The primary design use for the compression release is to aid starting under very cold conditions by allowing the engine to easily spin up to the max. rpm possible by the starter and then snapping it shut when reaching that rpm to attempt the start. It has a secondary use as means for emergency shut down of the engine if the ignition switch fails to perform this function or in the event of a run away.

Been reading along with all the posts, real interesting!
Since cherymax did not ask if anyone here was an attorney and could answer his question (in which case he would of got no response) I guess it is like all other answers here, it may or maynot apply to your situation.
My visual of this easment is not clear. What type of setting is this in? Is it rural and mostly woods and fields or is it in a subdivision and just a lot and house in back of yours? That would make a huge difference in how well maintained this could be expected to be. Also, how long is this drive? Like a few have said before, a few loads of gravel may go along way to solving the issue.
Have you ever considered erecting a storage building or anouther garage near the end of this? Maybe it could be a dual use drive and then would be in your benifit to maintain it for yourself as well as the "idiot neighbor"
I feel for you though. Many times fighting the laws are just not worth the headaches they bring. What you really need is a change in the winter months in Ga. Nothing like a few months of winter and 2-4 feet of snow to make a guy keep his drive atleast in half way good shape.
Good luck on your issue here and sorry to hear about an unfortunate problem you have

How long would you assume it may take you to put on 175 hours? For me that amount of hours would NOT be worth $2k
to me. In my world 175 hours will end up being atleast 2 years worth or use and maybe 3. Nope for me to of bought a used tractor with that many hours it would have to be around 16k to even consider it. Just me though and not rying to tell ya what to do!
good luck

It ain't going to snow no more no more, it ain't going to snow no more, so how in the heck am I going to wash my neck, if it ain't going to snow no more. There, that takes care of the snow thing.

I'll post some pics when I'm forced to use the front blower on the 2210 this #%^&*()+ upcoming winter.

Sorry, saw the subject line and I had to check to see if it was what I thought. Huh, I was wrong. It's a good question. My last house had a black walnut tree. Man those nuts would go shooting out of the mower. It'd scare you with the racket it made. I can see why you want a way to pick them up. I'm assuming those rotary leaf sweep things aren't any good at picking up the nuts?

Up der in northern Minnesota where I used to live, ATVs were used quite a bit to move snow. But then, we all worked for a manufacturer. My Sportsman 500 did a nice job pushing a 5 ft blade. But you had to be ready to turn and shove the snow pile off to the side. Wet snow especially as the weight of the snow would overcome the weight of the ATV. You make many short passes. In dry snow, you can plow like you were in a regular county snowplow (blade angled). But the wet stuff is real trouble.

I use a utility tractor now. It's nicer since where I'm at in Iowa, I often get bad drifts between the garage and shop. ATV wouldn't be able to handle the 3-5 ft drifts I get. The tractor with loader and blade works better for me. Plus I use it to mow 3 acres in summer. Loader works great for moving stuff like dirt for the wife's flower beds. Or for clearing the garden, etc.

I have a split personality. I was not able to control which one was doing the talking and the actions. The first and the normal is the nice easy going guy that most people like and trust.

The second that I do not even know when it is there until it is too late is very verbally abusive, and some times physically. I have not ever laid a finger in her and hope that I never do. Inanimate objects (wall doors or what ever is in my hand at the time) get the brunt of my second side.

Yes I know that Valium is very addictive and possibly dangerous. But I am will to take that risk to keep my first personality at all times. I have been to all the phycs. ect. with no help.

When my second personality come out it is like I am looking in a mirror at myself but can not stop my reactions. I do not want to hurt anyone mentally or physically.

For me meds seem the only solution, I do not like it but I have to deal with it to keep my splits in check.

P.S. I have only been taking Valium for 2 weeks. I personally am very happy with the results. I have been once again become nice easy going guy that I once used to be all the time.

I've used a RFM only a couple of times. There are others here who will do a better job of speaking to that. I got my 4310 with 72" mmm a few weeks ago. I also noticed ground clearance problems. But no worse than my JD325 with 54" deck. I needed to move gravel to address 2 years of snow removal and I pulled the deck to give me the clearance I needed. It took me about 30 minutes. Now that I know what I'm doing, I could remove the deck in probably 10 to 15 minutes. This doesn't bother me since my primary use is mowing. The wheels on the deck have prevented any major issues with clearance.

1*Yes, you could plow your driveway with a combination of a 5' rear blade and front loader.
2*My only concern would be the traction the small tires would provide in a deep snowfall.
3* This could be overcome by taking a smaller bite or adding chains.
4*The issue is that adding the loader to the bx now rather than with purchase of the machine will probably mean more money.for the loader.

********************************
1*All I had on my old 1966 Bolens 2 wheel drive for snow removal was a 48" front blade that lifted and lowered manually by a lift lever. I used this for nearly 30 years to plow snow off my 250 foot 2 lane driveway
without benefit of a rear blade or front loader. A few times the snow was a foot or more deep.
I did have a set of tire chains on the rear wheels that I made out of an old set of car chains and a 12" cement filled concrete block hanging on the rear end for a little added weight. Still I would think the bx with 4 wheel drive and a FEL Ought to out perform the ole Bolens with ease.
2*The BX front and rear tires are bigger than those on the old Bolens.
3*That could be a possibility.
4*But less money than swapping the bx2200 for a b2410.

PS I still have the old Bolens- It turned 38 years old this past June.

bmeyer,

I agree. The 2210 is everything I had hoped it would be. True the true CUT's are more machines, but for what my needs are, it's more than capable. As for the snowblowing, though I haven't yet used the 2210. I prev. used a 425 with a 46" blower to do 10,500+ s.f. for 10 yrs with no problem. I can't see how the 2210 will be a problem.

I've played on a few floats and done sound engineering on others. I can't say that I've ever noticed what I was standing on except whether I had good footing or and how I got on and off. Of course these were 40' and longer transport flatbed trailers and not much to look at. I would keep in mind that you might be doing this more for yourself than for parade participants--and that's not a bad thing. Well, parade judges may be impressed and that also is a consideration. When I think of the fancy horse drawn wagons maintained by several brewers oak is what comes to mind. It's traditional for this type application for both structure and decoration.

I don't know what the deck is like now but I'd keep in mind that hay distributes its weight evenly and just lies there. People in parades may jump up and down together or all run to one side. Shock loads and stability may be an issue.

Diesels need only fuel, air and compression to run but the starter has to spin them fast enough to generate initial heat and pre-heaters should work. Starter fluid can do serious damage. Compression releases on some engines have to be closed.

I'd start with the pre-heaters and electrical in this case (battery condition and clean the terminals and engine end of the ground). Then, I'd check for good fuel flow from the tank and delivery from the injectors. Then, check the valve clearances and a compression test if necessary.
