dixie chopper

Dixie Chopper shuts down after 15 minutes starts right up runs about 15 minutes shuts down again have tried to figure out but can't. Please Help. Thys . Ed.

Don't know if this is a place to ask this question, but you never know till you try. Dixie Chopper model Zee 2, Kohler engine. Cutting grass, two front wheels stuck in a hole. Couldn't get out. Mower still running. Turned mower off. Used 2x4 under front frame to muscle mower most of the way out...

I just purchased a new Kawasaki FX1000V to replace a worn out Generac GTV990. The kit is supposed to be plug & play but its far from it. I was able to modify all the mechanical issues but I'm having a very hard time sorting out the wiring. The Dixie wiring plug and the new Kawasaki engine plug...

I have been selling Dixie's since 1993 and I have some 2020 machines and now have 8 of my 2021 order- just want to let you guys know Warren Evans is running the company now and has brought back his Fathers machine QUALITY without compromise.

Does anyone know anything about the quality of the DC Stand up made by Dixie (Jacobsen) in 2015?

Right after I finished mowing a couple of days ago, I filled up my tanks with 93 octane pure gasoline. After that it started bellowing white smoke. Is that a sign of water in the gas or another problem? I emptied out the tank, and refilled it with 87 octane pure gasoline as the requirement is 85...

I'm working on a friends Dixie Chopper. The only model i can see on this is x2503 quad loop. The model number tag has been washed out. It has a Kohler command pro engine 20hp, but i can't find a model number on that either. It seems the motor tag is missing. Yea, i know, all ID's are...

I'm seeing the new 2020 models are out now. Anyone bought one yet or seen any reviews? Wonder how the quality is now.

So, I went to my manual, looked up the proper part number, referenced that, and that returned the part number for an 84" belt. I ordered an 84" belt, but I can see no way that it will fit, much less fit over the back pulley edge. I have dropped the tensioner, and I see the engine has some...

Hi all ! I have a Magnum 50" , I bought new in May 2018 I had no idea Dixie was shutting down .I would have never bought it if I knew . I think I'm stuck with this bastard mower. This 50 " is a real disappointment. Yeh its FAST , but you cant use the speed as it misses grass. Any how , can...

How often do I need to adjust the valve clearance, if at all, on my mower with the Generac 27hp engine. This mower is new to me. Thanks for any response.

I got to work on Generac engine today on a DC.....IMO, it's hard to believe anybody would use those!

I was wondering if any one added a bagger system to there Dixie Chopper. I have a Z2 and need some advice

Looking for year of Dixie chopper I bought today! Silver eagle 2760, serial number 1096233, Thanks

how can the engine be moved to create slack in belt enough to remove the gearbox pulley

Hello! I have a 2004 Silver Eagle Lt5000 Dixie chopper. It runs fine, but the past 2 times out it has started using gas from only the right hand side tank. Where should I check and what should I check for? The manual has nothing about trouble shooting this issue. Thanks!

I don't know anything about Dixie Choppers. I traded my 10 year old Kubota B2320 that had problems, traded with dealership I bought Kubota from new, got a little cash and ths Dixie Chopper. Times are tough and it's the best I could do. I thought the guy I made the deal with was going to deliver...

"Joe with a Dixie that won't go" Let me start by saying I know nothing about a Dixie Chopper and never ridden one, but I just purchased a XG2703 with low hours (900) from someone who paid to have the lawn mowed with this mower. It hadn't been started in 2 years, but looked to be in good...

Blade pulley on left while seated has an issue with being pushed into the frame and pushing the upper lip down on the belt. Causes belt to come off. Have changed from the 5.25" dia to the 4.75" dia pulley to no avail. Made a bumper between deck and frame to try and solve the problem but that has...

My old Dixie has been running great but recently it's been very hard to start. Cranks for 10-15 seconds before it slowly hits and runs. Today I fixed the fuse wire going from the starter to the wiring harness that had broken causing it not to start. N now it starts again. But I have an issue...

Kohler 23 engine. Been running great. Now when you hit he key the engine tries to turn maybe 2-3 degrees but then nothing. I think I"m hearing the starter engage but it's almost like it's not fully engaging and not getting enough of the flywheel to turn it over. Since something is...

Just bought a XT 3300 with a 33 hp Generac motor. Motor makes a winding noise anytime throttle is above 25%. First I figured it would be hydraulics however when I listen closely it’s almost positive coming from the engine. Previous owner said it’s been there over 2 years and never had any...

2760hp and where is a good parts source I know its a generac

turned it off wile mowing now start wont crank. if i set the brake, move the arms to idle, and with no one in the seat, turn the key to run, and then jump the battery to the small wire on the starter it will crank and start up, but it will not start up via the key switch. i tested the key...

