Will_D:
Ah Ha, another Husky 320 AWD machine :jaw:.

Mine is not so pristine as its lost a few bits :bugeye:.

However, despite the Health'n'Effin safety notices mine has to cut 50 degree banks.

As my tea tray was originally envisaged as a platform to enable the mower to be raised on the 2 post lift, I finally got round to trying it today.
Access to the mower is not as bad as I thought it would be, restricted by the four arms. It's a doddle to clean the cutting deck and touch up the blades.
(Apologies to any of the younger members who don't find any difficulty scrambling about at floor level.)

We just had to replace our ride on mower after 12 years of rusting away, as under the deck couldn't easily be cleaned and of course the wet, slightly acid grass did it's work.

 The new one comes with a pair of male hosepipe adaptors fixed in the deck so as a last action before putting it to bed you lower the deck, connect the hose, and with the blade spinning underneath gets a turbo wash. Seems to work, but come back in ten yeas and ask again !

My Husky is about 9 years old, it has one hose connector on the deck. I think i have used it about 20 times
do not do it after every cut just a couple of times a year..The deck is still good as is the machine in general.
Thinking of a baby tractor next so what is the minimum HP i should look for if i want a baby flail for the hedges?
Have been looking at pictures of those Solis i think they are called...look ok for the money, and the 50hp model
has a cab for winter use.. :scratch:

Hi All,
I have heard that using the washing connections can force waster into the blade bearings ?
10+ years ago I bought a replacement secondhand deck for my ride on in very good condition
I got the deck sand blasted and then hot zinc dipped,
Last week a blade bearing went bad! A local bearing factors supplied new bearings and an AA blade interconnecting belt
The deck is still in perfect condition corrosion wise, I wish the rest of the machine was half as good  :(
