I bought a John Deere reel mower for $220

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Looking for deals on Facebook marketplace place I found a professional John Deere 11 blade reel mower. It was in unknown condition so seller just wanted it out of their property and we were able to make a deal. After inspecting the unit it was discovered it wasn’t starting due to water in fuel and also contaminated oil.

    Nice find, water in oil and combustion chamber was bad. Need to put an inline fuel filter to the carb, they are cheap and ez to install. I would also use a some SeaFoam in both the gas and oil and run it to temperature and replace it. Fixed many old generators, welders, pumps, hoists, snow throwers, tillers, lawn mowers and such that people gave up on that had very little wrong with them. I wish I had my old reel from back in the 70's I mowed lawns with. 2 inch cut laid out some reel nice stripes. I'm still on a look out locally for used one at a sensible price. Thanks for the video.

    I always do have a gallon of sea foam around for my diesel’s 😎 I’ll definitely add some before the oil flush

    Cut quality is definitely better but it all depends on how short you will keep your lawn. Reel mowers aren’t recommended for anything over an inch so if you don’t intend to mow your lawn atleast 3 times a week to keep it very short there’s absolutely nothing wrong with traditional rotary mowers for people to mow once a week.
