mower

I have a DR Brushmower that runs at a slow idle when fully choked, dies when I move to run. It’s a 15hp Kawasaki engine. If I fiddle with the throttle at the carb, I can get it to run at speed. There seems to be some feedback that is shutting down the engine. Does anyone have a shop manual with...

Can someone explain the lift mechanism for the belly mower on a John Deere 855? I just traded my problematic classic convertible for (what appears to be) a well maintained but long dormant 855 and see no possible way the mower deck could be raised via the 3 point mechanism in back. There is...

I’m not sure if there is a flail mower specific thread on this site but I picked this mower up this weekend and I’m wondering if anyone could help identify it. The previous owner didn’t know the make/model and I’ve yet to find anything helpful on it. It looks like it had some stickers at some...

I just bought a 2023 emax 20s with loader, backhoe and third function option. I want to add the 54 inch MMM. I saw a thread that said the MMM would not work with the backhoe? I have seen other emax 20s with loader, backhoe and MMM for sale so I think that is wrong and I can configure a new 20s...

So, I'm looking at a 25 hp, cab tractor for the lawn and light snow removal. Looking for pros and cons of a belly mower vs a 3 ph. I see the belly mower being more maneuverable but more of a pain to take on and off. I expect the mower to be on and the loader to be off in the summer, then mower...

1998 F1145, 28HP Diesel motor, 4x4 hydrostatic drive forward and reverse. Recently moved and have no need for a big machine. I only use it for plowing a long driveway now. Come with a 54” snowplow, 47” snowblower and a 72” deck, new gearbox and center deck hub. Both front tires are new this...

G’day Tractor Forum, I've recently picked up a Toro Z287L with a seized FH680V engine and a bad deck. I've cleaned up the engine, honed the cylinders, and soaked the heads in ATF. I reckon it'll run fine with new gaskets and oil. The deck is a non-original 52-inch replacement, but it’s beyond...

I have two that I have owned since new and I no longer have the mowers they work with. One was used with my John Deere GT235 48" deck (chute model 179), the other with a John DeereX300 42" deck (chute model 577). I do not know the Palmor Products model #'s unfortunately. Normal wear and tear...

Recently inherited my Dad's M8540 tractor. I requested quotes from JD and Kubota for a 'ditch bank' flail mower: JD - Frontier FL1272S at $11,175. Kubota - Land Pride OFM2678 $18K The reason I'm considering an ditch bank mower is we have a pond with a pretty high damn as well as the front of...

I bought this with my 2019 MT122 as a backup for my 60" zero turn. Used it for about an hour to test it (works great) and then set it where it sits now. Essentially new condition. Dealers want about $1K more than I'm asking. I live 20 miles north of Milwaukee. Prefer cash and local...

A local guy on craigslist sells "Miva" brand 58" sickle mowers intended for 1-2 ton mini excavators for $450. I couldn't resist. I bought one. I had leftover parts from my post hole digger conversion project that worked out nice to make a pivot mount for this on a ssqa plate. the storage...

Winter project. Bought mower used and knew rear roller had some bad rust issues from sitting. Mower has the large rear wheels option so rear roller only touches ground on high points. Rust and perforation weakening the roller. Repair before totally ruined. New roller $2,000 so no go. Took a...

Craftsman 42" rider, bought in '10, Briggs 24Hp, Vtwin. First off, it has a starter solenoid problem, clicks multiple times before catching to run the starter. So, I guess I need to find one of those. Once running, it'll be OK for a while (time varies), but will begin to lose power, stumble...

Does anyone know of an aftermarket gearbox that might fit on a Woods rd8400 machine? Buying a woods replacement gearbox will force me to mortgage farm........

I was just wondering if old school PTO driven sickle bar mowers cut in the folded up position. Found a good looking one for $400 and I was thinking if they cut in the up position it would be a good way to keep the sides of my overgrown woods road cleared.

does anyone have a manual for this in pdf format or even jpg? i have some exploded parts view but the whole pto unit is missing in the diagram - it has the main unit parts listed and not the shaft info included. - my unit is and has been frozen for a few years now due to many surgeries. and it...

