Mowed most of the four acre yard today, spread 400 lbs. fertilize as it's supposed to rain the next couple of days. Nice buds on fruit trees. Snow showers tomorrow night?

Its got a driveshaft?

Yep. The attachments are shaft driven by a belt from the engine which goes to a PTO shaft mounted under the tractor. It's like a miniature farm tractor PTO. Same set up with the transaxle and has an automotive style clutch too.

I never knew that such an animal exists!

javert, check out the old Sears Suburbans they also had those driveshafts. Built them good in the old days!!!

One thing I never understood is it's advertised as 10hp but the engine is really 8-1/4hp. It's a bit underpowered with the tiller when busting harder ground but always gets the job done and has been a workhorse. The locking differential is great too.

Is that exhaust new? Gnarly beast she is!

Here's a better shot in the sun. Red knob on the hub is the differential lock.
