- I Did Check the parking brake on other side and one bolt was loose. If you have over 150 hours on your machine i would check them and lock tight them.

Great video - wish there were more like these. My dealer actually prepped the brake bolts before delivery 5 years ago - I asked about them a while ago when mentioned in another video somewhere. Anyway - great info. What I do before every mowing is use a blower to clean all the grass from the engine, oil and hydraulic coolers, on the mower deck and behind the wheels. I mow 30 acres with tall grass and it gets everywhere! I am amazed at how much accumulates in front of the cooler fans. I also dig the wench setup you have - also the safety jack underneath : )
Thank you so much!! I have run one out of fuel and had the gravel issue as well....I didn't know about the bolt on the brake. But excellent video. Appreciate you taking the time to do it.
Thank you!! I've been smelling something burning here and there with mine could not for the life of me figure out where it was coming from! Now I make sure to check in there when I blow off my mower at the end of each day haven't smelled any burning since!
Thank you!!! The belt issue, now I know where the burning smell came from!
I was told those are breakaway bolts and they break because the mower is not being strapped down so they bounce around on the trailer. Glad to hear there trying to fix this issue.
CONNOR, YOU ARE MY HERO. I'M A 90 YEAR OLD OWNER OF A SCAG TIGER CAT. I PARKED THE MACHINE FOR 5 OR 6 DAYS, CAME BACK AND FILLED THE 4 GAL TANK AND WAS CRUSHED TO FIND IT WOULD NOT START. AFTER REPLACING A PERFECTLY GOOD FILTER, AND A SPARK PLUG PLUS MAKING SOME OTHER SIMPLY TESTS, I WAS CONVINCED THAT IT WAS NOT GETTING FUEL. I DID TRY BLOWING AIR BACK INTO THE 4 G GAS TANK, BUT THAT WAS A JOKE. I WATCHED A COUPLE OF LONG UTUBES THAT WERE WAY TOO TECHNICAL FOR ME. THEN I SAW YOUR 3 THINGS AND FIGURED WHY NOT? SO YOU SAID REVERSE THE INNER AIR FILTER AND GIVE IT A GO. I THOUGHT THIS GUY MUST BE HIGH ON SOMETHING (TOO MANY GAS FUMES). FIRST OF ALL THE FILTER WOULD NOT STAY CONNECTED BUT I SAID WHY NOT REPLACE THE ENTIRE UNIT, WHICH I DID. THE NEXT STEP WAS ONE THAT I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE - THE DAMNED THING STARTED. YOU SAVED ME A SMALL FORTUNE IN REPAIRS AND TRANSPORTATION AND I HAVEN'T A CLUE WHY IT WORKED. THANK YOU,THANK YOU!
Your caps lock is on man
It worked because the engine was supplying fuel with almost no air coming along to mix with it, leaving extra fuel in the cylinder upon normal startup. This gives a significantly richer A/F ratio. It’s basically a full choke, further upstream.
Great video. Really useful information for those of us who own one. I wish you had mentioned your year model.
Great video thanks for the upload.
Tiger hard to start after running out of gas? Simply add a boat motor
prime bulb in the gas line . Solves a lot of start problems!
I work at scag dealer ship. And I'm glad you pointed out flaws. Does not mean it's a bad unit. I service over 300 scags a year. Scag is a tank just a few things they need to work out.
Scags definitely very well built.
We have a scat that will not get power to ignition switch went through very safety switch all fuses any suggestions
Engage and disengage the pto with they in the on position if it clicks you've got power. Also check relays if it is a turf tiger
Looking to possibly buy one new so appreciate the video! Happy to hear scag works with/for its customers unlike ExMark 😅
noooo man - exmark is a really nice mower.
I beg the differ! Scag is over well built so it’s heavier and the deck is heavy to so when you lifting the deck with your feet it get heavy on the foot iit’s built like a tank and that the problem we don’t need a tank we need a mower and nothing cuts better then a exmark that’s a fact but scag is very good a cutting wet grass faster and better then the exmark but that’s about it if they just stop with the over building then it miybe something different!
Be great to hear how well it stayed tight with the locktite bolt or whatever.
Love my original turf tiger with the band brake…and I like my injected Kohler
Me too , bought a tiger cat 2 recently also , I hate that one ..
Had the same parking brake issue on my 2019 SCAG TT2. Loosened my wheel bolts too and rounded out the holes, they ended up replacing brake parts and wheel. Also had front wheel axel come loose and destroy the bearing. No motor issues yet, love the big 37hp.
