I expect this mower will last several seasons with decent care. kzread.infoUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend Also, I ran across the problem with it not starting the 2nd time I used it. There is a safety switch which is pushed in by the chute or mulching piece being attached to the deck. I took the cover off and it wouldn't start. Put it back on, no problem. It takes only a minute with 2 easily accessible wingnuts and no tools. This mower starts up first crank each time and it is a joy to use. It also mows in reverse by putting the key to the reverse area after starting and pushing in the triangular button. It will stay in reverse mode until you turn it off. All in all, for my homeowner needs, I really like this mower-and at 70 bucks a cut here in Miami, it's already more than 1/3 paid for itself in a month.

I had a flat on a Sunday .All the tire shops were closed. The Runnings store was open to purchase a new tire . I was able to change I easily. Thanks so much for posting this video.

I used a clamp to hold the original tire iron in place and that really made it easier to get the final rim out of the tire. Thanks for the video!

Thank you for the very to the point video. I was able to change my mower tire myself after going to about 4 tire places and being told they could not do it. A couple of Harbor Freight tire Irons also made it easier to do.

Thank you for this video. I had the tyre on within 5 minutes after struggling for 10 before I searched for a video. Very precise and too the point. I got the tyre on then I paused the video to put air in. Realised I was getting nowhere pressed play again to see you explaining how to do it. Great video and highly recommended watching all of the video before starting! Cheers

Excellent video. Never attempted this before, but with this video - got it done! I didn’t end up needing to use any lubricant. The tool set is a must though. Thanks - saved me some time and money!!

In an ideal world and new 2 ply tires it would be this easy. Having changed my share of 40 yr old 4 ply tires I can tell you it is much more difficult. But thank you for posting the video.

Your video has inspired me to do it myself again. The last time I did this for a family member, it took hours of on and off struggling. But your video, using the right tools, makes me wonder why I should pay anyone $50-75 per tire to do a 10-minute job.

It should be noted that some rims lip diameter is slightly different on both sides, usually the side of the rim with the stem will be the smaller lip, and is the side you should remove the old from, and install the new on. If you really struggling getting the tire off or on, try swapping the rim side.

Just bought my first mower; this will definitely save me money!

This really helped. Simply because I didn't have a tire iron set or a long flat head screwdriver and I was trying to get the tire out over the rim for like 2 hours... even messed around with smart straps because they're supposed to compress the center and bow out the sides over the rim.. couldn't get it to work.. Next day I watch this video and see the dude just puts extra air in the tire!!!!! Soooooo..... I put extra air in the tire and it seemed to seal itself back up! Lmao all that effort yesterday trying to do something that wasn't necessary!

Best basic video! Also fastest! Thanks

I got one changed with help, but not without mangling the rim a bit. Smacked it back to shape hopefully enough to seal. The second one I used a press just to break both beads, and now it's giving me heck while I wait for another pair of hands to get it started enough to.. mangle the other rim. I second the recommendation to take it to your local tire shop.

Thank you very much, you made it crystal clear👍🏽

Great video. I have confidence to change my tire now.

Nice tutorial. Reminds me of the days as a kid when I replaced bike tires.

Great, someone who knows what they are doing, thanks for the help , first time I changed a tire now to do the other tires /

I had a 40 year old tire I tried breaking the bead with my heels and put all 295 pounds of me on it and it didn't budge I squirted motor oil where the rubber meets the rim then gently heated the rim with a torch until the oil started smoke it came apart no problem and no damage to the tire

Flawless execution!

This helped very much, thank you!!

Great video, in a perfect world this is the way to do it but when you’re wrestling 20 year old tires hard as a rock you can’t quite flip it over the rim like you did so what I suggest using a reciprocating saw and cut the petrified tires off. Just be careful not to cut your fingers off!! Worked for me 😊

@@tuckercole1531 No doubt, but the thing about tires and valve stems is, there's only two kinds: the ones that are dry rotted and the one's in the process of dry rotting. So, if you're going to swap a cheap chinese tire, you might as well swap out the cheap chinese valve stem too. I personally never buy tires or valve stems until I'm ready to install them because dry rot happens, just from being exposed to air or certainly sunlight.

Very informative

GO to home depot and look for front and back wheel tires that are compatible with your mower

Thank you!