Hello, I have a steep, uneven and rocky food plot planted with white clover. It needs mowing once or twice a year. I believe a finish mower may get damaged and a brush hog may not do the job. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I am in the process of finding either a pull-behind rotary cutter or a flail mower for my ATV but I have zero experience with either. I have used a rotary cutter behind tractors to maintain hunt property trails and food plots for years but an ATV cutter or mower which off-sets to one side would...

What’s the largest TYM OR Brandon tractor that will take a belly mower? Something with a loader and 3 point hitch too.

I recently picked up a Aktiv TH sickle bar mower, and the gentleman I picked this up from had a manual that was in decent condition. Since the manual (which I'm guessing is circa ~1960) doesn't have any copyright marks, I scanned this in and am posting it to this net since TractorByNet has been...

Good Morning from NH, cold, damp and rainy this morning. Did my last cut (one can only hope) this past weekend then my wife hands me this part this morning. Apparently in our gravel driveway outside the garage door where I keep the '21 JOHN DEERE X73O 2WD. Anyone have an idea, I'll be scanning...

I recently purchased this mower used, and I found some side play in the spindles, which may indicate they need to be rebuilt with new bearings. Has anyone on here ever rebuilt spindles on this model mower? They have a 4 bolt square pattern housing. A thin 25 mm slotted self locking nut is on...

Hello all. New tractor owner here. I purchased a used 2011 2320 hst with 670 hours. It came with the 62D mower. Today was my first mow with it. The deck adjustment is all messed up, which I guess is quite common. I’ve read through a ton of threads about this but my situation seems a little...

Does anyone know where I can find blades for my 4ft finish mower blades that won't break the bank? And that has them is stock.

Last year I had my riding mower break down while mowing in Somerville Texas. I had to finish before traveling back to Waller Texas, so I went to Burleson county Tractor Supply and bought this Troy-Bilt pony 42. The only one I could afford. I have only used it 2 or 3 times and now have my...

Has anyone replaced the seals in one of these gearboxes? It's on a BX2350D. It's not the owners manual gearbox. It's a split aluminum case. Horizontal spline runs via drive shaft. Vertical shaft has blade. I have to replace the lower bearing (very bad, greased but too much play)and seals...

I just got a Del Morino Flipper flail mover. FLI 214 MMSS. What would one set the belt tension to or how would you figure it out? The manual basically says adjust it correctly. It is a 3 belt drive.

I am looking at replacing a John Deere 855 with a 380 frame mounted plow. Does anyone have the Kubota B2601 with the 4 point hitch (B3410 for B01) and the 60" HD front blade (BX2812A)? I would appreciate to hear your thoughts and if you have any pics. I have not been able to find any on...

I would rather not have to turn a valve to let my carb run out of fuel after the season is over. Does anyone know of a inexpensive 12V solenoid valve that can be placed inline with a separate fuel electric switch?

Looking for “Old Style” Input shaft and gear #700492 for gearbox Mott/Alamo dealers look up part # and it crosses over to 702673 gearbox assy I just need the shaft/gear assy New or used

I bought a New 2022 Betstco Flail mower EF155 and within the 1st 1.5 acres the gearbox went kaput. I greased everything and peeked at the oil level before starting it up. Then I noticed it was blowing oil out of the breather holes on the filler plug. I stopped for a moment to try to assess...

I have a 2024, 1126 with a mid mount mower. If I operate the loader when mowing with the mid mount mower, the mower stops working. As soon as I stop using the loader the mower starts mowing. Is this normal for this tractor? It does not happen on my 2023 Kioti 2220.

Have a 1989 Curtis Grooming mower, in great shape, however the gearbox got damaged with a bad barring and now need to repair vereticle shaft and barrings. John Deere sold them. They now no longer make the gearbox and shaft. Any ideas on where to go to repair the gear box? Unit is three point...

