I'm fitting a new seat on my wife's 1510D. The seat post had 2 6.0 x 1.00 hex bolts on a raised section of the base with fiber washers under the heads as if they attached something that needed to be insulated. Anybody got a clue what the something might have been?<br>

I feel like kicking mine in the a-- at least once a day. Lazy is not the word for her & attitude ...

Whtat's with women anyway? They get coddled to beat the ban then if it goes wrong it's the man's fault!

I want to get a finish deck & a post-hole digger for the Yanmar but looking around and talking to dealers makes me think that they'll be glad to take our money (ka-ching) but the price that they charge me is not the same as they'll charge Farmer Brown down the street. So how do I know that I'm truely getting my $'s worth? What makes this brand XY deck better than brand NM? Or post hole digger or rake or what-have-you.<br>

Thanks<br>

I found that the left brake on our 1510D was not operating as well as the right. Seems like some doofus ("now whoo would that be?" - my better half asks) forgot and left the brake hand lever engaged.

Anyway - the hardest part was getting the fender out of the way. After that there was a pin holding the shaft to the brake shoe eccentric and 4 bolts holding the plate in.

I popped out the brake shoes, cleaned everything up and reassembled. The whole thing took maybe a hour.

Your results may vary!

We have a Cyclone rake that we use with a Craftsman 46" Garden tractor. For Oak leaves (they fall in Florida about 3x a year) it is sensational! BUT I always use it with an old set of blades - the Florida sand will eat a set in no time flat!
