Christian Livingstone shows a somewhat impromptu, yet surprisingly complete and in-depth process for new cones being installed into his Dixon zero-turn mower, with its friction-drive transaxle system. The mower is a 1995, model 3304, and its particular transaxle assembly was used on numerous Dixon mower models, but which still seems to mystify many owners in its bench and running adjustments, because it can be a little tricky. Christian mostly follows the Dixon procedural literature, but also gives some of his own tips and rationales, especially regarding bearings and for making the center shaft and its keyway more robust at the drive belt pulley/sheave. Practical demonstration and mowing technique is briefly shown with the completed unit, along with final adjustment for the controls, as well as some rationales about potential obsolescence of Dixon friction-drive mowers, along with a few tangental points, too.
