Triumph66 1,256 #1 Posted February 12, 2018 I had a couple of jobs today at a customer's garden and I thought I would give the 600 a brief workout especially since the head gasket and exhaust been replaced by my mate Chris a few days ago. It fired up first time this morning and was a lot quieter than of late. There was a dead Acer (Japanese maple) that needed to be removed. I pruned the branches off and mattacked the roots around the tree. I slipped on a rope around the tree and secured it to the hitch. The Bolens pulled it easily in first gear and took two attempts. Considering that it is a 6hp Bolens without diff lock I was pleased with what it could do. 6 Alan, Cub Cadet, HeadExam and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #3 Posted February 13, 2018 I like how you've borrowed the customer's washing line. The ground must be dry down there. Up here the wheels would have just spun. 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #4 Posted February 13, 2018 Around the River Dart the soil is very free draining as it consists of shale known as Dartmouth Shale. Also the Bolens has very good traction too..... Fortunately the washing line was not in use; hope she does not noticed that it is longer..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
