Dixon ZTR 4515B Won't Start When Hydro Gear Belt is On
Dixon ZTR 4515B Won't Start When Hydro Gear Belt is On
I have a Dixon ZTR 4515B that I *think* is a 2001 model.
Has a new motor, belts, and idler pulleys.
It will not start when the hydro gear belt is connected, but if I take off this belt the engine fires up just fine. When the belt is connected it is hard to turn the engine by hand at a certain spot every time.
I tried spinning all of the parts when I removed the belt, and all of the pulleys seem to spin freely by hand. But wondering if the hydro gear fans should spin easily as well? They do spin around by hand, but it doesn't spin as easy as a pulley.
Any ideas?
suggest remove battery, take to qualified shop, run LOAD test. While battery is removed, use sandpaper or such to clean terminal connection surfaces at battery, frame, starter solenoid, starter, etc. (all connection points INCLUDING those to frame grounds in the starter circuit) to bright metal Do not just give surfaces a quick visual.. Re-install a known good charged battery, connect hydro gear belt and test starting function.
Good luck
if the new battery was load tested, fine. If not, it's a question mark. Those small batteries are somewhat notorious for having weak cells when "new".
Beyond that, you may have a draggiing starter or - if it's a Briggs - a need to do a valve adj procedure.
As far as the hydro fans go, yes, some drag. But, when you start the engine, depressing the clutch/brake should take that parasitic load off the starter during cranking...?
It has not been load tested.
I put in the new motor almost 2 years ago. Here is what I bought: Briggs & Stratton 540cc 331877-0036
It worked great for the first year, then started giving me these starting fits, but I was able to get it going by rotating the motor by hand and keep trying to start it.
I also thought it might need it's valves adjusted so I had my friend come over and adjust the valves as per the manual.
The battery is a year old and is 360cca I think, I also hooked up another battery via jumper cables with the same results. I put in a new starter, solenoid, and re-did all of the grounds, and ran new power wires.
You said: "But, when you start the engine, depressing the clutch/brake should take that parasitic load off the starter during cranking...?"
I don't have a clutch, only a parking brake, when the parking brake isn't set it will not even try to start, so the parking brake is on until I sit down and move the speed/steering controls.
Where do I go from here?
I appreciate the reply.
Well, hydrostatic drive belts are fully engaged all the time (unless you manually remove the belt like you have done) and even when the hydro is in neutral, there is usually a small load (of the charge pump) that may increase the effort required to spin the Briggs engine if the valves are not properly adjusted.
I don't know if your friend adjusted the valves correctly or not because I was not present.
I suspect that most people DO NOT adjust Briggs valves correctly the first time without having been given a proper interpretation of the Briggs instructions provided in their manuals.
Have seen so many threads on this forum where symptoms similar to yours have been discussed and it finally turned out that the valves had been fiddled with but never properly adjusted according to the PROPER procedure.
my bad.... "You said: "But, when you start the engine, depressing the clutch/brake should take that parasitic load off the starter during cranking...?" I was thinking of my hydro rider which does work that way - apparently your ZTR does not.
But, Mownie makes a solid point on just how finicky those briggs engines are when it comes to adjusting valves. Like him, have also seen numerous tales of woe on these boards about such.
Most times Walt would have offered his procedure by this time in a thread.
Maybe Walt is of a different opinion on this than me, or is busy with other things.
Anyhow, if you want my rather elaborate dissertation on the procedure, e-mail me.
I noticed that you did not put your e-mail address in your profile but you can find mine.
"Well, hydrostatic drive belts are fully engaged all the time "
Actually this Dixon Hydro drive does not have the drive belt fully engaged at all times, it has an idler system. The idler system has a safety switch on it that prevents the engine from starting unless the hydros are disengaged which is when the parking brake is set. In installing the new belt, you have managed some way to cause that safety switch to not function, that is where you need to look.
I think a Google search will find an exploded view of the parts and and Owner's Manual, if you do not have one, that should explain the adjustment and or operation of this mechanism.

