Default Re: 72" OnRamp Mower Deck

If it is a 7-Iron, I wonder if there will be a conversion kit to allow upgrades of current 72" 7-Iron?

Sorry but I just looked at the availability update and it said August 08. But on the bright side the 2720 is now available.

My dealer also said August 08 for the 72" OnRamp deck. They said something about auto PTO hookup as well. If so, like to see how that works.

I see the 62D driveover for the 2000 series has a store-and-go feature where you can connect the deck to the three point to move and transport when off the tractor. Hoping that gets carried over tothe 72" as well.

I don't know if any public announcement has been made or if any links exist as yet. My info is heresay from the dealer who I think is quoting internal documents.

That would be a quite necessary feature IMHO , as heavy as this deck will be.

Talked to a dealer this past weekend and he indicatted the ramps on these units are very, very heavy duty. Also these MMMs are gonna be pretty heavy, with the additional of the ramps.

BTW, I could not wait and I bought a 2006 7 IRON for my MMM. got a good price on a slightly used MMM in very good shape.
