F Series vs. ZD

It just sets right in with no clamps or bolting. With even just 2 psi it is a snug fit between the seat and the bottom of the base. And 11-12 psi is were I usually keep it.

I'm afraid that just won't do! There must be a complicated retaining mechanism to hold that thing!

Update. Ended up keeping the ZD1211-60 bought F 2690-60 working on air pressures on the F to get rid of the excessive bouncing. Each machine has pros and con's. Just lucky that I can keep both and every once and a while can use the old BX2360 for the really rough stuff

Does the F spin the inside tire doing fairly tight turns ?

My F3710 i got rid of was Horrible when going up slight hill turning

My F2000 does unless I engage the 4wd.

4wd seemed to make my F3710 spin worse.
I even fluid filled all 4 tires & it didn’t help.

The F just didn’t suit my application at all so I traded it for a ZD1611.

Your 770 will easily run a 9' haybine. Set it to swathe and not windrow and you can run in 3rd gear. I ran my NH479 hay mower with an 18 h.p. Yanmar on my lawn for a few years. The sickle type cutter leaves an awesome pattern in the lawn. Add a baler and sell the 'hay' to animal keepers. My Yanmar also had no trouble with a JD-14T even though the tractor did not have a separate pto clutch.
