2305 handle a 5ft Brushhog?

[wagonguy]

Is 5' brushhog too much or can ths 2305 run it OK? no hills ,(so far) just wonder about weight and lift?

 

[Willl]

How much does it weigh ?

 

[LD1]

All bush hogs weigh different.
Will it lift the weight...probabally.
Does it have enough pto HP to use it....Probabally.
Will it be hard to steer without front weights or a loader...definatally.
Would I do it...NO. Id just get a 4' made for the tractor.

John Deere does not offer a 5 ft for 2305. I would go with
either the Frontier 4 ft or the King Kutter XB designed for SCUTs.

I run a 5ft. bush hog on my 2305 just fine. I have the loader on the front though. It works just fine but it's quite a load on the tractor to lift and run. Get a 4ft if you care about your tractor.

So then why are you running a 5 footer?
