I lately heard on the radio about a guy who up and unequivocal one day to clean his fireplace chimney with a 16-amount shotgun.
Although I didn’t cognizant of this man, I felt a growing connection with his ambitions. And admiration. Lots and lots of appreciation. After all, not everyone can spend a long day at the mill punching out bunches of metal gizmos, be brought up home that night, sit down, understand the paper, and as soon as The Lady of the House is momentarily distracted, reach down knowing inside himself for some creative chore solving.
Even more, reach down and find the inspiration to make happen: “Hey! It’s time to educate out the shotgun and kill the chimney.”
The experience that he finds enough right junk to do it with a rare 16-yardstick, well, that’s just frosting on the coagulate. For those of you who have never hunted chimney with a 16-gage, you should know that 16-gauges are utterly rare, kind of the Edsels of the shotgun smashing. Me? I’d have gone in there with the more common 12-determine. But not this guy.

Can anyone tell me how to remove the augers from a John Deere TS26 snowblower?
Jul 13, 2007 by Ed H | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I got the bearings removed from both ends, but don't know how to disengage the drive shaft to pull the auger/shaft assembly out in order to remove the augers.
Call your local John Deere House..in your area..do be careful of doing this yourself...Companys are making it harder due to safety issues. Sorry, cannot tell you..due to liability...

john deere 8 hp snowblower is broke.?
Feb 23, 2009 by Ryan S | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I have an 8 hp john deere snowblower, pretty old. my dad was using it today, started right up.. he put it in gear did a couple paths up and down the driveway. then it clunked a couple times and quit, smoked from the engine... did he blow the engine what is wrong..? i checked everything i could, oil seems fine, gas is fine, belts are fine.. im not sure but i need it fixed we are in the middle of a storm.. would be great if you could give me some help.. also when i pull the pull start it seems kind of lose, before it was harder to pull, had to pull it with two hands with your foot by the wheel so it wouldnt move, not i can pull it with one hand.... please help thanks
Based on the noise you heard and the lack of compression now, I would say that you broke the connecting rod or piston. The only way to tell for sure is to take the engine apart. You can remove the spark plug and shine a light in the hole while pulling the starter cord. You should see the piston moving up and down.

Jan 09, 2009 by sidd77 | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
hello,
i seem to be stuck installing the 42" snowblower on a jd x300.
the impasse is the linkage which raises and lowers the deck.
your suppose to pull back on the pedal so that it's position is all the way back, but no matter how much i finagle the pedal and lock it doesn't go beyond midway. there's suppose to be a big storm tomorrow and i could use the help.
thanks in advance.

If I remember correctly, you have a throttle control and a transmission, both have to be in neutral; not park, but neutral

snowblower?
Feb 15, 2007 by gogosox | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I bought a used John Deere TRS21 snowblower and it has manual as well as electric start the cord did not come with it. it looks like it will take a standard extension cord. Is this true?
Yes, I have one also. I have the factory lead which is like any heavy duty extension cord you can buy at any hardware store.

You can try it - if it's made for a 110v current, you probably won't hurt it.
Otherwise, take it to a John Deere dealer, and ask the expert. Then buy the cord there, to pay him for his services. But remember - Nothing Costs like a Deere.

A standard 3 prong extention cord will work. It doesn't take all that much current to operate the starter, but as always if you need a really long cord, you might consider getting one with heavier (lower) guage wire.
BTW - it isn't supposed to come with a cord. The idea is that after you forget and leave the cord out and chew it up with the snowblower, you can just get another cord.

42" Snow blower attachment for John Deere question about belts.?
Feb 22, 2007 by on02151blueline | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I have a 42" snowblower attachment for my John Deere L120 riding mower. I have downloaded the manual for the blower off the JD web site but the photos are of very poor quality. What I really need is someone to send me a pic of the proper belt routing for both the PTO belt and the V belt that goes to the jack shaft pully on the blower. I think I have it routed proper but there seems to be too much slack in it. I have the idler pully pulled as far as it will go and it just seems like the belt should be more taut. Thanks.
You need to talk to your local JD dealer. Most of the time the consumer info is only half there. Don't bother asking Lowe's or Home Depot. They just sell the equipment.
