    Thank you for making this video. You saved the Day! It's hard to believe that a little grease and exercising the forward and reverse pedals would prevent my tractor from starting. After checking battery voltage and the fuses I turned to youtube. Thanks again!

    Great! I had that problem with the tractor not starting and thought it was the switch. Now, if it happens again I will move the peddle. Thank you, Ralph

    I constantly forget to grease that point. I think I've greased it exactly once in the (almost) 150 hours I've got on my BX. I always grease everything else then go about my business only to realize a few minutes later that I forgot to get that one. "No problem, I'll catch it next time. One missed greasing isn't going to hurt anything..." Then, yeah -- I forget it the next time and the whole cycle starts again lol

    Mine came with a broken HST fan. They cost less than 15$. Took about 3 hours and I drilled the hole rather than taking everything apart. Used it 1 hour and a stick broke it…again. Second time took me an hour plus I installed the skid plate. Wise to do so. The dealer charges around 400 I was told.

    If you have a BX and you don't know what and how to grease it you need to sell it it now. It is not a lawn mower that you put gas in as needed. It is a machine to be respected and maintained.
