When comparing Yanmar to let's say John Deere the dealers want to say "Oh the JD advantage is the drive over deck quick connect system". They pretty much will argue to the death if you say Yanmar also is a drive over. In all fairness there may be a couple addtl steps, but not enough to NOT buy Yanmar IMHO. Watching Yanmar Academy mower attach and detach videos refers to the M60F and demonstrates it as a drive over for the SA 324 & 424. Also the M60SA that is used on the SA221 is also referred to as a drive over deck. I have not found a video on the mower attachment for the 221, but have Yanmar literature listing it as a driver over deck. I had to show my Yanmar dealer the video as he was not aware that it is demo'd by Yanmar as a drive over. Anyone else seen these videos and documents or have any experience with this?

In the video he said installing the mmm was for the sa series tractors
you have the sa 221 and the sa 324 and sa 424 are the same the difference is the 424 has larger tires. So the video applies to both of
the sa series tractors. It looked like it was very easy to install and uninstall the mmm.

Yes U R correct sir (Ed McMahon). That is why I said Yanmar docs say the M60SA which is the 60" mower for the SA221 is also a drive over, BUT I have not seen the 221 MMM install on video.

The M60 MMM for the SA 221 is NOT a drive over mower. The deck for the 324/424 is different than the one used for the 221.
I wanted the drive over option when I traded my 2014 221 for a 2020 model and it’s not available.
