EcoRenovator - View Single Post - Recycling old (2009) Electric 'push' Lawn mower

Here's the old one..

I would say that was slightly Damaged. Two corners gone and another cracked (pencil indicates)

Installed the new Insulator using the Sears power tool and it seems to only torque up to about 20 ft lbs.
So, I used a real torque tool and got it up to about 35 ft lbs. I'll re-torque it after a little mowing..

Regrettably, the other day, my wife had me mow the whole lawn with the gas mower.
And now I have to wait for the glass to grow back in!!
I've got to get another hobby.. There's nothing more boring than watching grass grow!!