Hello all Bought a used lenar 69 inch flail mower. I sharpened the Y blades on it. Still doesnt seem to do that great of a job. Often gets tangled up with long green weeds. I noticed lots of flail mowers the blades are hanging from a C chain link. On mine the 2 blades are bolted together on the...

Long time reader and commentator, first post. Background: I have a 6 foot Bush Hog BH16 I bought new over a decade ago. Used it on my JD 2240 and now my JD 5075E for the first time. Hadn't had enough rain in last few years to justify getting it out. Its been banged up a lot in the Texas Hill...

I’m looking at ordering a Massey 72” mid-mount mower (Model 1705) run from a Massey 1835M. I have about 3 acres of native grasses. Has anyone used this particular mower, and able to comment on its performance? How it performs in taller grass etc…. ? Thanks, Wineguy

Well my old rider tractor finally gave up. It is on it's third transmission, and I don't feel like crawling under it to remove it and try to fix it. SO, I have been looking at battery powered lawn mowers. I don't want a Z-turn and I have to have a mower that will fit in my storage shed. The...

So I have come into possession of a Yazoo YHRLD211 commercial front cut rider mower with a 6' deck, powered by a Kubota D722 diesel. The machine itself is really not in bad shape, but the electrical system is all hacked up. Im trying to figure out a few things in order to just fabricate my own...

I need to replace the belt on my 60 inch finish mower. Does the hydraulic motor have to be removed to get the belt around the center pulley? It looks the motor and coupler have to be removed to get the belt off and on or is there some trick to it? Thanks, Bill

My yard is right at 10 acres and it takes me and my wife about 2 hours to mow it with both of us on mowers. I have been thinking about getting a big finish mower to speed up the job and came across this listing this morning. Do any of you know anything about them? I have never heard of Buhler...

Yeah, this topic has been done to death here, but I have a question for those who have used both: I went to the dealer this week to get replacement knives for my flail. The guy behind the counter said I should switch to hammers because they last longer and cut just as well. Has anyone found...

I'm in need of the hydrostatic relief valve location and linkage

I have seen some other posts on here some of you guys are experts on these mowers, hoping to get a little more info! Picked this up at the end of a farmers driveway last night for 800$. Might of got ahead of myself, i was looking for something to cut brush with.

I purchased a woods s105 ditch bank mower that had been completely disassembled and is missing some parts. Can someone get me the measurements for the lift arm the hydraulic cylinder mounts to? I can come up with it roughly but would be nice to know the exact center to center of all 3 holes.

This deck is a RCK60B23BX model ser. 67407 Bought this tractor with 218 hrs on it from a dealer in PA. Was traded in on larger machine. As perfect a condition as I have seen a used Kubota. The dealer had serviced it just before my purchase. I greased the deck at start of this season. It cuts...

A bcs 732cx11 has popped up on marketplace place near me. (Only six hour drive away) . Has sickle bar mower but no other implements. Trying to read up on this machine and it sounds like it’s not the best for mowing. Anyone have some info. Thanks

this is the first time mounting the rough cut mower on my Toolcat, the guy cutting hay in my field will not cut where we have Canada thistle so have to cut it down. first off this rough cut mower is not a brand name, has the bar where the blades mount instead of the disc, the mower spins fine...

My 727A starts on the first crank when cool. However, if it has been run for an hour or so and is shut off, it will not start until it cools off for a few minutes. I have gone through the complete fuel system and it has new plugs and ignition coils. Any suggestions?

I built a mini brush hog mounted on the fel of my Kubota. It is a Toro 36 inch 2 blade deck, driven by a Kawasaki FC420v engine. It works great except sometimes it "squeals like a stuck pig" when the blades are engaged. All moving parts are fine on the mower. I spun the spindles up with a...

Almost new mower for Yanmar SA series tractor. Only used about one hour. Came with the 424 I just bought but I have no use for a mower.

My tractor is 42 HP at the PTO with one set of rear remotes. I have established trails and will need to do yearly cutting to keep the brush from encroaching on the trails and fence lines. Any recommendations for a flail mower that has the most offset to the right possible via hydraulics? I’m...

