Zd1211 blades

I’d think it would take a serious hit on the mower to bend or warp a 1/4” thick blade.

My stock Kubota blades brand new will not lay flat on the table or bench best I remember.

Both these Oregon blade cutting edges are strait & flat

I’m doing my 250 hr service tomorrow and putting on the machined hub for the 1.125 blades.
I’ll give a report tomorrow night.

I bought 4 new (1 for spare) K5955-34380 spindle boss blade holders & had machined down for my 72” SD to accept the Oregon G6 Gator Blades like I’m running on my 72” RD Deck.

These Blades are Awesome.

Thanks Again to gonnasellit for his R&D work :thumbsup:

Sorry for not getting back sooner on the blade swap.
I’ve put about 10hrs on my 1211 since I put the machined hubs and Oregon Gator G6 blades on. It definitely made a + difference in the cut quality, it also
Is leaving a definitely noticeable stripe.

Buckeyebutch, is your ZD1211 a 72” Deck ?

When you say stripe are you referring to the desirable contrast stripes, or some defect in the cut?
I have been very satisfied with G6 Gator blades on my ZD mowers, but with the 1-1/8" holes. I can't believe Oregon has not made a blade to fit the new Kubota commercial mowers.

I’m sure he means the desirable contrast stripes from mowing back & forth. :thumbsup:

I agree with you on Oregon loosing out on not getting in on the SD Decks running the 1-5/16” center hole blades.

Especially with them being the exact same length.
