Hi Gang,
There's no better way to get your mower up and running than your current ICE mower taking an indefinite vacation.
Here's where i begin. I have 2 E15's and 1 E12M. The E12M went in reverse only when i bought it so i thought that would be the best candidate for getting running real quick. Well it turns out nothing works on it right now. But the one E15 "works". After dragging it out of the basement i flipped it on it's nose and filled the tranny up with new fluid. I read somewhere it takes 2 gallons so that's what i bought back in the fall, well i couldn't even fit 1 gallon in. Hummm maybe i read wrong. Well testing the system on it's nose i was able to get it to go in all gears forward and reverse. When i brought it down on all 4 tires i couldn't get it to move without maxing the amp meter out.
Well stupid me though removing the charger and toaster was all in the same back in the fall. So i just added the toaster back on. Can someone give me a brief rundown of what the toaster does? I remember someone saying it's there to deal with (insert electrical terms here) for the low speeds. Now it seems forward speeds all work great. But reverse just seems to put off a lot of heat in the toaster. I don't want to burn it out so I didn't push it more than trying 2 times for 1-2 seconds at most. For now i'll build up the mower deck as i await suggestions from the wise and all knowing council.
If anyone is in the Buffalo area and wants to come over to teach me a few things I'd be more than willing to let them.
Thanks for the help ahead of time,
Tim
