ronniebrue7875 Місяць тому

    Helpful tip. 30 minute job if you just lift the front end with a hoist or drive on ramps. So easy. No need in dropping the deck and taking off blades. Been doing it like that for 8 years on my zero turn. Lickety split.

    In this video I show In detail how to change the blades quickly and easily in a Toro timecutter riding lawnmower. The blades that were removed were from the factory. They were shot! It had the mower vibrating and making terrible noises when engaged. Now it cuts as smooth as butter and drives great!

    I use a chain hoist to lift the front of the mower, support it with jack stands and lay down and R & R the blades after sharpening them. Yes they can be sharpened, you just have to learn how to do it. Practice practice practice.

    Good job guys! Ya may have already seen and know but @Chickanic is an awesome resource for tips and tricks on anything small engine, from generators to big riders, if ya come across a difficult problem she just might have a video about it. If not, you can ask her to do one, she tries to read all her comments. Big channel, knows her stuff and quite comical through much of it.

    I used to change blades like this and then I got smarter. Used the tractor front loader to pick the whole machine up from the front. Then use an impact wrench to remove the bolts and replace them. You don;t need blocking lumber with an impact wrench. It is really fast.

    Hold the blade in a vise and sharpen with a side grinder works much better.

    Mike, do yourself and Frankie a favor and buy a tool called the JUNGLE JACK, that way you don’t have to remove the deck and belt and all that nonsense, just hook the jack under the front of the deck and cam it back, swap your blades and you’re done in about 10 minutes total

  • @robertpowell2746
    @robertpowell2746 Місяць тому +1

    Mike, if all you're doing is sharpening the blades, raise the mower with some straps on the front. Raise it up with the bucket on your tractor take the blades off sharpen and put them back on no need to remove the deck. My motto works smarter, not harder. Also sharpening your blades with a 4 1/2. Inch hand grinder with a wheel works out really nice.

    Great job you disassembled the blade carrier on your mower, but do you know for a fact that the brand new blades are perfectly balanced? Somehow I really don't think they are, and you could have sharpened the other blades and not worried about whether they're balanced perfectly or not , guys and lawn mower services have been sharpening their own lawn mower blades for many many many many many many years, I'm more than 60 years old and I remember whenever I was a kid and lawn mower people were sharpening their own blades, never seem to mess up the mower itself , but I guess it's kind of good to make sure that you got an extra set of blades where you can just change them out whenever the other blades get dull at the end of it mowing season , so good job fixing the Toro , Toro Toro as they say
