    Battery in mower during 'winter' in Texas

    Fellas, my mower is only a few months old... but we're moving into Winter pretty soon and I want to make sure it starts next season. Since it's new, do I need to worry about a charger? I have a nice charger that will trickle charge it, but I don't know if that is necessary or not. I also took...

    Engaging blades... what throttle do you use?

    Hey fellas, I used to stick to the theory, when you engage the blades, slow the throttle so your clutch has a better chance of engaging the blades.... but with my newer mower, it seems more of a rough engagement when I slow the throttle and engage the blades. It's almost like it wants a faster...

    Adding light bar to mower

    Cool, I like that! Let us know how they work once you get those bad boys all wired up! I Was thinking using George's idea of using u-bolts and clamping some to the side of my ROP .... if not underneath it

    Adding light bar to mower

    Ok, maybe I'm crazy.. but I want to add a light bar to my new Z724X mower... has anyone done this already? I would imagine adding one to the ROP would be very easy, but then you'd have to move it if you ever wanted to install a sunshade (canopy)... so I'm thinking about mounting one to the front...

    Got a new Z724XKW!

    OK, wow, what a nice machine! I traded my Z121S in on it.. What a difference going from a residential to a commercial. I now have a 54" cut, 11.5gal fuel tank, a MUCH larger foot area (I'm very tall (6'6"), and it fits me very well, hard to find!), fuel gauge, and wow, that seat is AWESOME! I'm...

    Best way to balance a mower deck?

    Fellas, I have a 121S Zero Turn mower (48"). I started noticing a line in the grass between my tire tracks on the grass after I mowed a stretch, like something was dragging. Upon inspecting the mower on a flat surface, I can't see anything hanging down, the only thing I can assume is making the...

    4-ft tall grass/weeds, no problem for Kubota 121S

    Yesterday some neighbors and I trailered our mowers up to the front of the neighborhood where a vacant house is. The 1-acre lawn was easily 4-foot tall and VERY thick, riddled with thick weeds/vines of every sort. My Kubota was the only mower that could manage through the stuff! My fellow mowers...

    Kubota Kommander 121S with mulching kit VERY LOUD

    Hey guys, first post... I love my new Kubota Kommander (23 hours on it now), it's just a downright cool mower. I bought it after selling my Gravely XTHD to a coworker. My only quibble about the Kubota, when the blades are running (with Kubota mulching kit installed), it's SUPER LOUD! I have to...
