Landpride mower flats

[Maker102]

OK guys you all have the answers, I have Pnumatic tires on my Landpride mower. When I back up the tire goes about 90 degree's and breaks the bead. Then I need to stop fill it with air and go on again. Is there any kind of foam that I can put in them to keep them inflated. I have tried slime and another type of sealer with no luck. Ideas?

i've run a landpride fd2572 for 5 years now and only once had a flat, done the same thing this year with my new Kubota. the problem is your letting your lift arms all the way down. with everthing sitting still on flat ground slowly drop your lift untill the mower links are flat to the ground, set the postion control lever stop at this position, no more flats. also put the hitch pin clips on the inside away from the tires, the tires can flip them off . been there to.

My 60" LandPride has pneumatic tires, and I've had 2 flats since new. This is with two full seasons plus this year so far. One was because of the way I jammed it into the edge of a blacktop road. The bead broke loose, and it was repaired simply by reinflating it. The second time, about a year and a half later, required installing a tube because the bead had been roughed up enough that it wouldn't seal.

Mine swivel freely. Do you keep the vertical shafts greased well?..............chim
