Hey Guys,
Just got a new EV. This one is an Elec-Trak E-15, one of the bigger electric riding lawn mower / tractors, which could support all sorts of fun accessories.
This one came with a snowplow and the three-blade front-mount mower deck.
I already had an E-10 mower, but it was pretty beat up, had the smaller mid-mount deck, and no other accessories.
Overall, it's in pretty good condition for a 40 year old piece of outdoor equipment. One of the blades wasn't turning as freely as it should. I'm working on that one. The battery charger doesn't seem to work either, but the lift and drive motors are fine.
Of course it didn't come with any batteries, but it just put in 3 12V that I had kicking around. It's missing the key, so I've just been bypassing that for the moment with a jumper.
The blades wouldn't power on at first. I figured out that the PTO contactor was just sticking part way. I jiggled and lubricated it and it seems to work fine now.
Here's a video of me taking apart the blade motor.