Does your lighting finish match your hardware?
I will have stainless steel appliances, sink, brushed nickel hardware in my kitchen along with cherry cabinets, dark floors and cream/gray mix granite. Should I stick with Brushed Nickel tones for the lighting fixtures or can I do black tones? The black tones have more of a presence where as the Brushed Nickel ones kind of disappear. I am looking for a dining room fixture, two pendants over the peninsula, a foyer and hallway fixture. All fixtures can be seen from each other.
Thanks for any advice.
I certainly don't think they have to match. Homes are evolving, it doesn't have to look like you bought everything at the same time. I don't even think the lights finishes have to exactly match, but it's just easier for non-decorators to choose what goes with something, when everything matches. Most decorators mix it up a bit. Choose things you love.
Nope. Our kitchen right now has stainless appliances, brushed nickel hardware, and dark bronze light fixtures (well, one is red enamel and bronze). I tend to prefer a mix of metals as I think it makes a space look more personal.
My selections are similar to what bowbat has. We have stainless appliances, nickel hardware, and oil rubbed bronze fixtures.
Nope, it is more interesting to mix it up. Don't be afraid! We recently built and my husband was sure everything should match. I convinced him to let me do mixed hardware - ORB handles, chrome facuets, and copper pendant lights. Now he loves it. It gives the space more of a designer feel and less builder grade.
Ours is not all going to match. There will be two pendant lights over an island which are glass, but with the "oil-rubbed bronze" metal. The sink faucet is chrome, and it's looking as though cabinet hardware is going to be brushed nickel, though I have yet to pull the absolute final trigger on that.
I like a mix. Our old house had ORB cabinet hardware, stainless plumbing and glass with polished nickel fixtures. It looked great together and was one of the reasons that the new owners (our new friends) loved the kitchen.
This remodel will have PN, BN, and stainless. We're tying two rooms together and the FR has BN hardware where the kitchen will have PN with stainless appliances.
gothaml, I look forward to seeing your lighting! I'm betting it's going to look wonderful.
Ours will not, kinda. So we're going with a graphite (blackish charoalish) hardware, we have stainless door handles throughout the house, and our lighting we're trying for will be black. We have ss appliances too, and a brushed nickel/stainless faucet.

Maybe I'm being too passive here, but please leave me out of this.
I honestly have absolutely no idea why Sweatie and you are in a conflict. I'm sorry if I offended you, but that's because I don't understand what's going on.
If anything, I really liked Travis and I hoped he liked me too… :/
If Travis was offended by my "being passive" (??), you can tell him I apologize.

It would still show up in Google searches. I find ancient Dis threads on various Timeshares that way all the time.
don't worry too much. I never heard of your company before this thread and there are FAR FAR more positives in this thread then negatives. I knew there was something up from all the opposing opinions.
And now I've looked into your company and it sounds like something I will very much use in the future!
-A hippie who loves chickadees
Rick Bourne, Vacation Strategy LLC - rest assured even though you are only 'Earning Your Ears' as a new DisBoard member , your professional response and customer focused business model will get my business in the future.
The truth is out there..... Keep up the great work.
More certain than ever that we made a great choice booking thru VS for our NYE trip! Rick and Humaira, just remember that it is those of us who are happy customers that are answering questions around here. There are plenty of people that will be sincerely recommending you to inquiring minds.

