I recently came across a deal on a FarmPro 2025 hp 4x4 tractor with a bush-hog, box-blade and finishing mower. I have never owned a tractor but since I just built a house on about 10 acres I really need it.
I first want to say this is a great forum, it has already solved one question for me!!
Here is my other question...When running the finishing mower should I run it at 1000 RPM or 540 RPM? It seems to cut fine at 540 and at 1000 RPM its really loud. The same for the Bushhog, what RPM? There are two High/Low gear levers, what are the differences in these, and should I be running in a certain gear for mowing? I cut my front yard yesterday with the finishing mower at 1000 rpm with both levers in high and in first gear, it did fine but seemed to get pretty hot, the Coolant valve was boiling over.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
