NEW LX3310

[Paystar]

After doing lawn care service for many years, zero turns are overrated.

I certainly would not own one.

With that being said, I do and don't like MMMs. They save space, but the hassle of taking them on and off is a chore. They give a mediocre cut.

I prefer rear finish mowers with a rear discharge with a high blade speed. Plus you can get under trees and under other stuff.

I keep thinking I'd like to try a rear 3 point mower, but I'm a creature of habit. I mowed with lawn and garden tractors for so many years a mid mount is what I am used to. On the plus side, my B has a drive over deck so it is simple to take on and off.

Thanks everyone appreciate the nice words. The GR2100 i had did a good job mowing so I hope this will work out . If not my wife will let me know, since she does most of the mowing.
I did get the standard size r14s so I can get chains if I need them. I took the loader off already and put the snowblower on for the forecasted snow. The main reason I went with the 3310 over the 2610 was for the extra hp while blowing snow. One big storm and you can use every available hp.

you will not need chains with a blower, i use blower and backblade, never any traction issues.

Agreed, except in ice conditions.

I bought the hydraulically angled front blade with hard rubber cutting edge (asphalt) when I bought my B3350 about two years ago.

I have two asphalt driveways, each about 900' long and both are steep, in some places very steep.

I've plowed these driveways with my B1750 and back blade for over 25 years but always with F & R chains.

Accordingly, I bought F & R chains for my B3350 and spent about 4 hours properly fitting them.

I had never plowed snow with a front blade prior to buying the B3350 but quickly learned that tire chains are not needed and, indeed, counter-productive in such circumstances. The front blade with hard rubber cutting edge clears the snow on my asphalt driveways so cleanly, that the tractor tires operate on clear but wet surfaces. Any of you that have such experience know that tire chains produce MUCH less traction on hard surfaces than do tires without chains. Indeed, my B3350 with chains would not plow 2 or 3 inches of snow (uphill) but had no such issues once I removed the expensive (both $ and time) chains. The chains were, however, very effective in removing the seal coating from my asphalt driveways, but, so is the front blade, hard rubber cutting edge not withstanding.

Keeping the chains as they have been closely fitted to the tires on my B3350, but will likely never again install them.

Your mileage may well vary on crushed stone surfaces, and ice is an entirely different subject.