Illuminations to the left, Wishes to the right
We had some issues with our rental experience through VS. Because we had such a long trip planned, we had 3 different owners points and 5 different reservations. We didn't have confirmation that we had a place to stay for our last 6 nights because the owners (NOT VS) were waiting until the last minute to transfer the reservation into our name. It was frustrating and nerve wracking and even though VS would reassure me on the phone that everything was okay, I didn't get a written confirmation or pay my final payment for those last few nights. Because we had never used them before, I just kept a dummy reservation somewhere else for the last 6 nights in case something fell through.
However, everything worked out and our reservation was secure for all 14 nights in the end. We got the reservation we paid for (and a killer view) and we saved tons of money by going through VS.
Even though it wasn't as smooth as I'd hoped, we'd use VS again. The savings was worth it, and everything worked out fine.
Thank you, Rick, for coming and posting on this thread.
You have a good, clear resoponse to the issue. I posted a while back on this thread that we had a great experience with your company in October.
I knew the OP was not giving all the correct info.
I would have no worries about losing business from this thread. Every other thread on your company has nothing but positive responses. We look forward to booking with you again on our next trip
This was my only interest! I was wondering if the person posting as VSLLC was ACTUALLY from VS LLC. Good to know you stepped in, Rick, and clarified that you weren't a troller messing with a thread. Great to know that you stand by your company as well. I have gotten a couple of quotes from your company and was very happy with the turnaround time.
That being said, it doesn't reduce my hope that OP gets other affordable accommodations soon enough for her trip to take place.
**I would mention that you are probably serving a very very wide customer base from all over the world, and that your website doesn't have any easy mention of booking within certain business hours in order to secure a reservation. As it's been a bit since I've gotten a quote from you, I don't know if this is something that is mentioned in an email - but it could be very very important if someone in California (or Hawaii) wanted to book but didn't realize that you had closed a few hours earlier. Seems like these days, ALL hours are "business hours" for a lot of businesses, so I personally wouldn't expect to have to put down a deposit at a certain time of day. **
I just wanted to "throw my hat into the ring" We returned from a 7 day trip last weekend and it was a dream vacation, we used VS, got a fantastic rate in a 1br presidential and are going to call them in the New Year to book our next trip. I have no personal ties to VS but wouldn't hesitate to recommend anyone to use them.
We wanted to thank everyone for their support and kind words over the last few days. We are amazed that people would take time out of their busy schedules to voice their opinions and support. Especially those who are not even our customers. Many Thanks
Rick & Humaira Bourne and the entire team at VS
You're welcome! Just keep doing a great job! (oh and make sure there is no problem with my reservation May 10th-20th).
I am apologizing for using the word scam. At the time and the way, I was treated on the phone when someone called from your company. Honestly yes, I thought that I had been scammed. I dont feel that you are scamming but your process has some kinks. I also feel that from reading your statement you have not been told the situation correctly. I will not go into further detail because I really want this too end. This whole situation could have been avoided if your employee did not hang the phone up on me. I was quoted a price paid my deposit then a phone call was made to me stating that the price was wrong. All I knew at the time was I had paid a deposit and now no reservation not to mention he told me that since it was so close to the date I would have to pay in full. Then the man told me the reservation had been cancelled and hung the phone up on me when I started to question the situation. I myself was very disappointed over how I was treated and how the transaction was handed and the way I was treated by the man on the phone. I was told it was because they quoted the wrong price. I do not feel now it was a fraud but at the time, I did and I apologize. How would you feel if you booked something over the internet, my credit card was charged? Now Im getting a phone call stating that they quoted the room wrong and needed full payment then when I was questioning why was told no forget the reservation and was hung up on?
Purchase Date: 11/28/12
Category: Hotels/Motels
This is from my credit card statement and going through my statement, I was wrong I have not received my monies back from your company.
OMG!!! WTH?? SO much for apologizing.... Please change the title of this thread. You can't just start a new thread and think this is ok. You have now left people to believe that they took your money.
Here is the letter I received, Notice 24 hour hold. Next I am going to send my receipt
Great News Darryl!

Ok. So you think that the room should have been held for the full 24 hours and you are saying that it wasn't. I get it, but it is now a moot point. The bigger issue is that you have stated that your credit card was charged and that they still have not returned your money. The receipt that you received via email is an auto reply. It was generated before your card actually would have been processed. They have said that the transaction was voided before it was processed. That means that they will not need to refund money. Sharing the receipt for VS doesn't matter. What is on your cc statement does. But, please, do not share that just to make a point.
All we care about is that you have not been wrongly financially cheated and that you have a great trip.
And with that, I say, please just end the madness...

