Most simple instructional video! Super helpful!! My husband is away and i wanted to cut the grass for him but didnt know how to operate it. Thank you for making this video!!!
HI, I AM FEMALE AND TURNING 64, CHILDREN (ALL BOYS) GROWN AND MOVED AWAY ..... I HAVE NEVER BEEN ON A RIDING LAWN MOWER IN MY LIFE! .... SO I BOUGHT A USED CRAFTSMAN RIDER BECAUSE MY KNEES ARE READY FOR REPLACEMENT (BONE ON BONE) I HAVE ALSO HAD TWO SPINE SURGERIES SEVERAL YEARS AGO, SO WALKING ANY DISTANCE FARTHER THAN FROM MY BED RM. TO THE BATH RM. IS NO LONGER IN MY ABILITIES, HOWEVER I CAN STILL DRIVE MY TRUCK ..... LOVED YOUR DEMO. PERFECT FOR FIRST TIMERS (LIKE ME) ..... I BELIEVE IM READY FOR MY MAIDEN VOYAGE THANKS TO YOUR VIDEO......
Rita, Thank you very much, you have made my day! You are the reason I made this video! You never know who will benefit from a video like this, so glad that you did. Keep on pushing, your doing great!
Just bought this exact model and wanted to make sure I started it right, because the manuals had been completely water damaged from being an outside display model. Thanks to your video, I'm ready to use my first ever riding mower for my 0.9 acre yard!!!! Thanks!!!!
Thank you so much on the lesson on how to drive and use a riding lawnmower. My husband used to do the lawncare, but he recently passed away and I had no idea how to use a riding lawnmower. So, thank you, this video helps a lot.
Sorry for the loss of your husband. I recently lost my mother, and have been suffering ever since. It makes my day, to know that I helped make your life a bit easier. Thank you.
My first riding T110 is arriving this morning. Your video is the easiest to follow and I feel ready to take on my lawn and not pay for the service year after year. Thanks!!
Just bought a T110 and was looking for this exact info, it's been decades since I last rode one of these and definitely needing a little refresher. I'm looking forward to the maintenance video 👍
My dad had to leave to help a cousin and I got left to care for his lawn and garden. The lawn needs mowed but his riding mower is very scary. Thank you very much for making this video. I very much appreciate it. I will give it a try.
I just purchased this model and the manual did not give any of the information that you provided. It kept stalling on me and now I understand what I was doing wrong. Thank you for posting this video it was very helpful!!
THANK YOU! Best video on TH-cam on how to operate this lawn mower! Would you be able to show us how to do maintenance/ oil change for this particular model ?
THANK YOU! You have made my day! Of course I will. I was waiting until the end of the season. So in about 2 days from now in Michigan. lol. Should be coming around end of Sept.
I'm adding another comment--Thank you SO much for showing us how to cut grass and winterize and change blades out. Silly, but I'm afraid of power tools. ROFL! But I have to get out there and DO IT! You should see my 20 yo daughter--she's a baddy with all power tools. Woooot!!!!
No problem. Thank you for watching, and the support. I do believe you have the right idea, in a respectful fear of tools such as these. Everything in my garage can hurt, or kill you in someway if not careful. Come to think of it, all I do is dangerous stuff....I need to go sit down somewhere. Tell your daughter, I said "hi" and "thank you".
@@kachiskid You're welcome. I also might add if it weren't for your video i'd still be reading the manual trying to figure my new mower out. Can you post a video regarding using reverse and being able to mow in reverse also? Thanks.
@@artistdunc Yeah, I thought I could do a little better than the manual. lol. For reverse cutting I have a bypass video, so you don't have to do that process. th-cam.com/video/u2iKG2_NywY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for the video! I just bought one T110 today for my parents. I saw it does not have the right side paddle so I was wondering how to ride this one. Now I got it! 👍
Really cool tractor lawnmower I used one of these in my days of being a commercial landscaper they get the job done while you kick back in comfort and enjoy the ride ...😁👍I enjoy riding lawn mowers of different sorts it beats walking behind a push mower any day doesn't it ..😆 nice purchase my bro this craftsman tractor lawnmower will last you a lifetime and some awesome choice ...👍
Yeah I'm hoping to get a lot of good years out of Sequoia. If I get enough views I will do a review on this model. There a couple of things I would change. The seat could be more comfortable.
Thanks man I was like you had a walk mower and just bought the t110 same controls but needed to figure it out now I know so I won't look like a fool thanks again
Lol. Listen no worries, I am lot older than that, and was looking for the same video 2 weeks before I made mine. I am really surprised at the response I have gotten on this video. I assumed it was common knowledge, just hadn't done it before, and I was wasting my time. I'm proud of them all, but really just trying to help.
I've got a Craftsman lawn tractor as well. They hold up good. But you are missing some important information you should put in your next video - a GPS speed test! 😁
@@kachiskid pretty certain they do, believe they have always been the cheap-o walmart brand, they just use to be made much better imo. Early 90's still had the more squared off body style that I appreciate in both trucks and mowers.
$2000 seemed like a lot when I could get a '42 at the same price, but she slides in nicely, right between my cars. Having never had one, I don't know what I'm missing without that extra 6 inches. At $50/cut for 6 months (Michigan) is $1200. In 2 years she is paid off. To bad gas is so expensive.
Thanks for this video .. very helpful .. I purchased Craftsman T110 riding mower .. 3 months old .. it would not start!! Turn the keys no juice to the starter .. The battery is fully charged, it has a full tank of gas, engine oil is good, seat switch is good but yet it would not start!!
@@kachiskid Yes it was running the day before.. I did check the following Battery Charged, Fuel is full, Check Dipstick engine oil is in range, Lever in Neutral(Not forward or reverse), Clutch is Park position, Disengage mower deck (Blades NOT engaged), Choke in Rabbit position, 8. Check the -(ve) ground connection below the seat and very no loose wiring - Still wouldn't start!
Does the engine attempt to turn over when you turn the key? What is the voltage reading on your battery? You know for a fact that the engine hasn't seized or anything, right?
I just got mine delivered from Lowes pre-assembled. I had it set to cut at level 3 and doesn't looks like it's giving me that nice looking stripes that I would normally get using my old Bolens before it died. I had to switch it to a 2 to get similar look like my old lawn mower or at least to give a feeling that my grass is being cut. What I'm I doing wrong?
Whoa, that is crazy because I am currently using setting #4 because #3 was cutting to low. I guess it depends on what type pf grass you are cutting. Feel free to send pic to kachlskid.com. Hard to diagnose without seeing it.
@@kachiskidI can't send pic and looks like my comment got deleted because I've included the link to pic/video. If you can get to it, let me know what you think, or I'm I having high expectations? Thanks.
I gotta cub cadet 42 inch, we have right about an acre, let me tell ya at my age and health issues...that thing is a life saver...I'll have to show you how to mod that bitch... 😆
@@kachiskid you can change the speed of a tractor by putting different size pulleys on the bottom of the engine it is the most effective way to be cheap and get real gains
I’m a female and have never operated one of these. I’m just getting tired of paying such high prices for my mowing service. Seems seems tremendously complicated for me. I had no idea a “clutch” was involved. Perhaps had I learned to drive a stick shift many years ago, this wouldn’t be so threatening! Ugh!😳
Please don't be threatened..I had no idea of how to use this mower, until 10 days to making this video. The idea of the clutch is to just get it rolling and to move into lower and high gears. Same as a car or a bike. I never had ridden a motorcycle and STlLL have never driven a stick shifting car. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
I am having issues with mine. it will not start on choke. it will start on rapid. if I cut some grass get off and get back on in 5minutes it will not start. I have to wait a while. what could that be\?
I'm 82 and my wife is 77 so a walk behind mower is a eqal pain literally. So we are buying a T110 with the snow blade since we do get snow where we live. Grass cutting services and snow removal are gettig too expensive!
@@kachiskid We figured the cost of a residential lawn and snow removal service for our area over a years time and the cost of the machine and blade is just about a wash.
I hope you've learned by now but the thing you were calling the choke is the choke and throttle the thing you called the throttle is just a speed adjuster it does not adjust the throttle

