That whole guard comes off by removing 5 easily gotten too bolts then it’s out in the open (y)

That's a nice looking machine! The fuel filter location is where I added my Racor 2u filter / separator last year. I also removed the (2) individual tank filters and installed a pre-filter on the common line after the tanks.

Yea, a lot to like about those filters. The ones on my 1211 are cheesy at best. I put my zero turns on my car lift to do any work on them. Sure makes life easier.

Did you remove the OE check valves at each filter ?

I left the check valves before the "T".
Result:
Tank > Check Valve > T > OEM Filter > OEM 12v Pump > Racor Filter > Secondary added 12v Pump > OEM Filter > Injector pump.

I really like your new mower! Sorry the F didn't work out, but better to move on and cut your losses.

Thanks RjC 👍

Yea I couldn’t see keeping the expensive front deck as a backup mower since it wouldn’t stay on my bank sideways.
Big Heavy Commercial Zero fits my application way better.

I ran my ZD1511 6hrs ystrda & a 5hr ride today in super thick tall grass & I’m still not done 😬 : from so much rain the last 2wks that I couldn’t mow any.

Lots of grass here on the chicken farm

These V1505 4cyl Turbo motors are truly amazing although I could use more power like the F3710.

The 3cyl ZD1211 I sold few years back just wouldn’t muscle thru thick grass or hills.
