hi i have a husquvana lt151 lawn tractor and find it nearly impossible to clean under the deck have seen a few devices to do this but wanted to make my own has anyone atempted making one would love to hear other peoples ideas

I did one on my mates all I did was put 4 hose snap connectors through from the top of the cutting deck leave the engine running and connect the hose it sort of power washes the underside, the first two connectors need to go near the Blade mount and then the other two about half way along the blade so it runs onto the rotating blade ! he does it evertime he finishes mowing and his deck ends up clean.

Get one of these for your pressure washer, most brands do one.

Hi does it have a lifting point at the front and stabilizing arms at the back that hold the collector box on , my father has a Honda mower and I made an A frame and fitted a electric winch to it , have a look at your manual if it is like the Honda it will have a pic somewhere standing on its end probably won't tell you how to get it up but it shows it would be possible, will post a pic tonight ok.
