Does the charger come with the mower or do you have to buy it separately? Thanks
@JamesADoty
@JamesADoty Ай бұрын
That is a very good question. The mower comes complete with two 80 volt batteries, the charger, a chute plug, and a handful of tools. All you have to do when you get the mower is uncrate it, put air in the tires, install the batteries and charge them, bolt on the sheering wheel, and bolt on the seat. The whole process takes only an hour or two.

@JamesADoty
@JamesADoty Ай бұрын
I never measured them, but the charging cable has to be at least six feet long, and the AC cord is also at least six feet long. I have my charger on a table on the right hand side of my carport, the AC cable easily reaches an outlet nearby that's at least six feet in the air. The charging cable reaches across my ten foot wide carport to the charger jack on the mower which is part on the left side of my carport with its back facing the ride side of the carport. Cable length shouldn't be an issue for most people. This is my second season with this mower and it's still brilliant.

I kept it, it's still pretty cool. I also got the charging base for it and it's supposed to seek out the charging base and charge as needed. I haven't run any firmware updates since the day I got it, and really should. Who knows, maybe it got better? A couple of weeks ago I got bored and charged the batteries and let it wander around the house. It found my washing machine and was holding a weird conversation with it while my dog nervously watched from a distance. It was funny.

There should be an RCA jack next to the two twin lead jacks.

If you look at the back of the console, there's a jack for power sort of in the middle, to the right of that is the RCA jack, and on the right are the twin lead jacks.

I don't think my audio was very good, it's not just your ears. I'm fairly quickly out of breath too, I don't get near enough exercise. My Bafang BBS02 is cadence sensing, I've read that torque sensing is better but honestly cadence sensing is working pretty well for me. I wanted to keep my handcycle legal so I opted not to install the Bafang BBSHD which has torque sensing, the motor is rated at 1,000 watts though and isn't allowed for on road use in Washington State. I saw a professional hand cycle rider in a race using 180 degree cranks, he wasn't doing well. I think it's better having the cranks lined up. Speaking of cranks, I wonder if anyone makes counter balanced cranks. When my arms get tired it gets tough to pull the cranks back up from their bottom position. At the very least I should look up light weight cranks. I'm having real trouble with cross slopes due to the way roads are crowned, as it seen in the video. More practice will help. Over the winter I'll buy a new set of tires and tubes for spring.

Yesterday a buddy of mine and I moved the foot rests to the top of the frame. I have a temporary bolt holding them on. I bought a proper bolt yesterday but haven't had time to swap them out. We also worked out my battery mount issue, it was user error on my part. My buddy brought his bike when he came over and we went for a 1.8 mile ride. My buddy's in his early 50s, I'm 63 and he hadn't ridden in three years, so 1.8 miles was the best we could do, he was getting pretty sore, and I was starting to get tired, but holding my own very well. Sorry, I don't have a fresh video, I'd like to get a friend to video the handcycle in action before the weather gets bad, if that happens, I'll post the video. At any rate I've now put small number of miles on the handcycle, the battery is still showing 100% and I'm really happy with my work to date. I have a temporary knobby tire on the left rear, I need to buy three new tires and tubes and change them out, my other two tires are in poor condition. I'll probably wait until fall since once the rains start here it'll be too cold and wet to ride again until May.

I take flats to the local bike shop. The back wheels use a push button to remove so getting them off is extremely easy. the front will be a pain since the chain tensioner will have to be loosened and the gear selector cable will have to be removed, then the nuts and other hardware. My handcycle is only 7 gears, which isn't enough gears. I could really use a "granny gear". That's why I installed the Bafang BBS02.

Today I got a chance to take my first real ride around my neighborhood. Something up front is rhythmically rubbing but from the seat I couldn't tell what. I'll look into it. I do need to do something about the foot rests, my legs are too short and my feet don't reach so I'm a bit unstable in the seat. The new arrangement makes it so I can't use the seatbelt, I need to correct that. I rode for 1.5 miles though and everything worked as they should, I had no issues at all. I was cruising around at about 10mph on occasion and really had a good time. I have to admit to a bit of panic though, I'm not used to being more than a few feet from my powerchair.

The handcycle works. The brakes don't though, I'm going to replace the brake cable and housing. Also I damaged the shifter cable. I don't know when I did but I suspect I got it tangled up and damaged it that way. So new shift cable and housing there too. I'm okay with that, I think I need to reroute the brake and shift cables anyway, the motor sort of interferes with their current placement.

Yesterday after work I installed a reflector on each of the back wheels. It took me an hour and a half to install them. My hands simply weren't strong enough to push the retaining clip into place. In the end I had to use a small c-clamp and carefully squeeze the clip into place. After I worked that out with the first reflector, it only took me a few minutes to mount the second reflector. The tricky bit was knowing how much was too much, I didn't want to crack the reflector and I didn't want the clip to come back off. Tonight I'm hoping to install the new shifter. I wonder how long that'll take me? My plan is to prop the front wheel up on the wheelchair lift on my bus to get it high enough to work on properly.
