How do you clean your mower deck?
This is sort of in the same vein as a previous poster, but I am just curious
as to how and how often you guys clean your mower decks on your riding mowers. Back when I had a Snapper, I could just prop the thing up on its hind legs and spray underneath it. I can't do that with a 500lb LX266. After each mow I'm on my hands and knees spraying a jet of water underneath the deck but with all the impaction and buildup there's only so much I can get off. It usually requires about an hour of scraping, chiseling, and cussing. I've posted and have seen others post about the optional hose attachments but I've seen nobody comment on them. Whats the quickest and most efficient way to get a good cleaning underneath the deck? Come on pros, lets hear some comments on this. CNB |

How do you clean your mower deck?
That was my post last week. I pretty much have to take the deck off
every other week or so and scrape it out, too. Haven't made it up to the farm yet to swipe some slip plate from grandpa's shop. Still like the idea of the hose fittings, but apparently, no one has ever bought one! Andy Does anyone out there have one of the newer MTD Troy-Bilts with the new "flush-out-yer-deck" garden hose fittings on the mower deck? Interested in how well it works and if you'd be willing to communicate some details about it. Sounds like a good idea that I could reverse-engineer to my garden tractor. -- ***remove "spambomb" from address to reply...*** |
