If you have the wiper cover > pieces, cutting your own felt is not a big deal. I do, they are all present and accounted for. And a copious supply of old, thick felt hats that have "lost their luster" with age. So I can solve that problem. Now if I could just get my rider to run on an nearly empty gas tank on a 5 degree side slope. So thats the 2nd trip out today, first was for a paper and a couple quarts of 5-30 synthetic because it was low on oil when I found a flat enough place to check it. Here in WV, flat, level ground you make with a dozer and a good operator. Otherwise grow a short leg on one side... Or a Mexican backhoe (I own several) but with my back it will be a small space at a time. > Jon > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >-------- _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
