I just mowed a strip just that size with my John Deere E-100 it was a good foot and a half over the top of the mower. And now it's about a half inch tall.
I have a friend who owns a John Deere E-100 and i have a Craftsman DLT-3000. We both mow the islands and the grass on each side in the front of our neighborhood,I mow the left side and he mows the right side.
I’ve got one of these mowers, 19.5 turbo cooled Briggs. Had it for over 20 years. I’ve since replaced it with two Kubota diesels. But I still mow some with this old mower. Well worth the 400 bucks I gave for it used, all those years ago, it also came with a lawn sweeper
That one weed didn't want to be hacked. That reminded me of once while I was brushing my hair and one hair wouldn't stay down only to find out the hair was growing out of the side of my ear. Kudos to you and the man who donated the rider mower for a good cause.
I have 6 of these mowers for a reason. I used mine today clearing a property that hadnt been touched in years. Running into 8 foot bushes is fun and painful. I need to finish putting back together my brush lt1000 that has the craftsman brush guard and lift on it.
Did this to an Acre of meadow last night. Got it cut once. Took almost 3 hrs and tank and a half of fuel. POULIN PRO. Pretty much the same as that old craftsman.. 17.5 🐎 . Bogged down once at the start. 90 degrees today. I'll cut it in the heat. That should stunt it for a bit Great Vlog. !
Very nice job, especially with the free Craftsman tractor! My next door neighbor doesn't mow lawns like I'm doing, but he has a side hustle "flipping" tractors and a walk-behind mower now and then. This looks like a Craftsman tractor he had. I'll see what he brings in this season and if he gets another Craftsman like this one, perhaps we might be able to help you identify the model of your Craftsman.
Hey Dan I've tried the 80thousand weed eater line I went through that string like in no time so the weed eater string keeps on breaking every time I cut thick and tall grass don't get me rong I like the 80 thousands trimmer line but the trimmer line keeps on breaking every time I weed eat with that string so every time I get that trimmer line and use it the trimmer line just don't hold up so good like the other ones do
Could be the brand you are using! You see it working here in these vids. I didn't use half a head on the front and back yard clean up vids I just posted 8/2022. Maybe try what I recommend and see if you like it
I know there was some grass in there, but those tall weed shoots are murder to cut!! After that first pass I figured three more, but I didn't count!! Keep the vids a comin!!
I do this in a large section of my own back yard every year, but I have a pattern and never blow the majority of the cut grass form the chute into what I haven't mowed yet. I have owned a dozen lawn tractors over the years, and they would ALL do this without problem, just make sure to walk it before hand to make sure there isn't anything big laying around to bend a blade, and sharpen the blades every so often.
That old mower is doing pretty good...I got a old John bear riding mower I’m keeping for jobs like that wen I start my business keep my good mower out of the crazy stuff..
You do a good job Dan. I amazed I was doing a lawn like that on my lawn tractor 38" And I smoked the belt the deck started shaken The blades on that Craftsman 42" mower must be realy good I have learned from you, the trick with long grass is patience, walk it first, as no telling what hidden under that long grass. use if you can use the Edger on the out side first them mow the centre but if you cant like this one Mow slowly on a the highest deck setting.And just keep going over it
So much for the 1/3 rule... Back in July, I did a job like that with a LT2000 and it polished the gator blades LOL! I had to cut the grass like 3x and when I was done, I looked like a Lobster. Overgrown property is hard on the equipment and just not worth the time invested because some people are too cheap to have the work done on a reasonable schedule.
Dan 4.02 made me laugh I wasn't expecting you to mow down the small bush! Great job and I'm guessing one you wouldn't have been able to do without the sit down tractor as the grass was way too long for your Honda. Also I would have been apprehensive as to what snakes may have been lurking in that jungle. Keep the videos coming you inspire so many people with your dedication to helping others
I did and I noticed that as well and it seems like what is happening is when the blades are not working hard the engine kind of relaxes a little but then when you start cutting some thicker stuff you hear the engine dig in and increase RPMs… Almost like it’s meant to do that to save fuel or something but I don’t think so
I use Gator trimmer line from Big blue store in Kinston North Carolina love that store I can get all of my weed eater string their for like $2.00 and some change I can get 80 thousands of 090 thousands or thicker trimmer line but 80 thousands and 095 thousands is the closest I can get for cutting thicker grass or taller grass or weeds
I've got a rider and what I did to keep the side shoot up is to drill a hole in it then took a bungee cord put it in the hole and the other end attached it to the lever that raises the deck, it's a lot easier doing it that way instead of holding it with one hand and driving with the other. Larry
My elderly parents used to mow 10+ acres with this same mower in similar condition grass took many hours per cut .....mower is at least 20 years old keeps going.....
Hi, looking into used lawn tractors. Is the LT1000 stock? Is sharpening the blades pretty straightforward? I need to do a 1/4 acre that's overgrown to that height. Cool video
Im 39 and I'm about to jump in to the business. I can't afford a zero turn or a riding mower at the time. I'm going to have to start off at the very bottom with a push mower. Not ideal but its my only option right now.
Dan please drill a hole in the grass flap and put a bungee cord on it so it will stay up don't want to see u lose any fingers keep up the these great videos
