Thank you for this informative and concise video. I recently purchased a farm, and it came with a stand up mower, which I have no idea how to use, but Emma resourceful Farm her and knew if I looked and research I would figure it out. Although it took about 10 stupid videos before I found yours. Thank you I will subscribe and follow you!
Good techniques. I do professional lawn care, been in it for 14 seasons. I am so grateful that I operate a Scag V-ride 2 61in. Speeds up the route. Only thing I don't like verses a v-ride 1 is they did away with the walk behind. Have to stay on platform to run operate the machine
Blake Gambriel that scag cut is awesome I demoed the old v ride and couldn’t get used to how far back on the mower you were, the new one looks like you are more in between the wheels. I had a wright before this one and actually like this one better, but I do think anyone who doesn’t want a stand on in there fleet is missing out!
Some great tips. Really good to see someone putting this information out there, as an inexperienced operator can do a ton of damage! That bobcat is a really nice looking machine. Actually, learned on a 48” bobcat, belt driven walk behind, but, have not tried any of their stand up models(we always use the wrights). Anyway, just like to add a little tip that helped me immensely. When going straight up extremely steep hills the natural tendency is too lean forward. However, if you plant your feet even, keep your body upright and pull on the outsides of the middle bar like you are trying to do a chin up, the machine will not tilt back. The motion feels counter-intuitive, but, try and just trust it.
Hey man, can a stander mower be able to go up and down ramps in and out of truck bed? I use ramps in my set up and have a Ferris Fw 15 which it’s worked great have a 36” WB as well. Never driven a stander so I’m not sure if they could go up and down ramps in truck bed. What you think? Thanks so much!
Just found your channel. I run an exmark vantage. That bobcat looks like a good machine. About 15 years ago I ran a bobcat ztr. It was a good mower for the price. I should checkout their standon
Guth Lawn Care Washington, IL thanks for watching ! The quick cat is definitely worth checking out the bob cats have come along way over the ones from 15 years ago I think you will be impressed. I have used the toro grandstander some and the operator platform was so far behind the mower I never got the right feel for it . The quick seemed much more nimble to me .
We don’t have a lot of hills in eastern NC where I live . I don’t have any accounts that can demonstrate on any longer I have used this quick cat on some hills and it does very good across the face of the hill with your body leaning out over the up hill tire . I had a wright stander rh it had small tires and was not good across the face of a hill but would climb straight up very steep hills that a Ztr couldn’t climb . The bob cat quick I will have to practice going straight up steep slopes to become comfortable with it because the operator platform is slightly behind the back tires the front tires will pick up if you don’t lean way foward
Doug Smith from the ones I have used stand on mowers are better on hills u want a mower with large tires and an operator position that is more centered like the wright zk or even the bobcat .... the toro grand stand and hustler and the old scag stand on did not seem as good on hills as the first two
Maria Pet Fooled DVD actually the stand on in my opinion is safer in a rollover situation.. you can just step off of it if it starts to flip ... and you can balance it better with you body than one that you are sitting on
@@PaulsPrimeCuts are those stand on mowers more fun to use? I only have a push mower and have no desire to get a lawn tractor but those stand on mowers look like they make mowing more like a fun ride rather than mowing the lawn as usual.
@@mrbubetube Yes, I enjoy them. More versatlie, safer and more compact so it can get into tighter spaces. The compactness makes it a bit tougher to work on though.
Mustang shelby I got some other equipment at the same time so I don’t know what the out the door price was the msrp is around 9k I got this one for $6900 ish
Hey paul im considering buying a quick cat but im concerned i wont fit well. Im 6foot3 and i feel slouched over on most stand on mowers other than wright. How tall are you and do you feel like you have good posture operating the unit?
Good video with lots of good tech BUT having been in video for many years remember audio is 51% of any video so I would suddgest using a separate audio recorder with lepel mic that way you can edit between cam audio and recording device in your pocket to get rid of unwanted noises. With that said I love the ducks crashing your video. Priceless
Mike Wood thanks ! I will be the first to admit my production value is low ! This video is just my kid filming me with an iPhone . I do need to get some better recording equipment and up my production if I’m going to do much more of this
MadMetalManiac74 I said gjssjhxzahjjhhhbokjdsssbgkknfdchutfjogfvkjgdlawn mower hthhfghhhlawnmowerjhvhvgvhggrasshhggvgggblablabla you really didn’t miss much😂
Paul's Prime Cuts dude.....even with bad sound this video has 42k views. That's damn good! Could have more with a little production value. I do all my videos on my phone using an app called kinemaster. Pretty easy to learn and when you get the hang of it your videos will pop. Im positive there was real good info here I just couldn't hear any of it.
Will be available for the stand on EDGE-MEN attaches to the professional walk-behind mowers converting the mower to a multi-tasking machine in seconds! It can edge, trench, cultivate, excavate planting pockets, install irrigation systems, small stumps, and root removal. th-cam.com/video/6Wa8nXSszr0/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/leiuv6ddHAk/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for your insight and expertise into mowing... the idea is you can continue straight through it with out having to turn around on the ditch bank ... you can make another pass running parallel to cut the bottom on both sides
@@PaulsPrimeCuts hahaha dang paul... what a classy response... Have you moved on with your life now that you didn't get the job mentioned above? 😂 I'm here for support if you're still upset he wouldn't hire you... it's not like you have a successful company already doing lots of nice yards and a nice property of your own...
Ferris mowers are junk. If it's got a Kawasaki engine you're lucky to get 1000 hours out of it before it starts burning a quart of oil every few hours, blowing blue smoke out the exhaust on startup, fowling the spark plugs and just running like crap. Not to mention everything on these mowers is a pain to work on if a part needs to be replaced. The decks are grass magnets and take forever to clean off due to the tight quarters. My company got one as a demo and purchased two of them because it had a comfortable seat and a spring suspension system which made for a cushy ride over bumps. But if you mow at full speed even on relatively flat land they cut like crap. I hate everything about these mowers. If you want something more dependable that cuts well, and is still made in the USA, Exmark is what you want.
Depends on where you are and what blades you use. Johnny mow goes over this with Ferris ICD decks in several videos. The overwhelming majority of lawn trucks have Ferris mowers. Toro/Exmark are great too, probably a bit better considering Toro has been #1 in turf care since Ferris was still Ferris Ubler milling and feed equipment
@@boneheadpeterson in what state? Almost never see Scagg anymore. Not in at least 15 years. No dealer support. Ferris, Toro, JD, and a mix of w/e cheaper brands.

