Thanks for the quick responses Tim and Terry. That is what I was thinking. Pretty reasonable price if in moderate operating condition. I have heard and read about the common motor mount issues on the QL series, but other than that they don't have any major common problems do they? Since the add does state make offer, I am guessing there is a little wiggle room. Unfortunately I am booked up until late tonight, so I'll have to see if he still has it Friday afternoon.
Are there any specific concern areas to check on the blower or the tiller? Is there any chance that the same belt can be used for more than one attachment, or do they all take different length belts? Are there different model blowers/tillers that are better or worse, or same?
Also, I currently have a 682. Would the tiller/blower bolt up to that the same on that rig? It is new enough it has the aluminum rear end, and it does have a PTO for bagger attachment.
Thanks again, and sorry for showing my greenhorn side.
