I have a little B2410 with a Land Pride 60" finishing mower to run around the land with. The specs on my tractor tell me that the 3 point is capable of lifting about 1200 lbs or so (if my memory serves) 24" from the 3 point center line. The finishing mower weighs in at 577 lbs.
Now I understand leverage and all that, so that 577 isn't necessarily an accurate number due to the lenght of hte mower and where the weight is. However, I would think that the 3 point would be capable of lifting it off the ground, but mine won't get it done.
Part of that is probably due to some slack in the system that I'll take a look at over the weekend, but in general, should my tractor be capable of lifting the mower off the ground?
