johndeere, That's pretty impressive that you have all that stuff in a 120 sqft shed. I just got mine a month ago so I'm still filling it up. Right now I have my JD225, the 30" tiller, 10 cu ft cart, 175lb spreader, 7 bushel bagger, dozer blade, table saw (that can probably go back to my garage), Karcher/Honda 3000psi pressure washer, 21" Craftsman/Honda push mower, Husqvarna 455 Rancher w/20" bar, Husqvarna 323 trimmer with manual feed head (I hate those bump feed jobs), shovels, axes, rakes, loppers, a fiberglass-handled Vaughn claw hammer, two bags of Quickrete, a half bag of 10-10-10, and my John Deere licensed sprinkler that drives around the yard using the hose as a guide. I built a 4x10 loft in the back, 5' off the floor, which will soon shelve Rubbermaid bins of junk my wife says we need to keep for God knows what reason, currently taking up precious space in the frog (finished room over garage). And underneath that loft is 1,000 board feet of black cherry in 8' lengths neatly stacked with spacers to dry, awaiting some project down the road. I keep all my mechanics tools in the garage. Even though I have a deadbolt on the shed, I'd rather have the Craftsman rollaway and powertools in the garage. I don't think I can fit another tractor in there, but I definitely like the idea of building another garage so I can use my current garage for a workshop (without having to pull the vehicles out and then try not to get sawdust everywhere).

"My John Deere Service Department said to absolutely not oil the pre-filter Here is a copy/paste from a JD325 instrucion manual for 18hp Kawasaki powered 325. It is from the JD site. M96015 5. If precleaner (C) is dirty, remove it from paper element (E). 6. If paper element is excessively dirty, remove wing nut (D) and element (E). Replace it with a new element. IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! Dirt and debris can enter the engine through a damaged filter element: · Do not wash paper element. · Do not attempt to clean paper element by tapping against another object. · Do not use pressurized air to clean element. · Replace element only if it is very dirty, damaged or the seal is cracked. 7. If precleaner is dirty, clean it as follows: · Wash it in a solution of warm water and liquid detergent. DO NOT wash paper element. · Rinse precleaner. · Squeeze excess water from precleaner. · Allow precleaner to air dry. · Add approximately 30 ml (1 oz.) of clean engine oil to precleaner. · Squeeze precleaner to distribute oil evenly. 8. Install precleaner on paper element. 9. Install air cleaner cover and secure both cover latches. Install hood. Charles must have a different version, or something else has changed since then.

Thus far, the gators I put on my 48C deck on my LX277 have been disappointing. I don't have the mulch kit and I've tried to plug it up with a homemade block ... but either way, the cut has been very uneven ... and the center blade leaving a higher cut the the two side blades. I just rebalanced my deck last night and still the same lousy cut. I sharpened the blades and they are VERY sharp, but still a lousy cut. I cutt every spot twice and I'm fine, but I never had to redo spots with the stock blades. What am I doing wrong with these gator blades?