That is so awesome. Just got the new Briggs oil, so winterizing/maintenance will be coming up soon.
It has been about 14 years since I've needed to mow a lawn. Even then, it was a push mower.
Thank you for this, life saver!
No problem, glad I was able to help.
I just got my t100 delivered.......thank you very much for the tutorial
No problem. That is a nice tractor. Take care of it, and she will take care of you.
Great video! Thank you for sharing. I too had a wimpy push mover on 1.25 acres and just broke down and bought the T100.

Very explicit and well done. Enjoy your summer. You have enough to keep you quite busy.
Thank you. Summer is gonna a lot easier this year. I might actually get some video's filmed. Stay tuned.
I've operated a John Deere, but I'm looking at a used Craftsman right now. It's a little different. Thanks for the tutorial.
You bet.
Thanks man I was like you had a walk mower and just bought the t110 same controls but needed to figure it out now I know so I won't look like a fool thanks again
No problem 👍 bro. Glad I was able to help out.
Another great episode sharing great information
Glad you enjoyed it.
Nice. We have the same ignition in our Cub Cadet 42 . Reverse is a tough one to figure out at first.
Yeah reverse is ssssssssoooooooooo stupid. I wonder how many kids and animals got hurt before they came up with those stupid systems.
I want to thank you for making this video because I didn't have anyone to teach me this stuff and now im 34 youtubing how to use my mower....
Lol. Listen no worries, I am lot older than that, and was looking for the same video 2 weeks before I made mine. I am really surprised at the response I have gotten on this video.

