A while back the discussion was how to keep mower decks clean. Mine are always full after each mowing. I took the decks off both mowers( JD LX176 & LX 188), cleaned them good, power washed, painted them yellow and then painted them with slip-plate (graphite paint). Mowed the yard yesterday, didn't help at all. Still had 3 scoop shovels of dirt and grass from under the deck. It might help if I had a good stand of grass, but I've been trying for 10 years and I still can't get a decent yard to grow. Mostly sand and weeds. Someone said he only mows when the grass is dry. I don't know where he lives, but around here, you can mow in the middle of the afternoon, 90°, no rain for 3 weeks, grass is wilting from the heat and it still sticks under the decks. I took a piece of pipe and drilled 4 holes in it, hooked it to the hose, park mower over it and run the water with the deck engaged and it gets a little bit off, still not clean enough. Looks like I'm stuck scraping under the deck each time I mow. Chris

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