Hi Dan, Been a older model ( 2000 regent 500) simplicity regent owner. Love the striping, hate that i cant get past 3.25 cut on it. Picked up a like new 2005 16hp intek iron sleeve 42 cut LT 1000 for 200. It looks like it just rolled out of the store. Seller was an retiree moving to florida. I measured the deck at highest point around 3.75. Whats the highest i can get these decks? Thanks. Ps, great vid!
@@DansVlog Thanks Dan. I got it to 4.25 with the 18" tires. Ordered some 20x10's ...hopefully that will give it 4.5 or more. Id be happy with 4.5 though. The more I toy with this thing, the more I like it. Going to sell my Regent.
Hey Dan, just thinking about you. So I was washing my car with your typical wax wash solution. Then crossed my mind. What if you replace the bleach + dish washing detergent with bleach and car wax wash solution? The car wax wash solution leaves a nice gloss and thought well what the heck, could be a video you'd like to try out and experiment?
Today I used the bleach + dish washing detergent formula on my congregated iron fence and unfortunately was a fail. Worked awesome on the house cladding. I had to use a hard brush on the congregated iron fence to loosen up the algae then rinse with a hose. The car wax wash solution worked great as well just on its own. Interesting with the UV protection, would be great for us Kiwis, we have the worst Ozone in the world!
Dan because you do not talk to the county at least contribute to your charity for your being facilitating the work that should be doing the county would be the most fair to you even if you do it from your heart and by your own sadifacion you are excellent human being
Before I cut any property, I will do a walk threw inspection an feel for any hidden obstructions. Don’t need bent blade damage or other when a look see first just takes a few minutes especially if it’s a unfamiliar property!!!
I am going on 69 years old, and I have 2 yards that I cut,both are not able to cut their on grass. I've just got started doing it. I got my second yard just this afternoon
I had one of these plenty of power mowing tall grass is easy. The problem is these tractors have no stamina. Had mine 5 years and in 5 years sears had to replace transaxle twice and it went out the third time when i junked it. I mow close to 4 acres of ground some of it hillside. Tall grass easy caring for large acreage not so much they just dont hold up.
@@DansVlog i have to have a heavy duty tractor as it gets used practically every day. The Craftsman 1,000 is designed for yards from 1 to 2 acres according to their spec. Also they are designated as a lawn tractor not a garden tractor. All Garden tractors have a GT designation or LGT for light garden tractor. They usually have a design rating in specs for 3 plus acres. They are much heavier in the frame and have cast iron transaxle cases. These are things i learned after trashing my new craftsman 1,000 in 5 years. With the trouble i had at least Sears was honest and explained to me what i just wrote. My next tractor was a troy built Big Red Horse GT and must say pretty darn good tractor after 8 years of trouble free hard work the deck is worn clear out but the rest of the tractor is still purring. Still runs my box blade, plow and discs and my garden spreader. Its a shame cant buy new deck for it which sucks. Bottom line up too 2 acres of just grass cutting and lite pulling a lawn tractor will do nicely. But 3 acres or more along with ground work better be sure it has a GT designation.
@@DansVlog very true i just thought this is information that you should pass on to your subscribers as it seems to be a popular subject on your channel. Other wise it could be misleading to some to go purchase the wrong tractor for their needs. That was a mistake i made before i had the knowledge needed. I was glad the sales rep for Sears actually shared that knowledge with me. It isnt something they normally do because they are th here to sell machines.
Dan don’t use the clutch as a break .. use the stick to stop if you keep using the clutch as a break you’ll wear the belt down .. trust me I’ve been doing that and I had to get a new belt it got to then
I've been wanting to upgrade to a 4gpm pressure washer and was saving money to get one like yours. I looked at cheaper models with Honda engines and found Lowe's had one with a GX270 and a Triplex pump that has great reviews for $899. It has the Husqvarna name on it. I was tempted to put it on a Lowe's credit card and buy it just so I can expand my hustle a bit earlier. I decided to think about it over the weekend. Then I found the exact same unit on Craigslist from a guy who goes around and buys returns from Lowe's and fixes them up and resells them. He was asking $700 last week, then dropped it to $650 on Tuesday. I decided to offer him the $580 I had saved toward buying the set-up you've got and he took it. He said there was nothing wrong with this one when he brought it home and tested it. He thinks they bought it for a project then returned it to get their money back, which is common. He said the other common problem was people using shitty gas without adding Sta-bil. Most the time he just cleans the carb and fuel line and adds good gas and they start right up. Anyway, I'm super stoked about getting a $900 unit for $580 and about $20 in gas to drive the 3 hour round trip to get it. Now I can reach out to do more and faster than I was with my little 2.3gpm I bought to get started. After I got home I got a call for a house wash, driveway and sidewalk cleaning to do on Sunday. I'd say it was an excellent day yesterday.
I’d say I have to agree with you and please let us know how it works out Sunday. Wait till I do another pressure wash video and comment on that one so it’s new and everyone will see it
I would walked it with that sthil brush cutter,then got it lower enough where i can see,then raise my deck up,then knock it down,making a few passes,blowing that clipping in the woods
Who the fuck is going to let weeds growing the thickness of baby trees continue to grow when the area is cleared by the nice dumbass fucking bush hog that levels this area every 3 or 4 nice dumbass fucking months. Fuckin' nice dumbass fucking douche
Nothing relaxes me more than mowing grass. And helping people that can't do it any more
Nice to see someone cutting tall grass (and a bush) with equipment that regular Joe's like the rest of us have available. Nice job.
Thank you