I bought a shredder from the dealer here in Finland. Before I fired it up, I double-checked the mower deck and found that they had not installed one of the zerk fittings for the flail axle. I am disappointed that the dealership will take your money but not do their diligence in delivering a...

I need some help. I have a cub 7193.545-422D100 model. It was running fine, I parked it in the barn and I went to restart after installing the belly mower. Turned the key all the lights came on, turned the key to start and nothing. Allowed the key to go back to on position and not even the...

So I forgot to connect my mid-mount mower deck PTO shaft. I backed up and it bent under the deck, tweaking one ear on the male splined shaft for the U-joint bearings (I think I can bend this back), but it broke the endcaps for the u-joint and I lost some needles. If I could source a new u-joint...

I received the BCRM175 a few days ago, it took me the better part of a day to put it together because the directions are not very good. The directions need better step-by-step instructions and explanations. Between looking at videos and their online pics, I was able to get it together. I...

Does anyone know where I can find a gearbox for a Farmtrac GMR 7A grooming mower?

Yep, I've dropped the mower and forgot to disconnect the PTO shaft 3 times. Today was the worst as I'd just pulled it apart and cleaned/lubed both tubes only to drag the end in the dirt. Wiped it off on my shirt and moved on. I blame the 100 F temperature.

So I’m struggling to choose between a boom mower, or an offset flail. My tractor has 2 rear remotes and I’ve got a Yanmar yt359C. Yanmar specs say 52hp pto some other sources say 46… Yesterday I spent 3 hours weed-eating where either of these could have made it maybe 30 min or so.. a lot of...

I've narrowed my search for a new finish mower to either a Woods TKP72.40 or a LandPride FDR1672. The Woods is ~$1000 more, weighs ~ 70 lbs more, and has slightly wider gauge wheels (4" vs 3.25"). Otherwise, they appear pretty much the same, the LandPride seems to be the no-brainer choice, is...

Why can’t USA get this mulcher? As far a an I can tell it’s only available Kubota Australia. Does anyone know where you can get this exact mulcher in the USA or how to get this one delivered to the USA? Landpride or Kubota USA doesn’t offer it. I dont know how to add a YouTube link but here is a...

hey all, I have a ford 1210 tractor. It is 16 hp, 15 hp at the pto. when i bought the tractor at auction, it came with a Ford 916A belly mower, however, none of the stuff to actually mount the mower deck to the tractor. A little background: over the years, i have welded up some things to mount...

Recently acquired this mower, but the badge that’s on it isn’t the mower, but the gearbox. It’s not a form factor that I’m even familiar with. It’s got two different styles of blade and some sort of lever controlled chute. Any ideas?

Hi All. I scored a deal on a 2005 GX255 this past weekend and have been figuring it out the past couple of days. I searched this sub-forum (John Deere Lawn & Garden) for this model number and only came up with four results so it doesn't seem a common model. This model was only sold in 2004 and...

2020 John Deere x580, great condition, stored inside a shed with a cover year round when not in use. 54" deck with built-in mulcher and pull behind garden cart. Recently serviced (June 2024) with brand new blades installed. The mower has approximately 50 hours on it. Asking $7500.

Looking for recommendations for a finish mower. So far I've looked at the Bush Hog HDTH6, Woods TPK72, and LandPride FDR1672. I'm open to other brands as long as they have a good parts network and are quickhitch compatible.

I have just finished restoring a 1948 Farmall Super A. An IH sicklebar mower (I don't know the model, and don't know how to tell what it is) came with it needing a lot of repair. I have it all together and it goes back and forth like it should, however it immediately plugs up when trying to...

I live in Ohio and thanks to Louis Bromfield introducing multi flora bushes ( very prolific and thorny bushes, almost impossible to eradicate) to our area, the edges of my fields are covered with them. They have to be kept cut or they extend into the fields very easily. The problem with...

