NH Boomer 35, Kubota BX 1880
Today I was mowing and realized the deck would not raise. The rear arms lift just fine.

Lo and behold the arm that attaches to the deck from the left lift arm is broken:confused:

Thing looks like it was made out of pot metal, lol.

I'll haul it in Tuesday and have it fixed under warranty.

Has anyone else had this issue? I have 12 hours on the machine.

I have an earlier version... 8 year old BX1860, with a lot of hours on the MMM. Everything is solid and well built. Not the easiest thing to install and remove, but solid as a rock. Sorry I can't help with the new and improved model.

Does your machine have the new drive-over deck? Seems like that would require a different lift/mounting system, but I haven't seen one in person. Good luck!

Other than this glitch, how do you like the machine?

I opted for the old system as I am just using this as a mower. Other than this, I haven't had an issue.