@@kachiskid hahahaha I got it working thanks to this video. I've got my front lawn done since I watched it. Spotty, but I'll learn. THANK YOU
@@Psykoticgodd No problem. I will be doing a review at the end of the year. Do you have the same one, or one similar?
This was incredibly helpful, thank you for posting this.
You're very welcome!
thank you for the video we just got the T100 and wanted to start using it
No problem. You are going to love it. Awesome machine. Make sure you watch th-cam.com/video/u2iKG2_NywY/w-d-xo.html
The Troy-Bilt Pony has the exact same controls and works the same way. It just has a bigger engine (500cc) and a 42" cutting width.
I hear a lot of good things about the Troy-Bilt Pony.
The red and the black looks sick.
Heck yeah it does!
I've got a Craftsman lawn tractor as well. They hold up good. But you are missing some important information you should put in your next video - a GPS speed test! 😁
Yeah, I mentioned it in the description...lol. You know that is my "thing".
Exactly what I needed. THANK YOU.
Not a problem.
Thank you sir ! I’m ready to do some yard work!
That's what I'm talking about... go get 'em. You're welcome.
I have a very early 90's murray that is still running strong. Not quite this fancy but it gets the job done 👍
Lol. The '90s were a good time. Do they still make that name brand?
@@kachiskid pretty certain they do, believe they have always been the cheap-o walmart brand, they just use to be made much better imo. Early 90's still had the more squared off body style that I appreciate in both trucks and mowers.

Enjoyed this video. That's a very nice mower you got Katchi, that will save you a lot of time.
Yeah, I timed it yesterday and was done with the main cutting in an hour and a half.
Oh my! I can image using a push mower for a huge yard. Whew!!!
It would normally take two 8 hour sessions to complete.
@@kachiskid 😵
Do you need to engage the clutch every time you change speed on the throttle? If you go from 4-6 do you need the clutch engaged?
I do. I use the clutch a lot. Yes from 1-2-3-4-5-6-7, engage.

Thank you ! This was very helpful!
No problem. I try to help when I can. Nice handle.
How’s this holding up? The experts always recommend against buying an MTD unit. I went for a John Deere.
Going into my 3rd mowing season with no issues at all. John Deere is the best, you didn't go wrong.
I gotta cub cadet 42 inch, we have right about an acre, let me tell ya at my age and health issues...that thing is a life saver...I'll have to show you how to mod that bitch... 😆
Hell yeah! I was gonna get the Cub but 42" was just to big. Our age has a lot to do with it.
Can you change the speed (yellow lever) as you are moving?
Yes, make sure to hold the brake/clutch in a little when moving up or down.
Awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the video
No problem.
Pop the deck off and get some races going with your neighbors .hi kid have fun with the little tractor
Lol. You know I'm looking to smoke the biggest J. Deer in the hood. Maybe race for pinks.
@@kachiskid dont race for pinks a lot of the tractors are running the 24 horse 2 cylinder Kohler

Thank you, I really appreciate it.
i just bought the t110 and its my first riding mower. what type of gas do you use for your mower?
Because of the price of gas, I use 89 octane and add Lucas ethanol remover. Congrats on your 1st riding mower.
Can you not use 87 gas?
Very helpful thanks.
You're welcome!

Check your carb. you might have to remove and open. Could be a float bowl issue. Might be getting stuck.
I'm 82 and my wife is 77 so a walk behind mower is a eqal pain literally.
So we are buying a T110 with the snow blade since we do get snow where we live.
Grass cutting services and snow removal are gettig too expensive!
Good choice. did you check all the brands though? John Deere, and Cub Cadet?
Yes but beyond our mens!@@kachiskid
Ah, I just wanted you to know all of the options. It is a great little mower. I think you will be very happy.

I have a John Deere riding lawn mower that’s a 5-speed….I have no idea what gear to put it in and when? Help lol
What model of John Deere do you have?
What kind of gas does it take?
87 but I do use an ethanol reducer..

2 good "G's". $1900 if you buy at the right time.
I strongly dislike these style mowers. Honestly my favorite style is probably the lt1000 style manual or the 90s simplicity style.
What do you find the biggest differences are? This one seems pretty simple too.
@@kachiskid it is simple however I just think it's overused.