Ok, I have been using a zero-turn for 17 years. I am happy with my current one as well because of the nice seat and the speed it cuts. However, I still sometimes like the idea of a nice, big, comfortable, riding mower to cut grass with. It seems the consensus on here is that zero-turns are the...

I am able to get regular rock guards for my MF 31 mower, but I need the one for the left end of the bar. It is narrower than the others and my MF dealer could not find it in their parts database... not even a part number. Can anyone out there help out?

I have a 2023 Mahindra 5155 with FEL, Grapple, Bucket and box blade. Now I am shopping for a bush hog / pto style mower, for brush and other areas around my property that my Gravely ZT HD can't handle. Needs to be fairly robust, but no need for a forestry mower. What would you all suggest me...

ANy body have any experience with this company of it's flail mowers? I'm about to buy this 86" mode https://etractorimplements.com/product/emhd-86-heavy-duty-embankment-flail-mower/ Its quite a bit less expensive than others Thanks

Anybody knows what, where, how to add the external hydraulic line connectors on an Iseki TX1510? Would it be powerfull enough to activate a hydraulic rotor of a small (80cm) mower blade? I'm considering to add to my tractor this feature below, which is a fence pole mower. But I wonder is my...

Do you happen to know if this is correct? Are these Maschios made in China? I'm considering the Frontier FL1163S, which comes to about $5500 with the equine discount or a Nova Tractor BCRM175 fro $3300. My notes:

Looking for the belt part # for the 1505 mid mount deck

Replacing the belt on a 918L Flail mower and in need of advice or manual instruction for correct belt tension. Bought it used with no manual. Thanks!!

I will be going an auction where there is a NH 918H 8ft flail mower. I have no experience with flail mowers so I would like to know what to check for? From my investigation, it looks like the most expensive thing to go wrong is the bearings. How can I check those at an auction ? Are there any...

I am looking at buying a battery powered push mower for a small section of my yard that too big to just use a weed eater and really tight and awkward for my zero turn. Just wondering what brands people have had good or bad experiences with.

Does anyone make a decent quality flail mower that will work on a tractor with 18 HP at the PTO? A friend is looking, but I know very little about flail mowers.

Good evening friends! I recently purchased an older 7ft flail mower from an older lady who cold not remember what brand it was. I can not find any markings. Now the cutter shaft bearings need replaced and I can not find the corrent ones please help if you can

I have an LS MT225S tractor with a belly mower attachment. One of the springs broke that holds the back left side of the mower deck in place. There’s some kind of cotter pin that holds the plate in place for the spring to push against. How does that pin get removed and what size spring do I need?

I have a non drive side bearing that came apart from getting wire bound up in it. I am having issues getting the center shaft of the bearing off the post. Any suggestions on how to remove? There does not seem to be any set screws in the set screw places and it will not budge.

And if so where can I get a new pitman arm? Will a New Idea PA work? Mine is 35.5" long. I know, I should go find some hornbeam and make my own. Maybe someday but not yet. Thanks

I am trying to find replacement blades for my new to me 930A. I have the blades with me, unfortunately the mower is 30 miles away. I thought this would be a pretty easy exercise but.... The blades I took off, when observing them from the bottom would cut in a counter clockwise rotation. The...

I'm looking at one on an auction site and am thinking about bidding on it but don't know anything about this model and really very little about flail mowers, does anyone have any experience with a John Deere 390 flail? it's centered not offset. Thanks.

Leaving a section of grass uncut in the middle of swath. Any suggestions?

Picked up a used FL-165 flail mower at an auction (no brand identification on it). Got it home to find out I have a bent rotor. It looks like it could be an Ironcraft (same look and color) but there is only the serial number sticker on the machine. The Ironcraft have 24 weldments on the rotor...

Recently bought a JD345 newer model mower that had not been used in ten years, like GX345 and transmission works fine in forward but does not move in reverse. Looked at maintenance manual and indicated stuck ball valve in transmission. Is there any way I can move the valve without...

Hi everyone, Have you seen a project anywhere for modifying a sickle mower into a corn reaper binder ? Would it be possible ?

