I purchased a leaf collector yesterday on marketplace. The best I can tell is that it's the JD Tilt Dump MCS. This particular model has the gas engine off to the side to run the blower, not the pto driven blower. It was mounted on an X730 I believe, so the included brackets are not quite the same. I am hoping that I can mount it to my 3 point hitch by fabricating an adapter. Would there be any concern with that weight on the 3PH? I believe it's rated for 758#. Please advise and thank you!

Your L2250 should handle the weight just fine. If not, put a few suitcase weights on the front bumper.

Your 445 should handle that but like big tiller states you may need some front weights when that bagger is full of wet grass or support caster wheels on the rear.

Thanks. It will be going on the JD445 as I don't have a mowing deck for the L2250. I've got 6 suitcase weights and a front weight bar, so should be good there.