Idk what kinda tires yall use in these instructional videos, but they’re so much more pliable than the tires I’m trying to get off!

For breaking the bead on a 10 year old weathered lawn tractor rear tire, I used a Handyman (farmer's jack, Jackall, Hi-Lift, etc) jack. I put the lift tongue in the receiver tube of my truck, and the foot on my tire next the rim, and jacked it until the bead popped.

That works fine with SOFT RUBBER tires. The ones I have require a machine to stretch them...:-(

Put the iron in the middle so you can spin the other iron on it as a center pivot. Much easier

Maybe you guys should try doing this with a brand new tire that’s been folded up. Taking a tire off that’s already been on a rim is a lot easier compared to these packaged tires that are folded all fucked up. I can’t seat the bead because it’s so used to be folded.

That is the most pliable tire I have ever seen....

Quick question... Are car valve stems and lawnmower valve stems the same diameter? I would think car rims are thicker and using one of those on a mower rim would leak even if it fit the hole.

Spray CorrosionX on the rim edge. It works great.

Nice trick. Tire was already free from the bead there fella

I used a sawzall Chisel And cutting wheel Two hours to remove one

re: 0:35m - rather than ruin one's perfectly good valve stem; a valve key tool is less than 2 bucks at any auto parts store and nearly any gas station. the valve is easily loosened and then retightened post tire swap. bonus perk?!

Proactvely replacing the valve stem is good practice. It's made of rubber just like the tire, and dry rots over time. It's a $3 part thats easy to replace while you have the tire off. Running it to failure requires you to go through this process all over again.

NFW does this work on a 6-ply tire. You need the tire changer.

Can you use large flathead screwdrivers and liberal amounts of curse words in place if the tire iron set?

Cleaning the bead area with a wire brush must not be required? I ask because I've seen the pros clean them with a grinder and then re-apply adhesive. Maybe thats only required for highway rated tires?

You forgot the step where you yell and curse and throw a tire iron through your neighbor's window and go to jail 👍

I ended up using a big wood working clamp to squeeze the tire at the bead on one side, while making sure the clamp was pushing on the rim on the other side. This made sure I was pushing only on the one sidewall. That, some soapy water, and a couple tire tools did the trick. Took a lot of work to get the clamp squeezed down though...

It also helps if you have beefy forearms and biceps like the guy in the video. : )

I set the tire under the jack stand of my ten foot trailer, then I stand on the tongue of the trailer, bounce a little bit, and bead breaks right away.

This is weird you never show the part when you use a sawzall to remove the old tire 😂

1000% not as easy as he makes it look, not even close, especially with deformed dry rot tires

I have a question: Since getting the old tire off is about 1/2 the work - can you just cut it off with a sawzall or a oscillating tool?

Make sure you use your knee on the remount. You may have to use gloves to grip the tire.

Rim would not come off Transmission shaft. No amount of pounding worked. Stopped due to possible damage to Transmission. Use a wood clamp & WD40 to de bead tire off rim easy. Soap water installed new tire. Rope and stick R strap squeezed tread 4 easy bead seat of new tire. Rim was rusty but left as is due to file and sanding and paint might not work. Just greased the new tire and rim to prevent slow any futher rusting. Rim rust was only on LH rim. Soap checked for leaks and washed off soap. spray painted rum to tire.

It would have been more realistic if you'd have changed an old tire instead of a brand new one. New ones aren't stuck and hard like the old ones will be.

Took two pro's and tire shop machine to mount a couple AG tires. NO Way would they have ever gone on without the machine.

Dude you should do guided meditations.

It ain't showing the tire flying across the yard before he finally got it

Real man doesn't wear gloves, good!!!!!!

You guys all must be using really soft tires.

Good video but be forewarned. On being mechanically inclined, on a scale of 1 to 10, I might be generous on giving myself a 6. With KZread and common sense I can usually figure things out, but not a lot of experience. This is not as easy as he makes it look. It took me a good while just to break the bead. If your less than a 5 on the scale, DO NOT ATTEMPT. LOL.

Dream music appropriate for a dream tyre change -- a tyre change in your dreams. The reality -- in the real, waking world, it's a nightmare.

Don't clip the valve stem unless you really want to do a new one. A valve removal tool is like 3 bucks and you probably have one laying around on a valve cap of something.

Well, I tried... way too much tension on my tire bead
