    Hold tie down anchor plate on the bottom when marking holes so you can make sure they don’t interfere with the grid and you won’t need to cut it. Also drill anchor bolt holes from the bottom for the same reason.

    Thanks for showing this! Question: Why use the 0.05 gauge first? Can't you just use the 0.10 only?

  • @hursst
    @hursst2 ай бұрын

    I am very confused by this video. At first, you set the initial gap at .05mm, torque the rocker nut and it's good. Then you need to check the cold clearance. There is an edit/gap in the video, then you proceed to put a .1mm feeler gauge in there and it goes in. First, why are you setting an initial gap of .05mm at all when you need to set a cold gap immediately after of .1mm? Second, and most importantly, how are you setting a .05mm gap, then magically inserting a .1mm feeler and that fits right in? What did I miss here? Why is there an edit in the video when you're switching feeler gauges from .05mm to .1mm?

    I just asked that too, Hursst. I have the shop manual. In it, they say to do the same thing. Are they assuming the engine is still a bit warm? They specify the cold clearance settings as Kuzru has mentioned in his video. Here's the data from the manual: *Valve Clearance Adjustment* • Since valve repairs change the valve clearance, adjust the valve clearance to the specified. • Turn the crankshaft in proper direction until the piston is at the TDC of the compression stroke (as described above). • Loosen the locknut [A] and adjusting bolt [B]. •Insert a 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.) thickness gauge [C] between the rocker arm and valve stem end, and turn the adjusting bolt until the thickness gauge begins to bind between the rocker arm and valve stem end. Sweep the thickness gauge during this adjustment. Valve Clearance (when cold) Inlet, Exhaust: 0.10 ∼ 0.15 mm (0.0039 ∼ 0.0059 in.)

    @@hursst Hi Hursst. I've watched a few other videos and the guys set the clearances with one gauge on a cold engine. This video defies logic, as you pointed out. The 0.05 mm was snug. The 0.10 should never have fit at all. To be fair he has copied the procedure in the shop manual to the letter. I have the same manual and am starting to question its content. One other thing to note is, the manual that came with my X300 shows the engine specs. My engine model # is FS600V and the clearances are 0.075 to 0.125 mm (Cold). I'll be using these specs. Thanks for the discussion :)!

    It pulls hills like crazy, lots of power given the age and size. The mower deck linkages are finicky and were always breaking on me though. The rear wheels were absolutely rusted on to the axles. Not even a puller + heat + air hammer + sledge hammer could get them off. So if you buy one, make sure you can change the tires on it without cutting the old wheels off.

    Just a thought. Considering your tie downs are only attached to the expanded metal which isn’t very strong, maybe the 3/4” plywood is the better choice. Say you have something pretty heavy in that trailer like say a motorcycle and the small spot welds that hold the expanded metal give way over time and you go around a corner and that force pops up that expanded metal from the frame there a possibility 1/2” plywood (especially if it older and been on there awhile could beak and fold over and you dump your load over on its side. Unless you slap some bolts here and there through the plywood and attach it directly to the frame which is much stronger that could very well happen. That expanded metal is very flimsy on those trailers. They aren’t using the good stuff anymore. I can literally bend it with my hands. I’d say the heavier plywood would be much stronger and less likely to break and fold over if what I suggested ever happened. Fairly unlikely but definitely something to think about especially without high sides to keep anything from flying off the trailer should that happen. Personally I’d go with the 1/2” like you said and bolt it to the frame just for safety sake. Just a thought.

Whoever had it before me took the JD serial number sticker off and never stamped the serial number into the steel frame when they took the sticker off.

    Not that i happens that often, but when to stuck the front bucket the first time, my brain was like "NOOOOO". Having it curled all the way down, like you did, you pull the stress onto the cylinder caps which are not that strong. Maybe try keeping the teeth and bottom of the bucket in line with the loader arm. This places most the stress into the loader arms, the strongest part of the loader.
