  • We bought a Toro Z-Master 4000 HD (Model Number 74054) with 25.5 Horse power Kawasaki Engine and 60" cutting Deck. With the big 26" wheels and the air suspension seat, the ride should be pretty smooth. Rebekah mows about 4 Acres of our property each week and should go a lot quicker now.

    I work at a toro dealership and the 4000 and 4000 hdx series are one of the best mower in the line excellent quality and the Kawasaki engiens are very heavy duty never go with anything else

    You definitely made the right decision on mowers.
    I work for a municipality in my city and I have a whole fleet of Toro diesels.
    I would recommend a Toro Z Master 7500D for your property.
    The torque of the diesel is unreal over gasoline.
    Great video guys!

    Awesome job Rebekah. For the life of me, I don't know why Zero-turn mowers don't have Diff Lockers. They get stuck way to easily. You're both living the life, most of us wish we could.

    • @malamberson
      @malamberson 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Zero turn mowers doesn’t have a axle as in a tractor type mower each wheel has its own drive motor. The wheel that must do the turning is the one that is stuck. I actually put small 4 wheeler tires on my old zero turn which helped a lot when I would get too closed to the edge of a wet spot. Hope this helps to understand why zero turns dont have a way to lock both rear wheels together.

    In the past 20 years I’ve had 3 commercial grade ZT mowers to take care of my 4 acres of yard here in the MO Ozarks. I mow from early april to late October every year so i put a lot of hours mowing.
    The first was a 60” Dixie chopper. It was totally reliable but it nearly beat me to death riding it. They may have a better suspension now. The next was a 2006 Gravely 260Z 60”. It has been a real work horse and totally reliable. I maintain it well and it’s now got 4500 hours in 18 years on the clock. I decided with that much use i would be prudent to replace it before it became a maintenance hog.
    Like you and Rebekah, I opted for the Toro Z Master 4100 60” and in limited use so far this summer its been the best of the 3. I currently have only 28 hours on the clock.
    With a 31 hp Kawasaki it has more power and gives a smoother ride thanks to the very comfortable adjustable seat. Time will tell if it will last as long as the Gravely 260Z.
    I have noted that the 31 hp Kaw is more thirsty than the 27 hp Kohler on the Gravely. Perhaps the economy will improve as i get more hours on it. I currently get about 2 gph at 2/3 throttle. That means i need to refill the 10 gallon tank every time i mow. The Gravely and the Dixie chopper both had 2 saddle tanks with a total of 12 gallons of gas. I got about 1.5 gph of economy so as it takes me 3 hours to mow the entire yard i could mow two times without refueling. I’ll be interested to hear what your economy is. Thats my only complaint on the Toro so far.
    I really appreciate your channel. The content variety and video quality are some of the best I’ve seen on YT. Keep up the great work. 👍

    Don't get too hung up on the spindles being aluminum housings. Keep in mind the commercial and professional spindles are able to be rebuilt rather than replaced. I worked at a place that beat the daylights out of a zmaster and did 0 maintenance for years and it survived. Keep a spare set of blades on hand and keep up on the maintenance, including the wheel drives, and you'll get many, many, years of service from it.

  • @jakeschisler7525

    I spent the money in 2015 and bought a commercial grade Gravely and have had to replace one spindle. This place we bought in Missouri these people when they were done with objects they let them lay. Two weeks ago mowing a small pasture hit barb wire and it stopped the blades right now. With my heavy duty lawnmower Jack and a few minutes of removing the blades I was back in business. Love the zero turns,I had 2 of them and one lawn tractor and would always go with a zero!

  • @crslyrn
    @crslyrn 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Nice purchase there guys. That beast of a mower should last well beyond 10 years. Especially the way you've been trying to take care of your equipment. One bad thing about a zero turn is that usually once you start spinning in the mud you're going to be stuck before you know it.

  • @98fishingfool
    @98fishingfool 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Working at a toro dealer, you can adjust the deck lift back if it makes it easier. The golf bolt can be moved to either of the two settings. Make sure you do a 10hr engine oil change and the transmission filters and fluid at 75hrs and you won’t have any issues. The 74054 toro’s are an awesome machine!

A gas transfer pump, they have them at Harbor Freight. I think around $11.00, At my age, that 5 gallons of gas gets heavier each year. This is the best thing since sliced bread.

