    Losing air

    Just went to the tire guy. There is a sign in his window that says he’s off all next week for the 4th. Bad timing. Discount tire suggests tubes. Might be best option? Any downsides?

    Just did that. Definitely fine bubbles along the bead. Both tires.

    Losing air

    I have a b6200hst. Rear tires (29x12.00-15) worked fine, but were dry rotted everywhere. Finally I found a used Goodyear turf tires 29x12.50-15 to replace them. they looked newish. Had them mounted. A day or two later both were flat. Filled them back to 10psi. the rims look nice from the...

    B6200 29x12.0-15 replacement

    My rear rims have a sticker on them: 29x12.0-15. Currently that is the size tire on those rims. They are dry rotted. I'm assuming it is OK to put a 29x12.5-15 tire on that rim to replace the harder-to-find 29x12.0-15. Is that right? thank you!

    gck60-bx grass catcher to a b6200 with rc48-62h mower deck

    anyone know if the gck60-bx can be adpated to an b6200 with a 48" deck? I don't mind working on it a bit, but obviously if something won't work I don't want to risk buying the grass catcher. Anyone know? thank you! rick

    b6200hst-e newbie transmission fluid change

    thanks. I tried to activate mid PTO, rear PTO, reverse, forward, and drive a bit. will see how it goes. right now the level is the top of the flat portion of the dip stick, which is above the line, but I don't know if that's way high. if it doesn't drop down, I'll drain some more.

    b6200hst-e newbie transmission fluid change

    a report on the transmission change, with a question: I got it done. The good news: fluid was clean, as were the 2 strainers. But here is something baffling: By the book, it takes 14.3 qts = a bit over 3 1/2 gallons. Only perhaps 2 3/4 gallons came out. Then, when I was refilling, I put in a 2.5...

    b6200hst-e newbie transmission fluid change

    first time doing this. I've searched all over trying to find a thorough write up, but haven't found one. So a couple of questions before I try it tomorrow: 1. Are there 3 places to drain the fluid: under the mid PTO, and each side of the rear axles? Those have a dab of orange paint on them...

    leaf/grass pick up b6200

    My wife informed me that she'd like all of the grass and leaves picked up so she can use it in her compost pile. Any ideas on grass/leaf pick up for an older b6200 that won't break the bank.? I don't mind trying to build something but I figure this group has some ideas. thank you.

    newbie fuel question

    we moved my dad into assisted living, and closed up his estate. the good news: he had a massive shop. and I ended up with it (and I already had one). The bad news: no way the tractor gets in the garage for a bit. I'll do the transmission UDT fluid change later (and most likely pull the deck :)...

    newbie b6200 hst hydraulic lift question

    i'm new to this b6200. hst 2 wd. this site has been so great. I've only owned it a month or so, and never used the 3 pt hitch. I've mostly used the mower deck to cut the lawn. So, the only function for the hydraulic lift that I've used is to raise and lower the mowing deck. I just welded a...

    newbie fuel question

    definitely worth considering next time. our driveway is gravel - no fun kneeling to pull those pins, and not easy to roll the deck out in the gravel, either. And it was 95 degrees. But that might be the way to go in the future.
