Most do not have a filter, some have a screen to clean out and some have nothing at all.

No it was packed as suihe , but I would assume they are all about the same

Rotella T5 10w-30 is what I run in pretty much all my gear, since it's great in the winter and for my summer months we don't usually see over 30° Celsius. But if I'm running hard in the summer and it was hot I'd use 15w-40

I got a machine shop to build a complete new one, thicker steel, And replaced bolts and blades with bigger ones as well . The factory ones are pretty junky

I'm researching and thinking of buying one of these. Seeing the issues with breakage. I found this link and hope it might help you. bladesetnew.com/wolverine-72-brush-mower-brush-cutter-skid-steer-attachment-blade-set-with-bolts/

Fill the oil in the gearbox, it comes empty Check the bolts that hold the mirror and the gearbox to the deck they tend to loosen off and if possible replace the nuts with nylock nuts And like this video shows about blade modification, I'm sure you'll need to do it at some point, I just fixed mine as things broke, the blades themselves that come with it and definitely junk though But make sure you check the great box for oil!

Pretty good so far, I've actually over done it a couple time and had to cut off about 20 feet of line, the winch still works great, but it sits outside and does "squeal " a bit on a part of the turn but I don't use it often or even take any care of it for that matter lol, so short answer it's holding up better than expected

@@Logandoucet define over done it? You’re saying a 20’ container over did it? Cause they weigh about 5k…..would you say this thing worth $1000?

@@bbb129 no I over did it pulling a 23k lbs garbage bin on , this winch is definitely worth the 1000$ all day long

@@Logandoucet Just picked me up a similar unit!

I have the same problem and they are not getting back to me. Did you find any replacement for your rotary arm? Did they ever get back to U? Thanks

I bought it at a Richie brother auction, I use it for a variety of things, and actually I've over done it a few times with this winch and yes still going strong.

kinda late but I just got done putting a stump jumper on mine. all you need is a 12 spline stump jumper and a blade set it cost me just shy of $300.

Check my other videos on blade modification, I got mine from blue diamond, need to modify a few things but it's totally worth it

Left loose, that's why I used lock nuts, then they can still swing and not loosen off on you. You could use a shoulder bolt and make the hole on the arms a bit smaller so the shoulder gets tight on the arm and leaves the blade loose, but since this is all special built, I'm not sure if you'd find the right shoulder bolt without getting that made as well

I thought that too but upon further review the dog started getting up before he got the second one on

You're better off having the center bar , but add a stump jumper to it, that's the round disk and will protect everything

@@Logandoucet hey mate thanks for the input 👍

@@Logandoucet what’s a stump jumper? Is it just a peace welded I the center of the bar?

@@stephenlees9752 you can buy them from pretty much any tractor place, it will bolt right on, and they usually only run 50-100$

@@Logandoucet have you got a photo of one?

Depends what you're looking for, any just random steel parts I would get built stronger. Blades I get from blue diamond, I have another video with the link for them and how I built them in.

I no longer own one, I actually sold it when I sold my s185, but it is a direct drive as far as I remember. Most importantly if you get one the gear box will have no oil in it, make sure you fill it before using at all. I probably had 100-200 hours on mine with no issues other than the blades and the blade mount. Gearbox seemed pretty solid. It has a bypass built in so if you stall it it won't hurt anything

@@Logandoucet thanks. Yea I would add fuild and rebuild the blade stuff thanks

Don't think I have any pictures of it and I've since sold it. But I cut everything off and rebuilt all new right off the spline

Can you post or send photos of what you did to reinforce the blade arm? I broke mine as well and need to fabricate the repair.

@@kellymcdonald8956 he just cut the arm off where the upper and lower section come together, then added 1/2” steel to build the end of arm back. I didn’t realize the entire arm was bent before I gave it to him. Now I have a bad vibrations that is probably going to eat the gear box. As far as I’m concerned, these things are trash for anything other than grass.

I just bought one also, used 1 hour lost blade, can't find it, can't seem to find a replacement blade either

This happened to me, still looking to what to do about replacing

just got done doing a stump jumper set up all you need it a 12 spline stump jumper and a blade set it cost a little under 300 for the set up

I've never had that issue on any of the attachments I got from the RB auctions. But it's Chinese stuff so wouldn't surprise me to much! Make sure you check your quick attach as well

No more did not Come with oil in the gear box, they usually don't as they come from China, they have to be shipped with no oil. Definitely sucks that it ran dry is it just the bearing that blew apart?