    Helpful tip, when mowing around the fence blow the grass away from the fence. It makes it easier to weed eat along the fences. Teaching wy grandson how to mow with my 48" Toro zero turn.

    Really good choice of mower, we purchased the Toro Titan 60” last year and it is a beast. We live on steep ground and I wrecked it 7 times before I bought some Wanda ATV sand tires, it tears up the grass every now and again but I only mow about a half acre we care about, the rest is pasture. The forged deck and welded front end are seriously heavy duty. Likewise, that seat is the bomb, they call it “my ride” on the residential mowers, and I’ll mow for six hours on it with no real fatigue. Great episode, look forward to more. Cheers, Dan and Elle

  • @gmass7238

    Word of advice, take a leaf blower and keep the deck of the mower blown off, this will save wear on the spindle bearing and help keep the belts running cooler.. A leaf blower will help you out a bunch in keeping the mower in top shape...

    First thing I noticed, was how extremely close it could cut to your raised beds, that was actually really impressive! I bought a husqvarna 4wd front deck mower this spring, and it does not cut that close even that its a commercial mower, so that is a really nice thing!
    Second thing, was how it blasted through that very high grass, so I think you bought yourself a winner here!

    Looks like a great upgrade. I did that at my place a decade ago and it was really worth getting back those hours every week. Next step is figure out the areas of the yard that are slowing the cut down and redesign features in those areas; like instead of flower beds etc with sharp corners use gentle arcs and let the wetland grow, or fence in additional areas so the animals take care of the more challenging mowing areas saving on the feed bill too.

    Toro has always been a top shelf product. It seems Rebecca is a top shelf operator as well. For getting used to a new machine she really handles it well. Zero turn isn't a good fit with our property due to all the slopes we have. I know a lot of folks share by them though.
    Seeing it is a Toro I 'd like to share an anecdote if I may. Back around 1979 a friend d I worked with in Texas was looking at a new lawnmower for his 2-1/2"acre property. Every day at lunch for at leastvtwo months he looked at different dealers and models. He finally decided on a Toro. It turned out that the service manager for the Toro dealer lived very close to my friend so the manager said he would deliver the new mower free of charge since he would be coming home anyway.
    The big day arrived and this service manager was obviously very proud of his product. He unloads the machine, hops on the seat and says to my friend something to the affect, "Now THIS is a mowing machine!" and proceeds to charge across my friend's lawn. The engine roared, he moved at impressive speed, but no grass was cut. Not one blade of grass. The service manager, very red-faced stopped the machine, did a few checks and loaded the machine back onto his rig. He turned to my friend and through gritted teeth told him he would bring the mower back tomorrow and "By God IT WILL CUT GRASS!" His technicians had failed to install the idler pullies on the deck. My friend and I wished we could have been flies on the wall when that manager took that machine back to his shop. We suspect somebody, as or multiple somebodies, got an earful that morning. True to his word the machine returned the next evening and cut flawlessly. I don't know how many years of use my friend got out of it since I took another job and lost touch with him, but every time I see a Toro mower I think of him and this event. Lol

    Rebecca is doing great on the zero Turn Mower. I purchased one this year also and it's a learning experience for sure. I crashed into everything the first time....lol
    From my experience, I found that if I raise the deck height to 4 inches, it cuts just a well, is less load on the engine and still looks great because even at 4 inches, it's all the same height.
    Good luck and keep up the great videos

  • @stephensaasen8589
    @stephensaasen8589 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The big tires on the mower is a great idea! Being it's commercial grade, that thing may very well last you a lifetime, considering its built to run almost 8 hours a day during mowing season and you only would mow not much more than 5 hours a week. Also, if you don't have your steers on any strict diet and they haven't been sent to the butcher, they will just love eating those corn stalks after you harvest your corn. Thanks for the demo on the mower. I have 1.25 acres I mow with a 42 inch rider and it takes me about 3 hours. A zero turn like that could do my yard in about 40 minutes.

