Husqvarna push mower
Original Message   May 3, 2005 4:04 pm
I picked this up today from the dealer that sold me my tractor. It's a basic 3 in 1 push mower, but it should work just fine
for the trim work I'll be doing. It  really has a nice solid feel to it.  Good cut too. Ran me $249. I like it. I think we are going
to get a break from the rain this week. I'll get some play time in.                         Kevin

Vangellis, does that Briggs engine have the new carb where you do not have to use a choke or prime? If so, how does it start?

looks like a nice mower for trim work. $249? Thats not too bad for a machine that bags too. Well, I hope that you like it!

Hi Brian. No, it has a primer. Intek OHV. Runs pretty smooth. I put the mower through a lot today and am very happy with the way it performed. Man, it was caked with dust.                                      Kevin

Kevin, were you bagging or mulching on it's virgin run? Does it use the same blade for both or do you need a seperate blade for one or the other?

Hi Marshall. I was bagging. It bags, mulchs, or side discharges. I liked the option of having all 3 and it's quick and easy to go from one to the other in a matter of a few seconds. It has a mulching blade in it. According to the dealer the only thing you can't do is mulch with a regular blade. Duh

Thanks Marty. I'm done stimulating to economy for a while. I cut my lawn with the Conquest today. Then I pulled out the old  Simplicity and cut the neighbors paths through her woods and fields. Finished up with some trim work on my yard with the Husky. After I parked them all back in the shed and was closing the doors, I took a nice long look at "Team Dempsey" LOL.
I realized that I was lucky to have aquired the new OPE and grateful that I was able to do so.

Kevin, are you going to detail it any?  I can see adding some bullet hole stickers to my LT, how about you?

Hi Ajace. No I don't think so. I kind of like them the way they are. When I was thinking of getting an engine for the parts mower I thought of getting a new paint job and adding flames to the hood. I think that would have looked real good.