Surprisingly it did a fantastic job even with blades duller then a butter knife

Greetings from New Zealand. I love your videos, I find them entertaining and educational.Keep up the great work!

Might have been one of those cross-blade missions. :-) That's some brave mowing right there!
Seeing tall grass/weeds getting nocked down is always satisfying
Great Vid! As a new guy in the game, I’ve learned a lot watching your vlog!
That’s great! Thanks for watching
Dan the man with free tractor at hand. Got to love it! Good job buddy!
Thank you
There goes those blades !!
Those blades were already gone
They needed sharpened before he did it .. lol
i used to ride on a old huskee garden tractor i called her big red what a beast of a mower
Holy cow, Dan! That old Craftsman is a beast! It didn’t bog down much mowing 5ft tall grass. Not bad for a 20+ year old machine. Awesome!
Agree but thats not 5ft tall
Did this to an Acre of meadow last night. Got it cut once. Took almost 3 hrs and tank and a half of fuel. POULIN PRO. Pretty much the same as that old craftsman.. 17.5 🐎 . Bogged down once at the start.
90 degrees today. I'll cut it in the heat. That should stunt it for a bit

How do you get it to mow going in reverse? Mine shuts off if the blades are engaged while trying to reverse. Thanks..
I know there was some grass in there, but those tall weed shoots are murder to cut!! After that first pass I figured three more, but I didn't count!! Keep the vids a comin!!

Looking good Dan. Keep up the good work.

Nothing like the ol’ LT1000! I have one that I bought new in 2005 and it is still on the original deck belt...and it is a very heavily used mower.
Nice work. Keep up the great job on the yards !!
Thank you Luke!
That’s a snazzy lawn tractor you’ve got there!
Donated!!
That old mower is doing pretty good...I got a old John bear riding mower I’m keeping for jobs like that wen I start my business keep my good mower out of the crazy stuff..
I agree, I would hate to of put my new Honda push mower in that mess. One small tree stump and next thing you know you bend your crank
Now I want a riding lawn mower!
Heck ya!!
Lol that ole Hammer head of a mower got the job done!!! Dan you a beast lol
Naw... the mower’s the beast! I just make it look good!! Lol
Dan on your Craftsman LT1000 when you increase your engine speed do your blades spin the same speed or faster
Tallgrass,good work job, lawn mower, dan