    My 2006 Scag Tiger Cat with the Briggs & Stratton engine was a disaster. Undersized starter would not start below 50F and then one year after purchase, factory scratch on engine split line caused the gasket to get sucked into the engine. Dealer and Scag were of no help. I ate the cost and had the local garage mechanic fix it. Gave the mower and leaf catcher to my neighbor for $1000 and he is still driving it with the starter problem. Loved the mower quality, so I bought another Scag with a different engine from a different dealer. I have a 2014 Scag 52" Tiger Cat zero turn mower with 26" tires and 27 Hp Kawasaki engine, steel spindle. Love it. Welded steel plate deck - not bent sheet metal. Tall grass - no problem and should last rest of my life. Caution: the zero turn mowers do not traverse across steep hills very well. You have to go up and down but not across (they slide).

    I SO identify with Rebekah's struggles. I mow with a commercial JD Z930M, and it's SO EASY to get that thing stuck next to the pond. Sometimes it just doesn't look as wet and soggy as it is, and that rear-wheel drive can really bury itself fast. The only thing I do NOT like about the JD is that it doesn't have the air ride seat. It'll definitely beat you to death if you're trying to hurry. Congratulations on your new purchase, guys. I hope you'll enjoy it for years to come!

    We made the same major upgrade on mowers but probably 10 years ago. We ended up going with Dixie Chopper. Definitely a strong machine like yours. hard to compare apples to apples with what I have since I got mine so long ago. Great features on the toro with the phone slot. That is one thing I struggle with is where to securely store the phone. looks like a comfy ride and the commercial grade mowers are beasts for cutting both for speed and what they will cut. I was amazed. only bad thing is zero turns aren't really a fan of hilly ground.

    I got this mower specifically to be able to drive it through a 36 inch door th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend or gate It is a little tight with the grass deflector installed but has more clearance with the deflector replaced by the recycler/mulcher. This model appears to be popular and a little harder to find for that reason. I can't judge the dependability as I have only mowed the yard twice but everything else on the mower is very nice and working fine so far. I added options for the run hour timer, arm backrests, recycler/mulcher, towing bracket, deck lift assist and cover.

  • @kipcudd7253

    After owning many zero-turns and trying to mow wet grass look under your deck to see how much grass is packed in the mower deck. And yes they get stuck easy. Gotta watch for wet spots as they get stuck easy. Your 4wheeler will pull it out pretty easy. She really put it thru the ringer. Same motor as my Country Clipper but mine is a single joystick control meaning one hand is free to move branches out of the way and my deck flips up 90° for cleaning and maintenance and no plastic parts on it. Made in Iowa by a family business USA made.

      Love it for sure. I got the Kawa engine and joystick control. That has worked
      out wonderfully well. For an 80 year old, that flip up deck is a god send.

      Yep, I heard that statement for just about every ZTR salesdroid as a
      mantra. When I dug in for details I found out that EVERY time they
      were comparing a ZTR with a larger, wider deck and bigger, more
      powerful engine to a Garden Tractor with a smaller, narrower deck
      and a smaller, less powerful engine! Well D'uh, that's an apples to
      figs comparison.......
      That's not why I chose my CC ZLT and have never made a time-to-mow
      comparison. The XLT is bigger and more powerful than my old Husqvarna
      Garden Tractor and is faster naturally, but mainly, it makes a better cut
      on the wild grass (former hay field) that we have. It rides well. But mostly
      it is that tip up deck that is the true reason for my purchase. For someone
      with little remaining physical strength, it is a god-send. I clean the deck
      and touch up the blades after each mow of the property and it is SO
      MUCH easier!!!
      Country Clipper is not the only make with a tilt up deck. I was looking
      at a Hustler FlipUp with push button, electric deck lift and tilt up.
      But no dealer had one or could promise one in anything less that 6
      months (Thank you Mr. Virus!). Got my XLT in one month and am very
      happy with it - cuts well quickly, rides nice and SAVES MY BACK!
      Oh and yeah I have mobility issues and use a mower as a gas powered
      wheelchair to get to our mailbox WAY out there at the farm road. With
      my new mower, I look better doing it. HA!

    My recommendation is to leave those covers off Evan. What I have found is that grass will eventually get trapped under them to such an extent that it will bind the belt up and you'll end up throwing the belt. This happened to me 3 times before I finally wizened up. Over the last 3 years now since they've been off it hasn't happened once and it makes cleaning after a cutting a breeze - just take the leaf blower to it.