So again someone please tell me where I am wrong deposit paid with 24 hour hold paid with in 1 1/2 later confirmed receipt that I paid but no reservation. I would appreciate it if someone would explain this to me.
Im really tired of this too. VS stated that it was on a24 hour hold I paid it asap. I still did not get my deposit back and have no reservation. I must really not understand how the process works. I know I started this thread but I am getting the impression that I am not telling the truth and I am....
AmyC20120, please just let it go and let this thread die. It has been established that Vacation Strategy did NOT scam you. I understand you are frustrated and disappointed, but to be honest, your recent posts do nothing to prove your point. I read in your other thread that you have a reservation elsewhere, so try to forget this and have fun! You will be in Disney World soon and all this aggravation will be (hopefully) forgotten.
This, so many times. If you are still concerned, take it up with your credit company -- forward them the e-mails you got from VS, tell them your concern, and let it go. If there really is a problem, your credit company will straighten it out for you. Please don't post your personal financial information to the Internet, that's like an invitation for trouble!
And if you can't get past this idea that you can't get hurt unless someone else is deliberately hurting you, you are going to end up ruining your own vacation. For your own sake, and for the sake of the kids, pass it on to your CC company, then let it go, call it a lesson learned, and focus on the fact that you now have reservations and you're going to Disney!

I saw this one several times at the library, and I always meant to pick it up because A) it's a way for me to bulk up my Dutch film cred, which right now stands at zero, and B) I thought it might be a pretty interesting half-true story about a period of crime history I know nothing about, and C) Rutger Hauer is badass, and D) I like Heineken beer. 448 more words