How many hours did you have on it when that happened
@@connorklein6299 wanna say like 117. No big issues this year...at 340hrs now.
Thanks Connor.
The only issue I had with mine was the brake issue. Mine didn't break they just backed out. Locked tighted then and haven't had an issue since thankfully
Add a hand pump like the ones used on small boats gas tanks
My e brake, breaks not wrking recently. . wonder if thats the problem. . gettin no spring back on the pedal, and a creek or squeek comeing from somwere when i push the pedal up and dwn by hand.
Thank you!
I jad problems with the engine shutting off every 30 minutes and brake not holding. I can't figure out why but I have a idea what it is. I'm tired with scag I'm slowly starting to go with ferris. Thanks to scag I have to switch over.
Just put a fuel priming ball on the fuel line. A good 2 pumps in the AM and it fires right up.
I have never had any luck with a briggs engine, I just purchased a used 20 year old Commercial Ferris 61 inch cut zero turn it had a kohler engine that threw a rod (because no one checked oil) i installed a new/used one off another mower I have put some new blades on and man it cuts perfect Also my yard is a little hilly and it does not have much of a problem with them center of gravity is low
I felt the same as you about Briggs. I'm an older fellow and years back it seemed like B&S engines were just junk. In the last 6 or 7years due to circumstance I have wound up with two mowers with these engines. One is a 27HP on a Ferris and the other is the 37HP fuel-injected horizontal on the Scag. I don't know if the larger engines are better or if Briggs and Stratton has improved that much in general but, I have to say I've been well satisfied so far. No issues at all for either engine. I don't really mow commercial but I have approximately 15-18 acres of yards that I mow regularly for myself, neighbors, and relatives. And a long mowing season here in the South. So, it's not like they haven't been used - just not abused. I try to take care of my equipment.
Nice video it help me out
Thanks appreciate the comment
How do you repair the reverse on your more
Been debating between the Turf tiger 2 vs the cheetah. Anyone that has either please give me your thoughts on the one you have. TIA
Lawn mower want crank and all lights on but one when trying to start
Stainless screen at the back pulley. Easy fix
what year is yours? I have a 2018 and nees to check these issues out
I havea 29hp furl inj.scagg the motor dies downalmost then picks up normal. Replaced fuel filter it acts as starving for fuel. What should line pressure be. Thanks
Mine was doing that it was a plugged muffler , it ended up cracking the heads, it got so hot . I had someone else running it ..took it to the dealer , they changed belts oils , plugs air filters , muffler everything , still didn't run they said it was the throttle body , I did a compression check and thought no it ain't, two cracked heads , I put new ones on it , she runs good again.. 26.5 hp efi kohler 2017 turf tiger 52"
Have you had a problem with the parking brake being loose? Is there anyway you can make a video about how to tighten it
Yes its in this video
I think i read that wrong you should be able to adjust it with the linkage that connects to the break pedal
How do I get the new design parking brakes? I have a 2019 tt2 with this issue
I dont think they have came out with one yet
i dont think the 37hp accommodates a stouter blade blade then the 31 or 27hp in the turf tiger 2 model
Have you had any luck with Scag?
Life hack::::::: just unscrew the Phillips on the intake manifold. And put your palm over the carburetor.. been running these forever... trust me.. takes 30 seconds
wow. i was thinking of buying one. sad that it had those problems for that much money.
Everything has its quirks
My 2008 love it.
I’d be covering that back with a screen so the rocks don’t get in there.
Good things to know. 334 Hours, its still a baby.
We are buying a new one. 19500
Did they offer the new brake yet?
I need to ask them i haven't got anything from them yet
@@connorklein6299 we've got 2 tiger IIs and I checked them and one had a loose bolt. We have 600 hours on them so we're lucky we didn't run into your situation lol. Gotta loctite them now
I was just at the dealer and he said to drill out the hole to 1/2 inch and use grade 8 bolts and double nut them, did it and its working fine so far.
My 2022 TT came with double locking flange nuts on these bolts
Don't run it out of gas, easy fix. 🤣
Young man please learn how to support your mower with jackstands proprtly.bDo not depend on the overhead hoist. Block the front wheels. Blow the chaff off the mower. My tiger 2800 hrs no problems like yours.
Ýýyy
I got a 2024. 61 inch cut. 40 hp vanguard
