    We've had a couple dustings of snow so far, I don't put the plow on until I really need it. I pulled down three trees that were broke off by the wind but were still attached. I put out the camera because I wasn't sure how it was going to go and it was a little different. This is...

    That is a lot of stumps ! That thing does a good job too. What kind of maintenance is required on the teeth/cutters? gg

    Unfortunately it is long gone to the metal recycling dumpster at our town transfer station. I think the 346XP was one of the best 50cc saws made. gg

    I don't know what your snow loads are up in PEI but around here in NE VT only the very robust units survive the heavy wet storms or rain on top of existing dry snow. gg

    Better in your bucket than running down your leg - don't ask how I know. Since then I keep telling myself when ever I fill anything "put on both caps before you move your feet". gg

    How to measure fluid level

    Are you sure that your fluid isn't low and below the window or high and above it ? If you haven't already done it find a steep hill And check it with the front low and/or with the front high. It's very hard to tell what your looking at if the oil level isn't in the window. gg

    I you are right about the recent decline in Husqvarna quality. All of my Husky stuff is pre Chinese mfg. except for the 550XP Mark II I bought in 2023. All except the 550XP are still serving me well after many years. I still run a 359 a lot. And my 346XP lasted 14 years with heavy usage before...

    This week I have been finishing up my fall mowing with the sickle bar. Yesterday I up-turned a pretty good flat rock then started dragging along a mat of cuttings and leaving a furrow behind me. The mower is 24 years old and apparently I had worn a hole in the skid shoe. The rock must have hit...

    Interesting discussion here on Stihl 2 cycle oil. I've been using it for decades and never given it a thought except that it must be high quality because it is Stihl ?? Never had any problem either. I have 3 saws, a forestry brush cutter, and a weed whacker (all Husqvarna) that all use the same...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Friday I saw we were going to have a stretch of decent weather so I put the sickle bar on the L3010 to do the late season mowing, I only mow the roadsides and three small rough fields once a year - in the fall. It takes me 3 or 4 days the way I work and mounting the mower is a bit of a chore so...

    The filler plug is that reddish smudge below and behind the rear remote QD's and valve and hose. With two guys telling me I should try it then maybe I should. How tight of a connection to you need on the vac hose ?? gg

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Yes, I have thought about it. But, I have hardly enough room to get a very looong skinny funnel into the fill opening let alone a vac hook up. Also the filters are right a the bottom with 10 gallons sitting above - seems like a partial vacuum and two filters might be a reach ?? But that is just...

    I did the 1500 Hr maintenance in the M5640 today. It included changing the two hydraulic filters but not the hydraulic oil. Takes 10 gallons. I keep 3 clean buckets for this. I have an old oil drain pan that I put a shower drain fitting in and run a pvc pipe down the bank. One thing that...
