Interested in hearing opinions on loading zero turn mowers on various style trailers.
Do you load forward or backward and why.
How do you load with ramps and how with a tilt bed.
I searched this particular forum and the whole TBN site and though I got hundreds of hits of all the threads I looked at my questions were not discussed. I know its got to be in here somewhere but after 15 minutes couldn't find it. Found a few videos on YT but I put more faith in the opinions I find here on TBN than anywhere else.
Reason I am asking is I am looking at getting a JD 737 and I have a tilt bed trailer
and also in the future possibly a enclosed 6.5 x 14 cargo trailer with ramp and curious
if the procedure for loading on each will be different.
These mowers seem like they are easy to flip backward when on an incline. I don't have
any hours under my belt running one but from the looks of them they seem light up front
and easy to upset.
So before I end up on YT as the star of one of your favorite 'how not to load a zero turn
mower' videos I thought I would ask.
TIA
