sounds more like the wrong plug is installed if it's misfiring under compression...

uhmm, "Property taxe$" . . . . .

if you go new, I'd check out Oregon, their stuff lasts me 2-3 times longer.

a puller and a blowtorch, and wear gloves

Independence from WHAT? My taxes just went up 38%.....

it comes available online...

I'll have to look in my shop; but, I think the manual package had a "Tool" inside for hooking on to the idler arm and pulling to release the tension so the belt can be taken off or put on .. .. .. I'll see what I can find.........

yup, steer clear of Arby's, yikesss . . . . .

I'd have cancelled my order and turned around and left . . . . . .

Ouch - I've got about 850 on mine and (crossing my fingers) the only issue has been the PTO switch went bad, kind of expected after a while... and well, there was that morning that I kind of buried it clear up to the frame thinking I could make it through a wet area. Yikes, when I stepped off...

Curious, how many hours are on your mower ... ?

😤

has it ever been able to print and now stopped, or is this the set up phase... ?

just get one of these pop-up changing tents and use it right in the back of any pick-up ...

I still have a 1981 Case 108 with an 8 hp B&S, have been through 7 small $60 batteries in all those years. I'd never go Electric anything today.....

Go here - match up your units model & s/n try going here - https://www.ferrismowers.com/na/en_us/support/manuals/results.productmanuals.html?searchrequested=5901475 match up your Model # & S/N to the proper Operator Manual. then probably go to page 38 .....

just my opinion, but I stopped buying/using anything Black & Decker 30years ago because they just weren't worth my money anymore.

that must be some pretty solid ground under there. My backyard doesn't have quite that much standing water, but if I tried running my Ferris IS2600Z through it right now it would be sunk clear up to the fuel tanks. Don't ask me how I know or what kind of a mess it left - yikes!

Now that will be a collector someday. If we lift the hood will we find an 18 hp B&S ..... lol

Now I can't imagine how anyone could do this ;-) - - - - - exit stage right >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

ahhh come now, you wouldn't want to be known as one of those conspiracy people. Now would we ;-)

at least it's not waterlogged 60' under . . . ;-(

with today's generation it would take a real "Sherlock" to figure out what's wrong .....

what gas are you using, i.e. cheap ethanol laden crap. If so, try premium zero ethanol and see if the new pump lasts.....

At one time when I was young and naive. Now, I put myself in the shoes of most every companies CEO, i.e. give me a golden parachute and I'll jump in a heat beat. Loyalty is meant to be a two-way street . . . . .

e Your Customer Service "Normal wear" comment reminded me of a Chevy S10 I owned years ago (30 year Chevy man until this). Loved that little p/u; but, the dang thing immediately leaked oil on the garage floor. Took it in for warranty repair, which the dealer did 4 times, but it still kept...

Some years ago I ordered concrete for a yard project. I specifically told them to use my driveway because the ground was soft. Imagine my dismay when I came home and found a cement truck in the middle of my front yard "BURIED" to the door panels. The dang thing just missed breaking the gas line...

poor local cops are probably going through withdrawal . . . . . 😋

Hmmm, a lot is totally dependent on "What" your business is ??? If you're doing Lawn Mowing, I don't want anyone just hot-rodding up and down my yard as fast as they can leaving it looking like a dirt-track.

and, don't forget get to do the required 50 hours "Tires Air Change", remove the valve cores and release all the current old stagnant air, then replace with fresh 100% Pure Outside Air, you can't go wrong with that stuff..... Oh ya, I appreciate anyone who takes proper care of their equipment -...

Wow, simply wow, i.e. "but in comparison, you don't know shit"; hmmm, whatever you say, "Jack" . . . . . Merry "Christ-mas" and Happy Holidays to ALL ..... 🧑‍🎄 🎁 🤶

Be careful what's you ask for - - -

how high is the grass your cutting; and, what cutting height do you have the deck set at ...???

https://www.oregonproducts.com/en/products/lawn-and-garden/mower-blades/gator-mulching-blades/c/g6-mulchingblade-p see what matches up here...

it is my understanding that the purpose of an hour meter was to monitor hours on the engine use, not the blades turning. Duhhhh .....

never heard or experienced this in 20 years and several different units . . . . . .

Hey G-Rex, any update on your issue? Or are you just going to bite the bullet . . . . .

park it uncovered where the sun can hit it daily. I have a 1980 Case and the deck is still as solid as the day I bought it ..... . .

Pulling is not the major concern. You really have to ask, "will it stop when you need it to." ????

Have you talked to the owner of that dealership?

when you say "just got", ? ? How long ago..., did the hour meter register any hours at all; and if so, what is it showing? If your dealer gave you that bs response I'd load the thing up and take it right back to them, since you can probably expect that same kind of service on anything else.....

that's what I'm using, no issues, $4.19 per gallon. Can I come over and use your lift . . . . . ;-)

Could you clarify what is and isn't happening and when, what you've written is confusing. Also, try another PTO switch, I just had mine go out similar to yours and then the new one they gave me was bad as well. The dealer went through 3 before they got a good one. Sheezzzz

I remember more than a few blizzards; but, the blizzard of '72 had be snowbound at a job site by myself for 3 days. Fortunately, it was at a manufacturing plant, and I raided every vending machine in the place.

keep it up and they'll be raiding your fridge in the middle of the night

I'm no spring chicken anymore but still try to do most of my own maintenance. The Ferris really is as easy to do as my JD, maybe easier. The one thing that I am particular about is making sure I buy my diesel fuel from a good source and only there. I've figured the fuel consumption is about a...

I got them right at my Ferris dealer. I also have a IS2600Z that I use for the basic lawn cutting, and it rides smooth. Post a photo or two of your seat and the coil/rubber bumpers. A lot to be said about the old Spring mount tractor seats. You might bounce a bit but you didn't normally get your...

as do I (2 lower back and 1 neck surgery), and the spring change on my X585 made a world of difference on my 2+ acres. Just putting this info out there as a possible temporary remedy until the ground gets smoothed out . . .

I agree that the ground should probably be leveled; but, for what it's worth I changed out the JD OEM coils springs under the seat for a pair of Ferris and the ride is 10 times smoother. The JD coils were to dang stiff . . . .

does your seat have the adjustable coil springs on it ? If so, move them around and see if that helps a bit . . . .