I wish I had of know that... was really disappointed to find this out. I bought it from Richie bro’s auction so of course no one told me anything. It messed up 2 of the bearings, and chewed the teeth on the ring/pinion. Unfortunately I’m in for a complete rebuild if I can find the parts or I’ll have to modify it to accept a new gear box/motor

@@mikeolmstead293 that sucks man! I'll check online tonight if I can find something for you, I had a few leads before on parts. I'll see what I can scrounge up for you

That would be awesome. Much appreciated. I have an email into wolverine supplies see if they can get me anything. Would really like to get this back up and running

@@mikeolmstead293 m.alibaba.com/product/60843370632/Rotary-Mower-Gearboxes-Size-EP70.html?__sceneInfo=%7B%22cacheTime%22%3A%221800000%22%2C%22type%22%3A%22appDetailShare%22%7D I'm not sure if that's the correct one, but they make many different sizes, if you contact them with any numbers off yours they should have it! If you've never ordered from Alibaba. Make sure you ask for "door to door shipping" I've ordered many things from the site and never had any issues!

I think it will do fine, just watch for rocks, if you stick to brush and grass you'll have no problems at all! If you do want to tackle the bigger stuff you'll want bigger blades and to strengthen the blade arm

Logan Doucet do you have any videos of yours been used cutting? And can you tell me what are you referring to when you said tackle bigger stuff? Like what? This will be my first time using a cutter. Sorry if im asking silly questions. Im new as you can tell.

I do have a few videos of it in use on here, not too many though, and if you start going after things over 3" the original blades don't last, and if you hit any rocks as well

Yes the 60" blue diamond blades are the proper length blades for these 72" wolverine cutters

My wolverine just went out , I bought new ,but it never dawned on me to check if it had gear oil ,or grease.. I ran it without either .. i just messed up my gears in my gear box .. Where and how can I get a new gear box for wolverine 72" cutter ?? Any info will be appreciated it. Thank you

You can order a new one from agrisupply.com its a standard 40hp gear box. You can upgrade to a higher hp rated one if you want to.

@@codylay4341 what would be the next higher than a 40hp .. and also is it hard to remove the gearbox away from the hydraulic pump?

Overall quite well after a few upgrades, on the blades and the "arm". The gear box has been flawless. For the price of this compared to a USA brand its definitely worth it! But blade and arm upgrades are a must. Unless you can hit no tree stumps, rocks, random steel etc...

What did you do to beef up the arm?

@@codylay4341 I cut the centre spline out basically and welded on thicker and wider steel

As long as the center spline is still good, I would get it rebuild with heavier (wider and thicker) steel I did this with mine at a machine shop. It cost me about 250$ to get it fully rebuilt (Labour is pretty cheap where I'm at) Any "replacement" you buy for this would be from China more than likely and the same quality. So I would 100% recommend getting one built as long as the length and height are the same you'd have no issues

@@Logandoucet Gotcha' Thank you!

Honestly I would recommend it, as long as you can get it at a good price. I paid 1400$cnd for it but have put about 800-1000$ in work into it. The deck itself and mounting plate are pretty good, but the blades and the "arm that holds the blades " aren't tough enough. I got mine all rebuild recently with thicker and wider steel. But for the 2500$ i have invested in it is a lot less then any American brand one

@@stephenlees9752 I mow up to 4" with it, it works good but you can't keep running forward in heavy brush, you'll have to stop once a bunch falls and I lift the mower up and lower it back on everything to "mulch it" but anything less than 2-3 inch will fall instantly

@@Logandoucet Thanks for the advice

do not buy wolverine unless you get a steal on it and have a fab-shop. They are massively under-built at critical junctures.

The original blades are garbage and take some minor modification to get better blades on it. Every Bolt is loose, so make sure you take every one out, locktite and reinstall. Other than that it's been great!

What is the part number of the replacement blades you got for it ?

@@Clc_farms I'll check tonight, they aren't a direct fit though, you'll need 1-1/2" bolts for it and have to drill out the hole on the arm of the mower itself. Since I've done that I've got about 50 hours on it and no issues at all

@@Clc_farms www.bluediamondattachments.com/product/60-blade-kit-current-models/ That's the link, this one also comes with the bolts! But you can get individual blades

Y Town Mini Hoe I have the same exact one and I just put a stump pan on it and 28” inch blades with new bolts and she is bad to the bone...took down a 8” holly tree the other day with her

Well probably a 3 out of 5, the blades it comes with are junk broke in the fist few hours. And all the bolts need to be lock tite and weld key stock around the head, as the vibrations will steady loosen off the bolts. Other than that the mower is great
