I woke my 126 from its hibernation and went for a ride.

The past few days, I have been raking the gravel out of the yard and flower beds that was plowed in over the winter. I used my 1450 to push it off to the other side of the driveway for now. I may spread it over the weekend if it is nice.

Strange to see GA get more snow than southern NY.. But you can have it LOL :biggrin2:

I've given up on any snow this season in south east Pennsylvania. So, removed the chains, rear weights and snow plow with frame. To celebrate, I went for a ride as my 1864 had not been started since Thanksgiving. A little choke, a few seconds cranking and it started.

Yesterday I took the 1863 to the car wash and blasted last years crap off of it. When I got home I removed the filter cover, filter, and washed out the prefilter in soapy water. I put the plastic housing cover in an old kitty litter pan and cleaned it up. Today with everything dry I oiled the prefilter and put it all back together, well all except the knob for the filter cover. I looked all over the garage and finely went and walk over the yard where I threw the water out of the litter pan. I found it after 10 or 15 minutes. Nobody can out do me on foolish ways to loose things.

New (to me) 1811
 

Bought My 1st CC yesterday, a Hydro 1811 not sure on the year (Date code is E198G ) Came with mower deck (unattached) and a push blade (Read Snow plow) attached.
Todays chores included removing the blade attaching thw mower and then getting the lawn cut.

There are a few items that need some attention,
Mower deck mounting bracket has had 1 of the front mounting arms cut off (Ill make a new 1 and get that fixed) and the decals are coming off. Other than that, I ran it for just over 2 hours today and she ran like a champ. Now to find a set of disks, a plow, and a motorized tiller here in East TN

I got the 1535 out and did the first mow of the season. I was surprised it was last started the week of Halloween and it still fired right up, didn't even need a jump! I also greased everything on it.

Here's some pics of what happened. Sorry getting dark will blow off tractor tomorrow.

Pulled the head,lapped the valves on the 1450 with a delicious lime-a-rita ( reason for the poor pic?) :beerchug:

I have been fixing up the driveway. The past few weeks I was raking the gravel back onto the driveway and plowed it into piles. Thursday and Friday I began spreading it. I used the 125 to spread it, then the 126 and rake to finish. The pictures aren’t the best because it was dark last night when I finished. I still have more to do, this is only about half.
