Finally someone on youtube that understands the dynamics of recording sound and getting it right. Kudos to you for the lesson and the way it's presented. Yes, someone noticed
I expect this mower will last several seasons with decent care. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend Also, I ran across the problem with it not starting the 2nd time I used it. There is a safety switch which is pushed in by the chute or mulching piece being attached to the deck. I took the cover off and it wouldn't start. Put it back on, no problem. It takes only a minute with 2 easily accessible wingnuts and no tools. This mower starts up first crank each time and it is a joy to use. It also mows in reverse by putting the key to the reverse area after starting and pushing in the triangular button. It will stay in reverse mode until you turn it off. All in all, for my homeowner needs, I really like this mower-and at 70 bucks a cut here in Miami, it's already more than 1/3 paid for itself in a month.
Good stuff. I learned this on my own( 30"stander) especially on damp lawns in the mornings. You might not care about your own lawn but try doing a picky customer lawn after they just fired the previous crew. Had to show my boss in his "manly" 60" with tweels ( airless tires) as he tore up big patches on turns. They didn't want him back AT ALL. Customer went and bought a 30" stander to have me cut their lawn and paid well. Make money and LISTEN to the customer.
Same here... This TH-camr gave me an idea of except turning around straight away, just make an oval until you get to the end and cut the area where you didn't cut at to prevent damaging the grass and your mower
im new on the grandstand and tore up some lawns at work not too bad though, they pointed it out and were soo cool about it. grass grows back but learning how to do it right will make me a master!
Am new to zero-turn only ridden one about 3 times now have gotten better at handling it by now. Am glad I saw this because I was making this mistake just today. I'll know for next time.
I cant tell you how many TH-cam videos I have been watching on this subject. You did a nice clear explanation. Now to perfect it. I just started as the guy cutting lawns at a cemetery. Let me tell you that is truly a challenge in a very crowded cemetery. Didnt help that I started the week after Memorial Day and have to contend with a ton of American Flags stuck in the ground. If I can just get this one skill perfected Ill be in good shape. In some cases here there just is no room to do a K turn but now that I know that it is the rear wheel doing the damage hopefully I can at least minimize the divots. Thanks!
I just used my brand new Cub Cadet ZT1 machine this week. I have been using a ransomes/bobcat commercial grade walk behind lawnmower for 30 years. It finally died. This ZT1 is insanely fast, smooth and agile. The gearing in these things is a game changer. I'm sure I'm way late to the party, but I'm a believer.
Haha!! Tips to turn more with a "zero" turn mower. Makes sense but we need to rename the mower. Introducing the K turn mowers.. hmm KTMs. Nice little ring to it
I have my first 0 turn mower. I subscribe to your channel comma and i'm watching your videos. I've learned a great deal just between the two videos and i've taken notes. Thank you for posting all of this valuable information.. Semper Fi!
I have watched countless videos for the "three point turn" And most of them are good including this one. Here is my problem, everyone explains how to three point turn, but no one explains how to prevent the pivot itself. As in when I come to my stop at the end of a row what do I do with my bars (the action) to keep both wheels spinning. Now I know it may be common sense to some who have lots of experience on a zero turn but I am just starting out on one, and do NOT want to put divot holes in my grass. I have been practicing the back up portion, but not quite understanding the correct handle bar movements to keep both wheels moving, so i dont pivot while making my turn. Thanks to anyone who sees this and helps.
The reason why no one explains this is because it extremely hard to put into words. It takes time to develop that gliding smooth motion that you need to operate smoothly. It will come in time and you’ll forget you were even new to the controls
One of the demonstrators in a different video of the same zero-turn tractor doesn't recommend driving the thing backward unless you have no other option!
Three point turn defeats the purpose of a zero turn you might as well just have a lawn tractor at that point. I just go slow when I turn and don't spin around and go back. It doesn't tear up the lawn
My Snapper zero turn has a decent loud click while I'm going forwards or mowing forward can somebody please help me The Click sounds like it's coming from the back left side
It should. It’s no different than driving a bobcat. This video is wrong. When you turn on the spot, one wheel should be moving forward while the other goes in reverse.
“Do not pivot on your turning wheel” Constantly pivot on turning wheel showing how do it the right way. It’s a zero turn, why don’t reverse one wheel when moving forward the other, instead of doing 3 maneuver? It’s faster and doesn’t ruins the lawn…