We attached tye deck mower for the season. My height adjustment, not the detail knob, to the right of tge seat wont raise or lower the deck. There is a knob under the seat that sets the under body that will not turn at all either. Any suggestions.

After talking with Dave at Earth Tools, I'm going to try preparing soil for cover crop seeding (using my 10 year old Earthway 2570 hand crank seed spreader) using my 1995 BCS 850 and 2020 30" Berta Flail Mower set to low and equipped with new scarifier blades ($98). I can't afford the Rinaldi R2...

My new Woods TK60 finish mower is leaving windrows in its wake. Any suggestions?

I am looking for a copy of Kioti KRM03-60S finish mower manual. I am also wondering is anyone know what size socket to remove the blades. I went thur every thing I own and I don't have anything to fit.

I just inherited an old Mott flail mower, I think it's model 72, and it has the fine cut rotor. I replaced all the flails and took it for a spin today and it was vibrating like crazy, and as I revved it up, it started vibrating harder and the flails were hitting the surround and sparking. The...

I need tools to clean up where the tractor-mounted rotary mower can't fit. Often the weeds are knee-high or more before I get to it. Trimming is done only a few times per year, more to keep fire danger down than for aesthetics. So I need something heavier than just lawn equipment. It looks like...

My 2006 Husqvarna is getting tired (1800 hours), transmission will not reverse well. I could buy a new ZT Toro 50 inch for about 6k. My brother reminded me I still shpuld be able to buy a mid mount mower for my GC2410. I also need the three bin bagger setup-cant do without that now. Has...

Hi folks, I’m new to tractors and flail mowers. Last year I purchased the Victory Flail Mower (model: FMHDX-94 Extra Wide Heavy Duty Flail Mower). I continue to have issues breaking PTO shear bolts. As soon as I engage the PTO - the shear bolt snaps. I have a CAT II tractor (Allis Chalmers 7010...

I just got a used 7ft finish mower is a rhino, made italy??. Manual say oil should be AGIP-ENI BLASIA 150 Any idea what this means and what equivalent would be? Ty

Hi all. Does anyone running a drum mower for hay use a slip clutch coupler or an overrunning clutch for PTO/tractor protection? I'm a bit leery using nothing, no hole for a shear pin. I am worried about PTO brake as I understand it takes a drum mower a while to spin down. Any thoughts or...

I have a BX2660 and no longer need the mower which is a 54" fine cut deck and also no longer need the loader which is a LA243 I believe. I have no idea how to price these things for sale. I only need my tractor now to tow my log splitter around in my yard. Both the mower and loader are in...

That yellow is a little bright for me, but the local Cub dealer was happy as heck to take my money; meanwhile, the Deere dealer, not so much. I'm looking forward to seeing how she does; my last Cub mowed like a champ. My oldest already bummed around the property, had some fun, and then learned...

The riding mower maintenance is necessary to make it last long to me. The model No: YTH1848XPT The blade part No: 532180054

First, apologies to Vintage Wheel Horse purests. Take a deep breath before continuing ;). My grandson's 'other' grandparents had an old 1961 Wheel Horse in their barn. They used it for mowing and snow plowing 'way back' when their son (my Son-in-law) was very young. My Grandson, Ethan wanted to...

I am the very well satisfied owner of a Kubota ZD21 but it has been suffering with a starter issue for several years and I would like to fix it. The starter motor seems to run fine but the gear very often doesn’t engage to turn over the engine, do you think just replacing the solenoid or...

Skimming through the manuals for my GC2400 and the 60" mower deck, nothing is stated regarding at what engine RPM is recommended when engaging the lower PTO. Once engaged, I do increase the RPM to the "green" zone when cutting grass. What are your "best practices"?

I am in need of some replacement parts, hit a root while mowing my yard and I can't seem to find them available anywhere. any chance anyone has a lead on these guys?? Part No. 1044R.

I've been using my rotary bush hog mower for over 20 years and I mainly mow rolling pasture areas. I also have found it valuable in brushing out some smaller stuff but most of the time it is more grassy and weedy areas. I was thinking about getting a flail mower, not so much for it's ability...

