I look at it this way.
Every year mowers get cheaper, flimseyer and have a reduced service life.
Planned obsolessance
IT is always better to repower an old mower than spend the same money on a new one.
The caveat on that is the transmissiom.
Sealed Hydros are throw away and very few will go better than 1000 hours.

Well, blade Adapter.
So i need a blade adapter? Is that the tiny blade that the main blade goes into? If i dont need to replace the main blade why should i need to replace the blade adapter? Arent they the same size holes?
