    Bush hog won?t spin full power

    Worked on it this weekend. I took the roll pin out for the orc and jammed it back in but not all the way to make the orc a regular adapter. I know it s not safe this way but it helped me figure out it was the orc. Something must be wrong with the internals of it because I cut a couple acres down...

    Re: Bush hog won?t spin full power

    Yes it was cutting fine then all of a sudden it seemed to seize up. The shaft looked like it was trying to spin but wouldn?t budge. Then it started to spin but just not a full 540 rpm spin. Like something was preventing jt

    Bushog won't spin at full power

    Hey everyone question about my rotary cutter and could use some troubleshooting advice. I posted a video of what?s happening. I have a Ford 8n with a 5ft hardee cutter and orc. It ran fine for about half an hour or so but then the shaft quit spinning so I lifted it up and down a few times...

    Bush hog won?t spin full power

    Thanks for posting. If you look under "classic view" you can see the video I uploaded. This model is older it does not have a shear pini but it does have a slip clutch.

    8N died after 2 passes with bushhog

    I checked the fuel and spark as fast as I could the 8N toolbox is only so big. My line wrench was in the barn as well as my voltimeter and spark plug socket. I am saying that it took 45 minutes before it started up not that it took 45 minutes for me to check it. Does the pto always spin at 540...

    ORC holes won't line up

    Boom! Finally got it on. I honestly am not sure how I did it I think I just got lucky doubt I could do it again and it may never come off so hopefully the new seal lasts a long time. I used 40 grit sandpaper to grind off a little and then I just messed around with it until 2 of the inner holes...
