I just picked up a Land Pride 2560 finish mower (for $500) because I now have a lot more grass to mow.
My questions are: I try to mow up and down the slopes but some of it I have to go sideslope or at an angle to the slope. Would I be better off with the FEL removed? I thought it would be good weight for traction but since it mounts up high maybe it raises my CG. With it off I'd also be more maneuverable. And should I get some suitcase weights to hang on the front?
And today while mowing (the level parts) my drive belt disintegrated. It appears that TSC and my local tractor dealers don't stock the belt. Anyone have a source for good quality belts? (I know I should have bought one to have on hand but it's my 2nd time using the mower.
Thanks for the help.
