Well I got my new Echo PAS 225 today. I really like the look of it, and I got the combo pack with the blower and trimmer. Can't wait to fire it up this afternoon. One thing to note though, is the handle is different from all the pictures I can find of the normal handle. I think I like it...

About to pull the trigger on an Echo PAS-225vpb. This is the combo with the PAS power head, blower, and trimmer. $300 Bucks from HD. I have a repair shop that I can service at, and I can do most of my service myself. I know stihl is probably the better machine, but considering it is over $430...

Hello all, I am expanding my business. I do 7 yards, but I have really been more of a neighborhood kid than an actual landscaper. I have an opportunity to bid on a job that is in the same neighborhood as all my other customers, but I figure I need to step it up. What do I need to do in terms of...

Hello, I have a small lawn are business. Right now I only have an older trimmer, a corded blower, and no edger. What do I need to get next? My trimmer is a Stihl FS 45 that runs well. I'm getting sick of the crappy blower, but I have hired labor that does that so I don't have to put up with...

Hello, So I have a very small lawn business. My max number of yards that I want is like ten, and right now I do seven. I think a backpack blower would be kind of overkill, but I would probably get the PB-265LN, or maybe a Stihl BR 200. I definitely like the hip throttle better than the...

Not sure if this is the right place or not.... Hello, I have a Stihl Fs 45 trimmer. I have a very small mowing business that I run myself. I only do about 6 yards, and each of them is so small that I probably mow only about an Acre for all the yards. My stihl has worked fine, but every once in...

Hello all, I was thinking about putting one of these on my ztr. The reason is because i would rather not spend $90 on the hour meter from toro. Have any of you used this? Experience? http://www.amazon.com/Vibration-Activated-Hour-Meter-Resolution/dp/B009PEX69O A_tank96

Hello, I have a Stijl mm 55 yard boss. I was thinking abou the bed edger, would that work f I wanted to edge sidewalks? How well would it work? Thanks, A_tank96

Hello everyone, So the last time I ran my Toro z4200 ztr It had trouble starting. It would crank and everything but it would start. I am only 95 lbs, so I had my friend push down on the seat for me to see if the seat was connecting to the safety switch under it. Once he pushed it down, the...

Hello all, I saw this deal on craigslist. I have been looking for an edger to use in my business, and I'm wondering if this would work. It's an echo PE-200 I only have about 8 very small lawns to do, and everything is kept trimmed nicely. Selling echo pe200 edger! NEED TO SELL I don't know...

Saw this not too long ago. A dixie chopper XCaliber Twin zero turn with 2 27 horse Generac engines.....For a total of 54 HP! 74 inch deck, 14 gallon fuel tank, my only question is, isn't this a little bit overboard?

A couple of things, what should I be doing to winterize by zero turn for the winter? and also, what can I do to extend the life of the hydros on the ztr. I already blow them off to keep them from overheating, but what about changing the oil? A_tank

Does anyone know if I would be able to put larger tire than what's factory installed on my zero turn? I use 18x7.5-8 tires, and I'm wondering if I got the same wheel size, if I could maybe upgrade to 19 or something.:biggrin:
