Lol....besides the motion sickness, great video and your cameramen will always remember when dad showed him how to replace the blades on his lawn mower
Installed these on a riding mower th-cam.com/users/postUgkxetgfkJxfdT_B2vGYP-uNTLaBbim9OKTD . They were sharp out of the box, although I've never liked blade edges that were coated...not quite as sharp as I personally want. Using my belt sander, I removed the coating from the cutting edges and refined the edge enough to shave with them. So far, after three runs, these blades are holding up as expected. Even after hitting a few fallen 1/2 inch or so branches, the edges are still sharp as heck. No edge dings, no warping, etc. As far as installing them, the cutouts were of the proper size and shape to fit my aging Craftsman mower. Very satisfied.
Great job and it is good to involve your son to get him interested while he is young. I've got 3 grandkids all in their teens who couldn't crank my mower if you promised them a new car much less know how to change the blades. Keep it up
1:09 Did that take several tries before the starter got cranking? My new Cub Cadet has had that several times already where it seems like the starter relay isn't closing the connection properly, just the click of the solenoid but no cranking, had to repeat it several times before it cranked and fired up. Don't think it's the battery as it cranks quickly when it does crank. Tends to do this only on a hot restart, haven't seen it cold yet. But it's only been tried for three mowing sessions so far.
OK so it's come to my attention that not all models have grease fittings on the spindle assemblies, and some are apparently just for show (i.e., they don't do much).
You could have invested in a ratchet strap for 20 bucks and hang from garage ceiling rafters or if you don’t have drywall ceiling wrap it around easy peasy also get rid of the POS electric impact…
What kind of nut ? is it a walnut..... lol, when the student becomes the teacher.... well done.... as someone said earlier... I'd chock the wheels for added safety
cant help thinking the same, remove belt guard, pull front pin, pull 2 side pins, slide it out vs ramping, chocking or strapping. I guess some decks arent easy to pull.
@@santini1953 lol.. you going to tell me to shut up and be disrepectful because you think your way is best. Nice. When I changed my blades last it took a breaker bar and 220 lbs of pressure to loosen bolts. Trying to do that upside down I wouldn't even be able to get the leverage. Then if I shift the damn thing I'll have 500lbs of metal crushing my head. So you go ahead and do what you want. Just don't tell me to shut up because I took the route that has zero risk when I have kids and family to support.
You didn't remove the spark plugs wires before you removed the blades. Very dangerous. A friend of mines dad was working underneath his tractor and accidentally crossed the starter with a screwdriver and started it up in gear. It moved forward with a disc attached and shreded him alive. Shit happens when we least expect it.
It's hydro-static dude. There is no "in gear". Even if by some small miracle a person managed to arc start it while underneath it, someone or something would have to be continuously pressing the engagement pedal forward AND maintaining weight on the seat to keep the kill mechanism from engaging AND manage to engage the PTO to activate the blades. I do this for a living and can honestly say none of my techs or I ever remove the plugs for a simple blade change / sharpening and not a single one of us have ever had even one of the above occurrences happen, much less all simultaneously.

Best camera man ever!
Awesome! Thank you for showing that lift!!!

Thanks for the lift info...easy peazie
You should also put tire chocks behind your rear wheels.
They dont really do much on pavement, most mower chocks have serrations that help keep put in the turf
Your camera man is awesome!

Come for the blade replacement, stay for the roller coaster ride
What holds the blades from spinning?
Please upload another video and show how to change the oil and oil filter
question? did you unplug spark plug or disconnect battery prior to removing blades?
what size is the BOLT
Classic overheat solution with removing the side cowlings!🤣
Need to clean the deck off after every mowingbut great job
Why does he not clean off the underneath grass buildup ?
Blair Witch Project camera person?
Actually it's alot faster just to use use a 3ton car jack just center it where the rod holds the deck up in the front.😊
That’s is the ticket for sure
Cool I didn’t know they made a lift for this
Just one thing, safety-wise, put wheel chocks or 2x or 4x boards behind and in front of back wheel or wheels.
Not if you use the straps on the front wheels
YEAH BABY EASY DOES IT
got it
Additionally, you could have called it Replacing Blades With My New Expensive Toy
Shoulda greased the spindles while you were under there, but thanks for mentioning about the thread direction.
OK so it's come to my attention that not all models have grease fittings on the spindle assemblies, and some are apparently just for show (i.e., they don't do much).
@@zacharyanderson3767 nock the bearings out and pull the grease seals off the inside and reinstalling.
Where's the sharpening video??
Motion sick at it's finest. Please slow the camera movement. I was done watching at 1:28
great involving your son. might want to mention next time it would be a great idea to clean under the deck.
Should have cleaned under the deck while you had it up
Thats what she said last night.
Do not know any one with that lift. how about normal folks?
Who is running this camera? I couldn't even watch this without getting seasick.
use some stands next time bud
Must hit grease fittings on top of mower deck......... woohoo!!¡!
You need to time the blades and clean the deck. You only did 1/2 the job
My John Deere doesn't need timing
You could have invested in a ratchet strap for 20 bucks and hang from garage ceiling rafters or if you don’t have drywall ceiling wrap it around easy peasy also get rid of the POS electric impact…
good info but the camera work was awfully hard to watch.
Ha. My camera man is 7 years old.
@@bradcanfixit8093 You're a good dad!
What kind of nut ? is it a walnut..... lol, when the student becomes the teacher.... well done.... as someone said earlier... I'd chock the wheels for added safety
Almost had to stop watching because of way to much camera movement, motion sickness. Good video.
I wish you would have started the mower to show that none of the blades hit each other.
PLEASE don't ever start the mower to see that. Just rotate the blades by hand.
STOP MOVING THE DAMN CAMERA!!!
Bro you're blade timing is a mess..
I'm sorry I don't trust that
Buy one and you will like it and trust it.
Had one for years. Mine is a mowjack, but I lock brakes and chock wheels when changing blades.
It takes less effort and risk to just take the deck clamps off and roll it out from underneath. Takes about 2-3 minutes.

Not true. Get a lift and use it before you run your mouth.

Bull shit. I can be cutting grass before you get the deck off.
@@santini1953 Good for you.. bugger off peasant. You cut grass for a career, I don't. If you're going to be disrespectful so will I.

Well, on the bright side, being shredded alive sure beats being shredded dead. Your friend’s dad is lucky, because it could have been a lot worse.