Thank you! I like to clown around sometimes LOL
Love lawn mowers video,youtube video,dan ,newbrunswick
But I like the way the 80 thousands trimmer line cuts tall grass down and thick grass to as well
It's like a knife cause it is thin
I like that you played the phone message. 😂😂

I'm wondering did you have the throttle up in the fast position the whole time cause it seems like it was down a little
I did and I noticed that as well and it seems like what is happening is when the blades are not working hard the engine kind of relaxes a little but then when you start cutting some thicker stuff you hear the engine dig in and increase RPMs… Almost like it’s meant to do that to save fuel or something but I don’t think so

Exactly the way I do it !!
that is the way mine is set up too...it really helps
Sharpen your blades much?
Yup!! lol
Are you using stock blades?
what is a good used mower to look for on criagslist?
Whatever you can afford!
My elderly parents used to mow 10+ acres with this same mower in similar condition grass took many hours per cut .....mower is at least 20 years old keeps going.....
Wow!
Hi, looking into used lawn tractors. Is the LT1000 stock?
Is sharpening the blades pretty straightforward?
I need to do a 1/4 acre that's overgrown to that height.
Cool video
I luv this !!!
Man Dan tht mower is sweet..cuts great.. sharpen the blades after tht tall grass. But man tht baby cuts great..great job...👍👍 luv the video's
I don’t think those blades of been sharpened in many years!
How many hp is that?
Wow tall grass that lawn tractor cut it good
Thank You Jorma!
Your welcome Dan well i did 2 full size corner lots just using a push mower 22” all wheel drive mower
your blades at the highest setting?
They are except at one point where I specify I forgot to raise the deck after fixing the belt. I have since leveled the deck higher
Dan's Vlog hope you still use the tractor
How much do charge for something like that? $
I’ll probably just have her throw in an extra 20 on her lawn cut
Im 39 and I'm about to jump in to the business. I can't afford a zero turn or a riding mower at the time. I'm going to have to start off at the very bottom with a push mower. Not ideal but its my only option right now.
I just did 6 lawns today with my push type mower. It can be done and it can be profitable.
Dan please drill a hole in the grass flap and put a bungee cord on it so it will stay up don't want to see u lose any fingers keep up the these great videos
Why does the flap need to be held up? I’m curious, we never lift the flat unless we need to pass through an arbor and it’s less than 1600mm wide.
The grass sprays further so it spreads clumps better...
Dan, what type of push mower do you prefer Brand wise? Craftsman or Troy-Bilt?
Same mowers. Troy bilt,Craftsman, MTD are interchangeable.
@@DansVlog I did not know they were. Thank you!
"what height you set to?"

Rough on the little fella but hey getting it done

Awesome
Are those the "Standard Mow/Mulch Blades", or do you use the Yellow "Gators"?
I need to get another LT1000, mine was Taken... :-(
My T2400 would have fun chewing that mess up it’s blades would probably sound like that afterwards though lol

Anyway, I'm super stoked about getting a $900 unit for $580 and about $20 in gas to drive the 3 hour round trip to get it. Now I can reach out to do more and faster than I was with my little 2.3gpm I bought to get started. After I got home I got a call for a house wash, driveway and sidewalk cleaning to do on Sunday. I'd say it was an excellent day yesterday.
I’d say I have to agree with you and please let us know how it works out Sunday. Wait till I do another pressure wash video and comment on that one so it’s new and everyone will see it
No speed,edits?
I would walked it with that sthil brush cutter,then got it lower enough where i can see,then raise my deck up,then knock it down,making a few passes,blowing that clipping in the woods
If I did all that the title wouldn’t make sense...
Ok Dan. I missed something. What happened to the Gravely. Sorry if I missed it
Paul Biel I just asked him the same thing the other day he sold it back in 2016
why cut down small trees by the way?
Cause they are in the way
Yeah, nice dumbass fucking answer by the way!!!
Who the fuck is going to let weeds growing the thickness of baby trees continue to grow when the area is cleared by the nice dumbass fucking bush hog that levels this area every 3 or 4 nice dumbass fucking months. Fuckin' nice dumbass fucking douche
You need a brush hog for that property
John S That is exactly what normally cuts back here! The county brush hogs usually pass thru every 3 months
Makes short work of that mess with the bad boy tractor.
It sure did! Could you imagine me trying to get through that with my old Troy built or my new Honda push mower!
I think you mean 33 thousand subs
Lol ooops my bad
The county or city shouldn't of let get that bad that's really rough