Michael Orthofer runs the Complete Review – a book review site with a focus on international fiction – and its Literary Saloon weblog.
One of the many interesting things about judging the Best Translated Book Award is the sense it gives you of what (and how much) is actually being translated into English (and published/distributed in the US). Thanks largely to Dalkey Archive Press' Library of Korean Literature, for example, we're suddenly exposed to about a dozen Korean titles this year (without the Dalkey publications, it would be more like … one). The statistics can be revealing – and disappointing. Sure, we get … well, if not quite any number so at least a whole lot of French titles – but Chinese ? Isn't Chinese literature hot right now ? Last time the database we rely on was updated (i.e. there might still be some unaccounted for) I counted all of three eligible titles.
Numbers-wise, among the literatures which seems to consistently punch above its population-weight, along with Icelandic and Hebrew, is Dutch (meaning: Dutch and Flemish), and while we have (at last count) quote-unquote only six works of fiction to consider … well, damn, it is an impressive selection (and the Vondel Prize-folks — who have to consider two years' worth of publications — have their work cut out for them).
I haven't seen one of these yet — The Square of Revenge, 'An Inspector Van In novel' by Pieter Aspe – and I suspect that its being part of a mystery series makes it a longshot to get longlisted, but I note that Aspe has apparently sold millions and that this book did get reviewed in The New York Times Book Review (only as part of Marilyn Stasio's 'Crime'-round-up, but still). [As it turns out, there's a double-bill of Inspector Van In novels eligible – a second one, The Midas Murders, having also appeared in the eligible period (but failing to make it onto the database for now – an omission Chad will rectify shortly. So that's seven – and counting … – Dutch titles in the running.]
Even if they are great mysteries, the Aspes will be hard-pressed to compete with the other Dutch titles elbowing for spots on the longlist. First off, there's Hella S. Haasse's The Black Lake , in Ina Rilke's translation — which fellow-judge Daniel Medin has already delighted in in a previous Three Percent/BTBA post. Haasse — who died just two years ago, at a very ripe old age – wrote this back in 1948. While quite a bit of the work by this grand old lady of Dutch literature has been published in translation, it's great to see this important, powerful little novel about colonial Indonesia finally also available in English.
There's another, even older work in the running, Jan Jacob Slauerhoff's 1932 novel, The Forbidden Kingdom. This unusual time-bridging narrative features Portuguese traveler and poet, Luís de Camões, as well as a modern-day (well, early 20th-century) events, and is a wonderful (and wonderfully surprising) more-than-just-adventure novel.
Then there's Gerbrand Bakker's Ten White Geese — which you might also recognize from the title it was published in the UK under, The Detour , since it, in David Colmer's translation, already won the biggest translation-into-English prize on the other side of the Atlantic, the 2013 Independent Foreign Fiction Prize, With Bakker's previous novel, The Twin, already making the 2010 BTBA shortlist it's clear he's an author – and this a book – that has to be taken pretty seriously.
Finally, there are the two Sam Garrett-translated titles – notable not just because they share a translator (Anthea Bell has him beat there, hands down, with five translations in the BTBA-running) but because they're in many ways quite similar works – and both were incredibly successful in the Netherlands. One is Tirza, by Arnon Grunberg, the other The Dinner by Herman Koch. Amazingly, both were reviewed in the not-known-as-very-open-to-fiction-in-translation New York Times Book Review – here and here – and The Dinner even got the Janet Maslin treatment in the daily Times (she loathed it).
One seems to have done much, much better sales-wise than the other — The Dinner, which actually can boast of being a New York Times bestseller (indeed, it spent quite a few weeks on the bestseller lists). Yet Tirza is the clearly superior work; as Claire Messud concluded in her NYTBR review of The Dinner, that novel, while "absorbing and highly readable, proves in the end strangely shallow". Tirza, on the other hand, is both entertaining and, ultimately, profound.
Both novels have a horrific twist. In the case of The Dinner it is one that's, at least in its outlines, fairly obvious early on – but just keeps getting more twisted and horrific as the novel progresses (an admittedly very nice and disturbing touch). Tirza seems to follow a simpler arc of personal dissolution before taking its more surprising final turn into the abyss.
The Dinner uses a meal at a fancy restaurant as its foundation, taking readers through the many courses while incongruously (that's the intent, anyway) increasingly disturbing revelations are made. With one of the characters running for high political office (prime minister, in fact), The Dinner is a cruel satire of contemporary Dutch movers and shakers (and any notion of civilized behavior in general). By turns shocking as well as occasionally funny, it does have considerable shock-value-appeal – but there's not that much more to it. Koch does reasonably well, but not quite well enough with what is also ultimately a very ugly tale that – as Messud noted – doesn't really have much depth to it.
Tirza also involves an almost unspeakable act, but Grunberg is the far superior craftsman in leading readers there, the shock, when it comes, all the more affecting. It's a remarkably convincing portrait of a man falling apart. Like Koch's novel, it's uncomfortable to read, in part, but whereas Koch's exaggerated satire can also be shrugged off – good for cocktail-party chatter, but hardly to be taken seriously as an in any way a profound critique of society – Grunberg's novel sits much deeper.
I can see the easy appeal of The Dinner – part of which is surely also that it can be shrugged off fairly easily, as over-the-top satire often can. Tirza, much more personal than public (no one running for the highest office in the land here …), may not be a novel whose protagonist readers want to identify with either, but it's a completely convincing portrait of (a) contemporary man and contemporary society.
This BTBA selection process, of narrowing down the three or four hundred eligible books, first to a longlist, is challenging. I've just gone over the Dutch titles here, and I think there's a strong case to be made for four of them to at least reach the final-25 stage. Whatever the outcome – I am only of nine judges, after all, and I can't be sure how my fellow judges feel about these (and the many other worthy) titles – I'd be surprised if Tirza didn't make the cut, and if The Dinner did.
Pedro Zarraluki's The History of Silence (trans. Nick Caistor and Lorenza García) begins with the narrator and his wife, Irene, setting out to write a book about silence, itself called The History of Silence: "This is the story of how. . .
There are plenty of reasons you can fail to find the rhythm of a book. Sometimes it's a matter of discarding initial assumptions or impressions, sometimes of resetting oneself. Zigmunds Skujiņš's Flesh-Coloured Dominoes was a defining experience in the necessity. . .
In a culture that privileges prose, reviewing poetry is fairly pointless. And I've long since stopped caring about what the world reads and dropped the crusade to get Americans to read more poems. Part of the fault, as I've suggested. . .
I would like to pose the argument that it is rare for one to ever come across a truly passive protagonist in a novel. The protagonist (perhaps) of Three Light-Years, Claudio Viberti, is just that—a shy internist who lives in. . .
The last five days of the eleventh-century Icelandic politician, writer of sagas, and famous murder victim Snorri Sturleleson (the Norwegian spelling, Snorre, is preserved in the book) make up Thorvald Steen's most recently translated historical fiction, The Little Horse. Murdered. . .
We all know Paris, or at least we think we know it. The Eiffel Tower. The Latin Quarter. The Champs-Élysées. The touristy stuff. In Dominique Fabre's novel, Guys Like Me, we're shown a different side of Paris: a gray, decaying. . .
One hundred pages into Birth of a Bridge, the prize-winning novel from French writer Maylis de Kerangal, the narrator describes how starting in November, birds come to nest in the wetlands of the fictional city of Coca, California, for three. . .

