Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

I was looking through the Craftsman attachments page and noticed they have some videos for their attachments.  Here is the attachments page.   Here is the video for the spreader I was looking for.  I'm almost set on the 85lb. broadcast spreader, but I really don't know what more I get other than a larger bucket to spread with on the 125lb. model.  I do have a 1/2 acre property.  I consider my purchase of a Craftsman tractor justified with all these attachments to choose from.   I really like the front end bucket, but I think Johnny Products are better.  It is raining like mad here and I need to get a jump on the weeds. 

Mine's very similar to that, mines a Scotts brand. I think my lever release is different.

I took for granted since it was green, it was a Scotts.  Scotts probably makes it or they make it for Scotts.  April is a month around here that has lots of rain in it.  I usually never water the lawn, since we almost always have water restriction, like we do now.  I still need to go out there and put a soaking on it so nothing burns up. 

Yes you do, you don't want it to sit on there for more than 24hrs before you water it.

Back in my ornery days, a week or two ago, we took fetilizer/nitrogen, and spelled some wording on one of our close friends lawn as a practical joke. Of course he was unaware of it and didn't water. It stood out nicely after a about a week.

well about the only thing you can do with your lawn now is bring it over to my place and install it.

i will look after it from now on.

if you ask real nice and store your new tractor in my basement then i might let you mow it every sunday

later chris

Well, it has been more than 24 hrs. and with me being sick it didn't get watered.  There is no rain in the forecast until Wednesday.  I hope it won't hurt to water it tomorrow if I feel better.  By the way, it will probably get brown right?    Hopefully it didn't kill it. 

AJace, don't worry bout it, it won't kill it. Get water on it tomorrow some time. Just set out a sprinkler and let it work, go back inside and get better.

Sounds great to me.   You had me a worried a bit there.     

AJace, here's what my spreader looks like.

Scott's makes Snapper, or does Snapper make Scotts?  How do all the Snapper attachments play out? 

I strongly imagine that it is Scotts that makes Snappers.

The attachment I have have been good, can't speak for all of them though.
