grand dad always said if nothing nice to say dont say nothing at all...

I looked into these machines a while back trying to help someone with one. In all reality there's nothing wrong with them. Not a garden tractor but will probably mow the lawn alright.

The drive system is "AGS" and is essentially a gear drive except it only drives when you push the pedal in. When you drive it you ALWAYS have to have the go pedal all the way depressed, because if you try to use it like it's a hydrostatic pedal you'll wear the clutches and it won't work. IF you go and look at it, test the drive system a lot and make sure it drives in all gears. If it doesn't work in any one of the gears, or it won't drive at all, then the clutch is junk and it's not worth buying.

plan was for leaves only. not a reg mower every week with it.. thats what has me worried. if i seen right. it has a clutch plate for each gear. and unable to get them.. i might just walk away from it.. use a rake to pick the leaves up lol .

ty tho for respones ..
