Finally broke some ground!

Post by Mikeym70 » Sat Jul 18, 2015 4:48 pm

Well, after 4 months of tinkering with this thing, I finally broke ground with it. I'll try to post a video of it. I will say, it's gratifying using a machine after working on it for such a period of time.

Couple questions though, I don't seem to have good down pressure on blade with direct downward force, but the tilt has good down pressure. (Tilt feature will lift machine, but General up/down won't) I'm thinking the spool in the valve has a bad o-ring for the up/down spool. Thoughts?

My steering seemed to fade away after about 2 hours run time. I'm thinking adjustment necessary due to break in period of new clutch lining(lined old brakes with material from McMaster Carr) is this normal this early in the stages of use?
