I just bought a 6' Land pride FRM2572 finish mower. Brought it home, hitched it up to my 30 HP tractor and it darn near kills the thing when I engage it. Land pride rates the mower at 15-50 HP. I've got the blades nice and sharp, the belt tightened to specs, greased up spindles, etc. It just sucks an enormous amount of power to run. Cutting hieght at 4" or so, and mowing at about 2-3mph. Does this sound right, or is something else going on here?