Technology used to be considered impersonal. You know, the idea of the "robotic mind," no human interaction. But, the reality is technology is actually very personal and becoming more so by the day. Devices are so in sync with their users, they've become the personal secretaries to the masses. This is even more true when talking connected wearables.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:

How does it work?

Abu Rawan tomato??
Has anyone grown this one? It seems like a good one for our heat.
Here is a link that might be useful: Abu Rawan tomato
Very interesting. I would like to try it. Do not underestimate Oklahoma's heat, though. The middle east cools down in early evenings unlike our round-the-clock heat depending on that year's season and also geographical location. In many places in the middle east one need only shade as there is a cool breeze fairly constantly. When the sun is removed in the early evening it is blissful. Oklahoma? Not so much.
My experience was in Jordan which may be a tad cooler than many places in Iraq.
So, I'm not experienced but Dawn suggests tomatoes need cool evening weather to set fruit? Anyone have any thoughts on this? I checked the current weather in that city at 3am it was 104 degrees. Maybe they'll be fine. Very curious, indeed. Only one way to find out!
Abu = "Fater of"
Rawan = Male name
"Named for the onetime caretaker of the greenhouses at the Agricultural College at Al Ghraib"
You'll never know how it will do or how it will taste unless you try it, but I'll throw this out there: although I like this particular seed company a lot, I have been incredibly disappointed by many tomato varieties I've purchased from them. Hence, I've stopped buying tomato seeds from them for the most part. Almost nothing I've bought from them, in terms of tomato varieties that are exclusive to them or are being introduced by them, has lived up to their descriptions. I've found they sound so much better than they are in real life. More and more I am buying tomato seeds from other companies because the performance I get better better matches the description of it at the other companies' websites. I'm not saying that to dissuade you from trying this tomato, but basically am saying 'caveat emptor'.
Bon, Research shows the importance of temperatures, both high and low ones, on fruit set of tomatoes. Humidity plays a role too. High temperatures and low RH is not nearly as bad for tomatoes as high temperatures and high RH. I've had great fruit set in August with high temps in the 108-113 range while nighttime lows at the same time stayed above 80 degrees, as long as the relative humidity is staying low. At those same temperatures with high humidity, I get really poor fruit set.
I'm growing this and another from Iraq this year. I had incredible germination of Abu Rawan seeds and the seedlings are all strong.
I had a brief discussion with someone stationed in Iraq on a forum. I asked him if the temps drop a lot at night.
He said they drop from the daytime temps of 100 - 114 to between 80 and 90 degrees where he is.
Sounds like a great option for Oklahoma weather if it can set fruit under those temps in Iraq.
I'm hoping these plants will produce when most of the tomatoes stop setting fruit.
I have no idea what they taste like, but any homegrown tomato is better than a store bought tomato or no tomato.
I ended up reseeding Nineveh since my original seed starting failed for that variety. Those transplants are small, but I ended up with 4 of them, several Basrawya and quite a few Abu Rawan. Some of the Abu Rawan plants have buds on them already, so they must be early producers too.
The person I had the discussion about night temps with is stationed in Baghdad.
As usual, Glacier was the first to flower and already has a tiny green tomato set. Last year Glacier was the first to set fruit, continued to set fruit throughout the entire season and was still loaded with unripe fruit when a freeze was forecast. I picked a couple ice cream buckets of green tomatoes from the two plants and nearly all of them ripened inside over the next few weeks. They're small tomatoes but very dependable and not bad tasting.
