Once you have dropped the deck off take off the black belt cover secured with 3-4 self tapping screws. Prob find the cutter belt broken, there are two types, one for normal deck and one for mulching deck and also depending on the deck size,about £55. It goes round 6 pulleys in a strange way so have a look in the handbook or on Ytube to see the right direction. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app -

Found this on Gumtree was looking for something to use to move the wood chipper and logs about https://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/colins-teleshift-430-telehandler-forklift-loader-dumper-4wd-diesel/1217429087 Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

I use a variety of mowers on 7 sites, no experience of Husqvarna but there are isotherm on here that have. I use and X320 with a 48"" mulching deck on a blagged estate takes about 8 man hrs cross cut it all about 2 tanks if petrol. Serviced every winter, no failures so far except new blades. If you did buy one get a "idiot knob" for the steering wheel to make going round the trees easier. Other make I like is an ISEKI sxg19 with a high lift back but that's cut and collect.

I usually yes Mole Valley Oil £13 for 5 litres but ran short and popped into Screwfix £3.99 per litre, thing is it used to be thick oil. They have changed supplier or recipie and it is now a lot thinner, still works OK, anti fling, lasts the same time to a tank of fuel. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

I treated myself to a Husky 236 smallest rear handle they do for snedding and sitting next to the chipper. A real Husky for only £123 from FR Jones. Needed to give my 254xp a rest as neither of us are getting any younger! So far 2 months in not even had to sharpen the chain, taken down 14 silver birch for fence rails and a load of logs for the fire. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

The taller the better, Roe can jump "at least 6ft" or will try and get themselves caught up in it. Will post some pics later we had 1500 metres installed wrong height, spent days rounding up deer 3 at a time who jumped over, ended up shooting them in the end when they got caught in the fence sadly.

Slightly off topic, having run diesels for the last 20 years I have a hankering to buy a petrol engined something... you got a good feeling when changing the plugs and points, started, ran and responded so much better afterwards. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

I go past a garage in Turners Hill Sussex 3 times a week now Ssayoung Dealer formerly Saab. Intrested in a double xab with back, sort of like a Nissan Pathfinder, nice shade of mauve....trouble is they keep moving the stock round the front almost every day. Saw lickup in red and anotger in brown, better with some sort back on. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

I had a 125 twin Benly so not one of those, I had a CB72 250cc with drum front brake but was twin shoe with an adjustable chrome bar between top splines also 250cc engines had chrome3 camshaft covers. Later 250cc had disk brake. This is later still because of the badge on the forks, thought it was a CB or CG125 but they were only single cylinders. Bikes I wish I had owned were the CB750K2 and the CB500 dohc automatic, did ride them but only mechanic MOT test drives. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

So tell me all this trailer stuff is interesting (once again) As I passed my test in 1968 do I still need the man with the red flag to walk in front of me? According to SWMBO I do. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

On one Estate the owner loves duck oil, even sprayed the quad bike seat and plastics to stop them going rusty. Made my life interesting! Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

You might want to Google Infra red, A Farmer also had a problem getting connected so he set up an infra red system. Was so successful he ended up setting up a company to market it to rural customers, fast too. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app