That’s funny,,, watching this,,, I said the same… Awesome Audio Control,,, nice job 👍🏻
Stopped by to say the same thing. This is the best audio I've heard for a video like this. Kudos to you.

instead of stopping and pivoting on the left or right wheel, slightly reverse it, as you're moving the opposite wheel forward.
The most simple solution, well done.

Thanks! I'm new to zero-turns, this is exactly the info I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.

Thanks I’m about to buy my first zero turn and I was wondering about this very subject
thank you, I was wondering why that would happen when I turned around.
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸🇺🇸
That was perfect! Thank you sir for taking the time to make this video
Thanks for the tip
One of the demonstrators in a different video of the same zero-turn tractor doesn't recommend driving the thing backward unless you have no other option!
Thank you. Clear and helpful information for me to practice. Saved video for future reference....practice, practice, practice.
Wow, im a durbin from England👍
Awesome!
Great advice...I had no idea...thanks for this
bossmayne vid right here. good stuff
Comes natural to some of us... :)
Thank you so very much.
Good explanation thank you thumbs up
Nice. Thanks for the tip!!
I like your new video today you did a good jop today buddy
Semper Fi
You realize when far from camera and not demonstrating.. you were doing exactly what you were saying not to do
Half the time my worst enemy is the front tires. When they turn back into position its them that tear the lawn up a little.
thanks
Great video, one of the best.
I've gotten better with my new ZT. There are still times when I make a mistake in certain areas on the lawn that has a slight hill and is damp/moist.
No matter how careful i am and do the 3 point turn my John Deere zero turn leaves scuff marks at times
Ooh Rah Shipmate!!
thank you sir
When I backup like that, the blades stop.
I don't give a shit about damaging my lawn. I just want to instantly turn around.
Good video. How do you drink beer while mowing with a zero turn? LOLz
It goes in the cup holder....
Any experienced zero-turn driver can drive with one hand.
You get a plastic helmet with can holders and long straws.
get one with a joy stick
So basically, don't make zero turns, but turn as if you have a tractor?
Yes
Where did you get the hustler
Three point turn defeats the purpose of a zero turn you might as well just have a lawn tractor at that point. I just go slow when I turn and don't spin around and go back. It doesn't tear up the lawn
My Snapper zero turn has a decent loud click while I'm going forwards or mowing forward can somebody please help me The Click sounds like it's coming from the back left side
Would you call it a Snap?
Why don't people just reverse on one side for tight turns and no pivoting on one wheel since they're both moving.
>zero turns
>turning all over the place
👍
I have the mindset that a zero turn mower should turn on the spot .
I completely agree! But you have to be prepared for the physics of it to tear up your yard!
It should. It’s no different than driving a bobcat. This video is wrong. When you turn on the spot, one wheel should be moving forward while the other goes in reverse.
You’re doing all that but your front guide wheels will tear the grass up too
“Do not pivot on your turning wheel”
Constantly pivot on turning wheel showing how do it the right way.
It’s a zero turn, why don’t reverse one wheel when moving forward the other, instead of doing 3 maneuver? It’s faster and doesn’t ruins the lawn…
Common sense lol
Dirt bikes do the same rip the ground
🍻🍺🍔
they need to stop calling them zero turn cause they are really 3 point turn mowers. Unless you dont care about ruts that is
It’s not a three-point turn mower. It’s a zero turn. LOL You’re supposed to turn on a dime. But the stationary inside wheel should be moved backwards.
It's a zero turn not a three point turn 🤣🙄
You lost me at pivot. Snooze.