I'm looking into flail mower options. Plenty of choices with more HP and category 1 or 2 hitch. Has anyone operated a flail mower behind a GC1710 or equivalent?

I have a 48” Taylor Way finish mower. Lately the belt keeps falling off. I’ve tightened the belt. The pulleys seem to be ok. I am wondering if the v of the belt has to be inward on the pulleys or is it something else? I would appreciate any advice👍

Has anyone used the front end loader hydraulic connections to run the offset flail mower? I would need another 4 feet of line and a 180 degree redirect to do it. Support the lines in a way they do not get damaged is a concern too. I have 1 outlet on the rear of the tractor now. Offset flail...

My Cub Cadet SLT 1550 is blowing the 20A fuse as soon as it is inserted, even with key off and ignition switch unplugged from the back. It reads 12v DC at all times across the fuse box. The red/white striped wire that leads from the fuse box to the DC alternator has continuity to the frame of...

I just saw this on facebook, and was shocked i didn't think of it, I have a ton of weird and off angle cuts, where it takes me 3 hours 2 tanks of gas and 100 feet of line. there is no way I am not attempting this, I almost bought a mini x and a hydro conversion to do a similar thing.

Folks - I’ve come across these products and I’m wondering what is a fair price - and I do mean fair (low-balling aside) - for them? The owner has indicated that both are roughly 20 years old - but are kept well overall. Thanks in advance for your thoughts on this. -Bob

Hi All, The hanger for my belly mower keeps letting go. The bolt that snaps in place to hold it looks to be not coming out far enough because of some sort of cotter pin blocking it. Could someone who worked on it reassembled it wrong? The hanger just keeps dropping

Other than price and paint color, is there any difference between the Summit FMX-60 ($2,640 at Runnings) and the King Kutter RFM-60 ($2,400 at Runnings)? Since both are out of stock as I write this I haven't been able to see them in person.

We just received a zero turn mower yesterday as seen in these pics. I operated it for 20ft while this young fellow did for 1/2 an hour in practice since the grass has minimal growth.. We have ill elderly parents and leaving town for an undetermined amount of time and Andrew will be in charge...

Hello All, I'm STILL trying to find blades for BM480SB-E Mower Deck currently under a YM-146 tractor. Any help would be greatly appreciated Bob

Hello, I am having trouble finding replacement blades for the M54 mid mount mower. I found the part number 93902000080 and have searched with no luck. Also tried by blade measurements but can’t seem to find any 18.5in with 13/16 center holes (hopefully this is the correct measurements). Does...

My JD X580 mower deck won't engage when I pull the yellow knob lever. Not sure if it's a coincidence or not but when it stopped working I looked underneath & saw that one of the deck leveling bolts (left side when sitting on the mower) had broken so I replaced that along w/ the concave washer &...

Good day all. I am hoping someone has an answer. My RCR48 mower deck needed new blades. The nuts on the spindles were very difficult to remove. One came off with an impact driver; the remaining two had to be removed by grinding them down and splitting them. The spindle threads are good. I...

Got my mower out to start spring mowing. Changed the blades and mower will not run. Checked the PTO switch and it seems to be fine. So how can I see if the pump is working as it should? Or what else can be the problem.

I think I'm going to upgrade from my riding mower that doesn't cut well. This would be to mow about 1.5ac, including around a lot of trees. I'm probably going to look at 48-54" deck width. I don't need commercial level, but would like something that is still dependable and serviceable. There...

I was out of town and my friend used my 2010 Kawasaki mule to pull a stuck zero turn out of the mud. It now has a loud clunking noise coming from somewhere and I'm not really seeing where. The clunk happens in every gear, as well as neutral and speeds up and slows down with the throttle. Any...

I'm about at wits end with this. I recently purchased a kubota bx2660 used with a mower deck attachment and some other attachments. Well I'm trying to attach the deck but can't get the lift linage to line up. I've watched tons of videos and tried everything I've been able to find. It seems...

