    What machine, or equipment, can mow an uneven grassy pasture the fastest? Zero Turn?

    I am wondering if a Zero Turn, such as a Ferris with suspension, would be a better faster smoother more comfortable mower for my pastures? All I see in promotional videos are using these for lawns, not pastures. But if a speedy ZTR could perform well, I might be more comfortable (suspension)...

    Tool or Utility Pouch for Tractor and Zero Turn

    So for my small JD compact tractor I need some kind of small pouch or tool box that can be accessed while in the seat. Doesn't have to be huge but large enough to hold a few small tools, something that can be mounted to the tractor. I've looked at every small bag/pouch I have, even wandered...

    Troy bilt horse won’t turn off

    Hello everyone, I have a Troy bilt horse pto with the Kohler magnum 8 and electric start. Recently after washing it I noticed that it starts up fine, but when the key is turned to the off position the engine does not shut off. I bought a replacement ignition switch with the correct 3 poles and...

    Kubota zero turn, brake switch

    I have a brake switch bad on my zg222. In a very difficult place to get to. Anyone changed one that might have a tip to make it doable without disassembling the front of my mower. Looks like removing the deck isn’t going to help a lot. Any way thanks for reading

    Debating on 2620 cab or a zero turn

    I haven't been on this forum in years. My last tractor was one of those grey import Vietnamese used Yanmar units. I loved that thing and used it well on my one acre dirt property in Mesa AZ. I had sold it 10 years ago for a bobcat MT85 skid steer since I mainly used it for trenching and...

    ASV RC100 Won't turn when hot.

    I just bought a used RC100 with an unknown amount of hours as the display seems inoperative. But that isn't my issue. When cold the RC100 acts mostly as it should although turning is jerky and fast sometimes and slow others. However, when warmed up you pretty much have to stop moving to turn...

    Do you discharge a battery a little before you charge it?

    When I was a kid helping out is a shop, the meticulous owner told me to ALWAYS turn the lights on for two minutes before a battery charge to drain off surface resistance to a charge. Is this a wive's tale?

    Turn Signal Flasher Relay

    So the turn signal flasher relay just suddenly failed in my RTV-X1100C. When I turn a signal or 4-ways on, all four exterior and the dash indicators stay on solid. Kubota wants $200 for this relay here in northern Ontario, so I bought a whole new complete signal kit for $300 instead as dumb as...

    Used a zero turn today.

    It seems like common advice, buy a zero turn for mowing the lawn, mid mount mowers are awful, use the tractor for tractor stuff. My JD 2025r is under the bellcrank recall and mine is cracked so it’s a no go. I normally mow with it, a 60” mid mount. I borrowed a friends zero turn Scag, a...

    Road flasher / turn indicator protection

    I have an NX5010 and have wiped out 3 flasher / turn indicators on trees while mowing. I found some aftermarket protection / shields but they are a little pricey for just some sheet metal. So, I hacked my own protection and haven't lost a light since. See the attached photo below. What I did was...

    Can you manually turn the pto hookup on the back of the tractor?

    The bigger my implements get, the harder it becomes to line up the splines on the pto shaft at hookup. I've taken to setting my tiller up on blocks so that I can turn the tines with my foot and gradually rotate the pto shaft for alignment. I was unaware that you could simply turn the splines on...

    Cub Cadet Ultima ZT2 54" zero turn brief review.

    I bought this mower about 3 years ago and it was my first Z turn and really my first riding mower purchase of any sort. I think it was about $4000. I got this particular model for the specs, price and availability at a local dealer/repair shop. It is one step above their base homeowner lineup...

    Cub Cadet zero turn 42 inch model 364.

    Replaced a very worn pto belt and the PTO was disengaging fine before belt replacement. Now the PTO does not disengage which in turn the blades keep turning. There is a belt tensioner pulley thinking I might be able to adjust that. Ideas anyone? Thanks

    New member, Old Problem S2554 Click but no turn over

    2001 Scotts S2554 clicks from the on-starter solenoid but rarely turns over. It has had this problem from very early on, charge lights always stay on while running too. I changed the voltage sensor dongle a long time ago but that didn't solve the charge lights problem. So normally you need to...

    Husqvarna PZT-60 Zero Turn

    Hello. A zero turn came with the home we bought last year and I’m sure they never maintained it. Less than 200 hours. Used it last summer. This spring I changed the belt, blades, oil and all filters. Runs great. However, noticing leaks and then today while mowing the right side drive started...

    What grease do you use on your zero turn pully's?

    Somewhere in the past I got it in my head that Moly Lithium grease was the best for all my tractors. I've been using it for years, and guess it's doing a good job. My zero turn has three pully's that my blades are attached to. There are two belts that turn the pully's. Just about every...

    Bad Boy Zero Turn Safety Devices

    Can anyone tell me how to bypass the safety devices so you can get off without it dying? It's not just unplugging the seat switch. I did that and you couldn't manipulate the parking brake or pull in the steering arms without it dying. I just want to be able to jump off real quick, move a branch...

    Zero turn mounted sprayer nozzle

Is there a company out there that makes something like this or do you have to create...

    Kubota ZD21 zero turn mower starter issue ?

    I am the very well satisfied owner of a Kubota ZD21 but it has been suffering with a starter issue for several years and I would like to fix it. The starter motor seems to run fine but the gear very often doesn’t engage to turn over the engine, do you think just replacing the solenoid or...

    Z930R - Zero Turn Purchase - Comments and Rules of Thumb?

    I just purchased a Z930R for my property. I don't have much in the ways of heavy grass/hills so this should be sufficient. Any gotchas on driving/handling/management that you can share or point me to? Thanks!

    What to Look for in Zero Turn Mower

    I think I'm going to upgrade from my riding mower that doesn't cut well. This would be to mow about 1.5ac, including around a lot of trees. I'm probably going to look at 48-54" deck width. I don't need commercial level, but would like something that is still dependable and serviceable. There...

    Disabled Snapper Zero Turn Towing Assistance (Hydrostatic-drive related question)

    Can I turn over a Kubota diesel engine by hand?

    I have a Kubota D1105 engine in a ZD1211 mower. When I tried to start it for the first time this year, the starter made a clicking sound. I knew the battery was going bad as it was getting slow to start last year, so I replaced the battery. However, when I turned the key over, the engine still...

    Zero Turn Mower Problems
