That is an Mx

très belle tondeuse! c'est cool de voir une ancienne machine en aussi bon état👍 bravo à vous

Isn't your foot bar upside down? The ends should point up to keep your feet from slipping off. At least that's what I remember from driving my grandfather's back in the mid 60s.

The steering wheel on my truck is off to the left too.

S-L-O-W

Whats retail on these?

What would be better hauling logs in tight woods?

I saw in the other video Economy tractor jumping like a wild bronco. Now I know what caused that after you mentioned the sensitivity of its clutch.

That mower will last forever!

I have the same one from my late grandfather. The right cable has been seized since I’ve had it. Is it the throttle?

Great Bolens, enjoy!

😂

Hold on to that thing. They're getting more and more hard to find

Front tires can be switched out with wheelhorse rears . Bolt right up, wider stance but still lines with rears. Been on my 2414 8 years. Never flat.😂

Very kool. Needed to see a side view. Good Luck, Rick

Very nice setup. Good Luck, Rick

Harley exhaust. Lol

Very cool, looks like a lot of fun.

Will you be doing a video on how you clean and maintain so amazingly

I like cummins better

Very nice machines. I still prefer the older gear drive for working tractors. Now for mowing, id take hydro all they time.

Ive watched quit a few videos comparing these two trucks and i gotta say this is by far the best video made. Just an honest guy, comparing and reslly describing the diffrerences between the two trucks. Ive been looking at buying one or the other. Both have pros and cons. Looks like it's going to come down to driving them

Quite a few modern tractors still using electric clutches. That is called an independent PTO. Those are nice but I prefer the two-stage clutches. That's what I grew up on and they are fantastic for me. The other type is the direct transmission driven PTOs like a lot of the early tractors had. They start and stop the OTO as you start and stop the transmission. Many PTO powered attachments work better if they are engaged or disengaged independently from the transmission so they can keep running whenever you push on the clutch. Be very careful if you ever drive an old tractor that has a transmission driven PTO because when you're mowing with the bush hog you cannot stop very fast unless you take the PTO or transmission out of gear before you push on the brake. The inertia of the bush hog will keep pushing the tractor forward until it gradually slows down and stops. I love two-stage glitches because it's the best of both worlds. It works just like an independent PTO when you want it to. You can engage the transmission and the PTO at the same time give it a little throttle it up on the clutch and go. And if you need to start the PTO attachment first just let halfway up on the clutch and the PTO goes and then let the rest of the way up and the transmission is engaged. This works really well for rototilling and bush hogging and running a hay baler and many other attachments. You don't have to double clutch to get both things going. Otherwise with the transmission powered PTO you have to engage the PTO with the transmission in neutral and let the clutch up and get the PTO going and then quickly push the clutch back down and put the transmission in gear and let it back up to go otherwise in some situations if you try to start the PTO and the transmission at the same time you'll kill the engine. Likewise if you're trying to mow every time you have to use the clutch to change directions the mower slows down and when you let the clutch back up you have to wait for that to pick up speed again. So again with two-stage clutch all you have to do is push it halfway down to change gears or direction while the PTO keeps going full speed.

It sounds like you're not used to driving a clutch tractor or anything with a clutch. For people that are used to clutches, they often prefer them over automatics or hydrostatics. I grew up driving lots of clutch trucks, tractors, cars, etc. I feel a lot more comfortable feathering a clutch instead of a hydrostatic control lever. But that Bolens looks like a nice trctor. Oh my gosh, you have a rollover scraper. I love those! My dad had a 7 ft wide one on his Massey Ferguson that I used growing up. His look like it was made back in the forties and they were built a lot better than they are now.

Don't work about what other people say. If it works for you. That's what matters. You have a very nice machine there. Your making it yours. Plus you are saving old iron. I may get one some day. Keep up the great work Sir. Plus you have memories of that actual tractor. That makes it that much better.

That looked fun

Ive got a Honda hr214 in great condition as well.Those hondas are best ever made. Greetings from Poland

Have you been able to find an owners manual for it? I’ve been looking around without any luck.

HOPEI find me one in the future . Nice job fella too.

Makes me think Sheldon got a tractor. That would be from The Big Bang

One of the best model made

Which tractor do you like the best Auston ??? I know I like the snow ???

very cool

Does eitjer of the bolems have power steering. They seem to steer awfukk easy with a load on them, also jow is loader and nelly noade hooked up

The Speedway is a beast, but the hood on the Lawn King is too dang cool 👍

Love the large frame Bolen's. I wouldn't mind having a tractor like the Bolen especially with the front end loader. Its one incredible tractor.

Is the economy power king belt or shaft driven?

I like the Commercial mower you have there. The chrome handles and braces and the engine cowlings definitely say 1980s to 1990s. It also has steel wheels. The new ones (mine happens to be a 2021) has NeXite wheels (the same stuff that Honda uses as the deck material on the HRX series) hydrostatic transaxle and does look similar to yours. I grew up with an HR214SX and it's a fantastic machine as well. My parents bought it in Spring of 1985, two months before I was born in June and it mowed the hills of our property out in the country. I learned to mow with that mower and used it up to the age of 18 when the carburetor became too expensive to repair. Five years later I pulled it out, cleaned the carb and it ran for another two to three seasons and then I sold it for scrap. I've had Honda HRA214SX mowers, another HR214SX that I bought used for $25, used for a few years and now I want to repair it and sell it since now I own an HRX217HYC and the commercial HRC2163HXC I mentioned earlier. The HR214 was a quiet machine, probably due to the cast aluminum deck and I know of someone in my town that owns an aluminum deck HRC215 as well.

They are very cool machines and they run really well

That is a very cool tractor and it appears to work great with the tiller. Great video, thanks

Perfect crawl speed for tilling 👍

I got a Poer King and a 67 Bolens But my Bolens isnt a hydro and it has a Winscon engine it putt putt also.

Used to watch the landscapers trot accross lawns. Its almost like they had the self propeller gear turned up to 10. It was awesome. Especially when they kicked that lever over from idle🥴🤤 lile musc to my lil 6 year old ears. Great times.

I still have the same one back in the 90’s But yours looks cleaner than mine

Where did you buy that front loader from

Looking at a power king with mowing deck, snow plow and garden plow. They want $2,500. Is that a good deal or should I offer lower?

These Power King tractors are very well built tractors. I have two of trem and they are extremly reliable, well built tractors, I love them very, very much.

Neither look like they've done a day of work in their life! Great job keeping them in tip-top shape

The mid mount plough worked great on the snow, I have never seen one on a LF before. A Bolens large frame is the best fun you can have in the snow
