Thanks to this Thread I was able to repair the LT180 I just bought at an auction. All was good until about 30 minutes of mowing when the world stopped turning and the machine was barely moving. After reading all the info above I took a slightly different approach to remedy the slow trans-axle condition. Taking the least aggressive path, I was curious if just a fluid change would make a difference, I decided to jack the rear end up and pop a couple drain holes into the Axle cast housing where Tuff-Torq suggests. Here is a Link https://www.tufftorqservices.com/EnvEEdefault/FlatHTML/TechInfo/ttcoil/pdfs/K46%20Drain%20Port%20Location.pdf I used a 1/8 stubby drill as not to injure any interior components, both holes drained over night. I then added 2 self tapping screws 1/2 inch long with a neoprene washer. Without the deck on the machine I was able to reach under the frame and pop the fill hole cover off using a stubby flat screwdriver. I cleaned up the magnet and filled the unit. 24 inches of 3/8 clear tubing and a small funnel allowed me to add back the 2 quarts of cheap 10-30 oil for my test. Popped the magnet and cap back in place and DONE! I am pleased that the result was success, the machine runs very well without growling and slowing after 30 minutes of use. My intention is to replace the 2 small drain holes with real drain plugs after about 5 hours of use and refill the unit with synthetic oil for hopefully many more years of use. Happy Mowing!!

You might call the Natural Gardener. They have had that info posted when they sold their fruit trees last year so they possibly have access to that info this year.. I saw fruit trees out on the grounds in their spring fruit tree blits when I was there day before yesterday. I didn't walk down to the area and read it this year but last year, I was amazed how different places were in the amount of average chill hours around town. I don't think we had hardly any chill hours this year.

do you mean the pdf is on your computer somewhere and you need to locate it, or do you mean you need to locate the pdf manual for the item you bought somewhere on the internet, need to know the website to find it at? If you need the website go to google and in the search box enter the model number and search for it or go to the manufacturers website and look there. It will show it is a pdf file, just right click on it and save it to your computer then be sure you again right click on it and scan it with your antivirus and antimalware programs before you open it.

I've had similar frustration in trying to figure out what is happening with the Master Chef settings while cooking and how to use them effectively. This is especially true with bread baking, because Master Chef seems to include some proofing time in the oven but you can't tell how long the cycle is in the oven or how much proofing is needed before putting it in the oven. Imagine my surprise when I came across this Miele USA *convection* oven bread recipe book, which has recipes that tie to each of the Master Chef Plus settings for their convection oven: https://us.mieleusa.com/pdf/brochures/MasterChef_Plus_Recipe_Book.PDF. It would be so useful if they could produce something similar for the Combi Steam oven that tied to the Master Chef selections listed there.
