    Been with Toro for 30 years, had my own dealership for 11 years, never have I heard of mulching blades being too short, that would be new to me

    yes, the deck should be lower in front than rear, I favor the high end of spec and set pitch at 3/8 of an inch, that way the leading edge of blade will be cutting the grass, and again thats measuring off of blade tips not deck pan, what's going on there has noting to do with pitch or level

    Wide Open Wisconsin show

    I will say in the past few years the show seems to be growing, the swap area this year was pretty impressive, it is also a very well attended show. Would be nice to see a little more presence from the manufacturers themselves there. Cat was there but booth really lacked luster and seemed to just...

    250 hours is nothing on a mower, not even remotely close, I have customers with over 5000 hours on machines that are 8 years old and still going strong. Where are you located? this year has been a relentless year as far as grass growing, not to mention we are a dying breed and difficult to find...

    Mower leaving lines advice

    I'm still betting wrong blades or sprung deck, when you get it straightened out just keep in mind when leveling, do not measure off deck pan and level only applies to side to side, for a deck to cut well you need pitch and I would favor the higher end of pitch from front to back 3/8"

    did you measure the blades to see if they are correct? how did you measure deck level? when you rotate the blades the tip should come pretty close to the one next to it, from the looks of it I would say either blades are too short, not to ask stupid question but do you have the sail of the blade...

    Helmet recall

    Does anyone have any information on a "Recall" on the Ski-doo oxygen helmet? customer of mine said they were recalling a bunch of them, was going to buy one at a dealer after I told him how much I liked mine and the dealer literally talked him out of it because of all the problems with them, he...