Ok - i'm pretty good at finding parts. Bought this 6' finish mower from a guy that said he bought it new in 1991. Great price, and one spindle bearing is bad. No biggie i'm thinking. Ordered a re-build kit off ebay. Then took apart the spindle waiting for parts. Parts show up - problem. The...

I got a used Spartan SRT-XD 72" last year. I like the mower its self. It has the 36hp Vanguard Big Block that really runs well, and Parker pumps and motors, it will scoot. But the cut is very much lacking. I've put new blades on it, new belt, new idler pully, spacers to lower the blades in the...

MASSEY FERGUSON 54" FINISH MOWER DECK MF2320 FOR GC SERIES 1710, 1720, 1723 & 1725. I bought this new with my tractor in 2019, but soon realized the tractor is too heavy for my yard, so it's been sitting in my garage for the last 4 years. I only used it 5 or 6 times before accepting that I...

I have a 6 foot Bush Hog brand rotary mower. Need to change the gear oil, it is almost yellow, looks like it could have gotten water in it. Sat out all winter uncovered. 80/90 weight gear oil sound correct for new fluid?

New to me, definitely NOT new. I have the mower on blocks in the shop. I was concerned about the ugly looking gear oil and not being able to drain it completely due to the drain not being at the low point of the housing. I removed the gear box and have it hanging at an angle that should allow...

Bought a used Alamo74 cutter. One of the features is dual rear laminated, bushhog type trailing height gauge wheels. It’s also has the roller bar. The roller bar has some perforations from rust where it was sitting on the ground. Question, do you really need the roller bar with wheels? Patch...

I have quite a few rocks and uneven terrain on my property, on which I keep the weeds down with a 42" riding mower. Needless to say, the occasional blade striking a rock is rough on the blades and spindles. Has anyone tried or considered taking an old blade, cutting it short and drilling holes...

My Woods RM600 (unknown vintage) has worked well for the 4 years I've owned it. Powered by a 1947 Ford 8n early model (front distributor), which runs great. I just prepped it for the mowing season with new blades, greased all zirks, tore down and lubed all casters and axels, and cleaned it top...

When I bought my L3560 tractor, I went and bought a new Sitrex 72" finish mower and a 72 brush hog. My thought was that I would get side work with the finish mower. I used it one time at my father in laws place and never used it again. It's taking space in my 12X30 shed for the last 2 years and...

I've got a Spartan SRT-XD 72" zero turn and I noticed a bent spindle this weekend when I was getting it ready to mow. Have any of you replaced spindles or shafts? I wonder if there is an aftermarket spindle that is worth a hoot? They are pricy from Spartan. Just the shaft is about $65 and I...

Hi, I think I have two problems. Problem 1: I know that I need to replace the PTO clutch on my Bobcat FastCat Pro (61") ZTR. Do I need to buy the Borg Warner clutch or are the Chinese "equivalents" (on eBay for about 1/2 the price) good enough. Problem 2: When I took a look at the belt to...

Hello folks, After giving up on my 314 and sending it on down the line, I am without a mower; this hasn't been a problem, but it'll need to be rectified before we get into Spring. My lawn, if you could call it that, would currently be about an acre on a just under 2 acre property. It barely...

Hi there, I am relatively new to tractors and farming. I am currently running a Kubota M9000 90ish HP and I have an old 5ft rotary mower. The pto shaft is shot, parts are as expensive as a new one. I suppose I have a 2 part question. Am I ok to run the smaller rotary on my kubota? I use it...

My current 6 foot RC is nowhere near enough for the tractor I'm pulling it with. Money is a little tight, but I found a 8 foot RC for CHEAP.. catch is that the internals to the T-Box (center gearbox) are completely gone - center gear box housing is there to compare a new one to, but nothing...

I had a very bad experience yesterday involving a ride on mower and thought I'd post to just remind people how dangerous these seeming safe things are. I've been operating proper ag tractors since 12 or 13 and have a fair ammount of experience. We've had the same ride on mower for a little over...