Any thoughts to what could be going on, mower works fine then when you turn right it surges or acts like brake is catching, hydro fluid is good , all air out of system. Any suggestions?

I recently purchased an older chain drive that is in pretty sad shape. Wiring harness is a disaster, different engine. Only identification I can locate is a number stamper in the frame under the seat "76348" that I am guessing is the VIN. Using this number (if it is the VIN), how do I find out...

Hello, I am new to the forum. I was wondering if anyone knew a alternative to the $1,150.00 White Drive pump on a 08 Dixie Chopper Silver Eagle HP SE2760. That is made by White pumps only for this model Dixie Chopper. You cannot get parts other than a seal kit for this particular pump so says...

Gleaned an awful lot of great info here that was instrumental in my new mower selection. Thanx to all the contributors who took the time to share their experiences.

I have a 2760 Dixie Chopper with a 27 Generac engine I am changing out to a 35 Kawasaki KX1000V. The oil plug back out of the Generac and it shut down with a scary clanging sound so I knew I might as well go on the hunt. The 35 Kawasaki didn't come with a muffler and I have looked high and low...

Was mowing and engine started coughing like low fuel. Engine quit, I switched tanks and tried to restart. No luck. Got off and walked around to fine oil dripping off frame. Entire oil plug fell out. I have zero compression on both cylinders. Anybody ever had this problem or heard about it? I'm...

After using for a while, an hour or so, she shuts down. She will restart, but when I disengage brake or engage blades, she shuts down again. If I wait a while she's good to go again. Help?D

Hello me again! On my 2012 had a front wheel bearing on left side fail apart. Looked up the part numbers for a 2012 SE 27/60 which calls for 900340 Bearing Kit which has 4 bearings...2 flanged outer and two inner and a spacer. The ones I removed from wheel was just 2 outer flanged bearings and a...

I'm in search of the lower 50 inch deck. I have the top plate.

I sprung a leak today and am wondering if the hose is high or low pressure. It's about 16 inches long with female fittings on both ends. Is this a dealer part or will something else work?

So last summer my mower battery would start to drain- it would get to point where if i turned the blades off and tried to turn them back on it wouldn't engage anymore and when I'd go to turn the mower on after sitting over night the battery would be completely dead. So this spring i replaced the...

I know most are easy to find as far as motor, pumps and spindles but is there any specialty items we should be worry about? Thanks

I found a used Dixie Chopper XT3300, supposed to be 2007, that was minus the engine. The price was right and I bought it. We already have a 1998 XW2500 with a 60" deck. We put a new Generac engine on last year and planned on just swapping it over. But found a supposedly good 33 hp Generac and...

I have a 2016 Classic that has done this to me 3 times now. The first time Inhad ran out of fuel, switched to the other tank, disengaged the blades and it would not restart. I went and looked at my manual but could find no help, 15 to 30 minutes elapsed and when I got back on the machine, it...

Hello ladies and gentleman, glad to be a part of the forum. I just recently purchased my new chopper last week. I should end the year with around 5 to 8 hours on the unit. It’s a 22hp Kawasaki, my question is would it be ok to let the break in oil sit in it during the winter and change it before...

After taking too long to decide what to get I bought a new BlackHawk today. I was looking at the Zee 2 and Magnum but convinced myself I needed more. I don’t but you only live once. Heck of a learning curve coming from a tractor but by the time I finished my lawn I was going fairly straight...

I'm looking at getting a new Xcaliber 66 in new 2017 any thoughts on this mower or expected cost

I have a dixie chopper xt 3200 stop pulling forward on the right side it will go in reverse fine just not for just make like a grinding noise

I have a 1989 xw2000 60 inch dixie. I was mowing when I lost steering in the left side. I assume it is the hydro pump as opposed to the wheel motor. I made that assumption due to the fact that when I move the left handle forward or reverse, nothing happens, not even the the grinding sound from...

HELLO, GOT A 60" DIXIE CHOPPER 27 HP GENERAC 2008 MODEL. THERE IS A RELAY UNDER THE SEAT THAT HAS 5 WIRES IN IT. WHAT EXACTLY DOES IT DO? IT IS HELD ON BY A SHEETMETAL SCREW WHICH ALSO GROUNDS ABOUT 5 YELLOW WIRES. MY MOWER WOULDNT RUN, HAD VERY VERY WEAK SPARK, THEN AFTER TAKING IT ALL...

I bought new 2016 Dixie Chopper 72" Silver Eagle with a Kawasaki 27hp engine. Everything ran fine last year til the fall. When finished with last job, loading machine and returned to shop. Mower would not turn over to start. Low oil alarm sounded (as usual), but would not turn over. No clicks...