Nice tips just got the new Kubota stand on which is the same as this one looks like a beast machine
What stand on you like or tested
Great video. Thanx
Nicely done!
Andrew Marshall Clay thank you!
Is that Bob Cat the same as a Bradley? They look similar. Have you had any issues with it? I’m asking because I’m interested in Bradley.
Looking forward to getting one and stepping my business to the next level
The King's Courtyard LCS you will love it!

Great tips🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Subcribed
Thanks
Try the backwards, blindfolded, one foot, tippy-toed, while drinking a coke method 😂
What a beautiful fucking neighborhood, god damn.
Love the ducks
How much does one of those machines cost?
Nicholas Jasmine msrp is about 10k u can get one for around 7k probably
very nice thanks
What brand is your mower?
dpm bob cat
So, RPM suggested your channel. Just subscribed. We are gonna get a stander soon. Nice vid.
J's Crazy Cutz, LLC those guys are awesome for doing that ! Love stand on mowers ! I have a wright also .... I gotta day check out the quick cat
Great channel man!
Thanks!
Yes sir 💪
Great video but I would have liked to seen you idle down before you killed the motor therefore when you started it up it would not be at full throttle
I still have that mower (and a few others) it’s got around 1200 hours on it now and is still running fine
Just found your channel. I run an exmark vantage. That bobcat looks like a good machine. About 15 years ago I ran a bobcat ztr. It was a good mower for the price. I should checkout their standon

THOSE DUCKS 🤣
To me it looks like sitting down on one would be a bit more safer when travelling on rough bushy terrain???

I like the stand on bobcat and procat.
Vic Rosdahl thanks for checking out the video I have had a lot of bob cat mowers over the years I’m a big fan
What is the price for that machine ?

Paul's Prime Cut - thanks and great videos
Paul's Prime Cuts damn you got a hell of a deal then. That’s just about cost on a 52.

Team_1j_Jont - I just put your question in my video I uploaded tonight.. “fall preemergent “
Thank you for the video, I saw one at the sealer with 350 hrs for $4,000 do you think is a good deal?
Key Tronic what size?
48” the same model you showed
Key Tronic 52 in the video
Thanks man
Tyler Saylor yes sir thanks for checking it out
what did you say
When you turn the unit around you should turn in the street that way you’re not tearing the lawn up
....and 3 point turn.

Sorry the one I saw is the 648R 350hrs for $4000
Key Tronic I think a new one is 5 or 6k so 4 sounds a little steep to me .... it’s a great mower
Thank you. Happy New Year. May the Lord give you all the desires of your heart and make the 2020 the best year ever.

Driving into a ditch will leave most of it unmowed. Bad idea, looks terrible.
Thanks for your insight and expertise into mowing... the idea is you can continue straight through it with out having to turn around on the ditch bank ... you can make another pass running parallel to cut the bottom on both sides
What about hills? Can you do a video on hills not just ditches?
Doug Smith I gave you a reply it came out in the public comments instead of a direct reply back to you hope it helps
Terrible turn technique my guy
You would never work for me starting and stopping a motor at full throttle.
