Have a Raptor SD 60" with Kaw engine.
I thought about buying a mower jack for deck cleaning and blade sharpening, but it's a little bulky and hard for me to store.
Instead, I bought a very tiny, inexpensive 1.5 ton chain hoist, which would effortlessly lift the entire mower if I got carried away.
My question is, how high, or what angle can I lift the front end before bad things happen with the oil and gas?
Common sense tells me if I lift it near 45°, I should let it sit a few minutes until the oil flows back into the crank case.
Has anyone found the threshold that I should not cross?
Many thanks,,,
