I am not a Deere fan. Even less so with them moving to Mexico. That said that is a nice machine and perfectly suited for that application. Great video!
@@ChuckNorriz1122 thanks for watching and your comment. I agree, hate to see any company move jobs out of US especially an iconic one like Deere. We are very happy with that machine set up to mow on our hilly ground though. Have a great day and be safe!
Been running a GM1072r on the back of a 1025r and now 2025r for the last 2 years. Best mower/ implement I own. On the 1025r I should have had the tires filled and added wheel weights but it still worked great together. The 2025r only has fluid in the rear tires. Still a great combo
@@hickory40cattlecompany96 thanks for watching and your comment. Yes, completely normal. It looks worse than it is because the protective cover is not complete. It actually runs pretty smoothly. Have a great day and be safe!
Hi. Need to get a finishing mower! Sorry for going off topic, but I need help! I am having a rear hydraulic issue with my 1023e. It only lifts 3-4" then suddenly stops with a hard stop. Lowering is fine. May be like 5% of the time it will lift to full height. Front loader works fine. I added a gallon of low vis hydraulic oil yesterday. No difference. I have search TH-cam and some forums with NO luck. Thnx Thanks for the help Cheers David
@@davidmosscrop2374 thanks for watching and your comment. I am sorry you are having issues with your tractor. I don’t have much to offer but have you looked at all the linkages and pins and such to be sure nothing is out of place or binding. Also are the connections to the lift lever good? You already checked the oil and a hard stop seems like maybe a mechanical reason instead of a hydraulic one…. Maybe ? Best luck getting it sorted out and let us know what you find out. Have a great day and be safe!
Ive ran a 72 inch finish mower on my 2610 koiti that was 26 PTO HP and I could mow in high range 1 gear finish mowers don't need as much PTO power as the people who make them say they need
@CopperBarnHomestead It better be for what I paid for it. I could buy several used tractors and mower decks for what I paid for that thing. I keep about 10 acres finish cut with it. The rest I have a farm hand brush hog. We have 155 acres. Where I live in Texas, they consider it a "hobby ranch." Plenty of work to maintain for sure.
@@Tinfoilhat311Who woulda thought I’d have come across a fellow Texan in the comments of a “home steading” video. Anyhow, I wanted a Skag at first until I saw the price tag, so I opted for a Hustler Raptor with the Kawasaki engine 42’ deck. After investing 4 grand I hope I didn’t shoot myself in the foot with this one.
good video and job i am with maggie it's a bush hog because it hogs down bushes. john deere has got a recall on the mowers with a plastic gearbox in case you have one saw it on chicmechanic. take care, be safe and well.
@@johnwoody4905 thanks, yep I agree with you both! We will have to look into the recall, honestly not sure if we have any of those or not. Have a great day and be safe!

Question would you run the belly deck along with the finisher?
@@dispatch444 no but you could. Not sure how the power would be. We leave the belly deck on that mostly as a step to help Bill get on and off it.
You all are a awesome couple, god bless you both .
@@jimellis594 thank you so much! Appreciate you, have a great day and be safe
Nice hat, I have a tan one
@@daledirtbiker yep, good stuff for sure! Thanks for watching and your comment! Have a great day and be safe!

@@wraith3951 thanks for watching and sharing your experience. Yes it’s unbelievable how great these work together. Have a great day and be safe!
I’m curious about the vibration of the PTO shaft? Is that normal?

@@michaelparker4598 thanks for sharing. Yes that combo works very well on anyplace you would use a finish mower on . Have a a great day and be safe!
I'd be mowing that with my Ferris 72-inch zero turn at 15 mph. Make quick work of that.
@@Tinfoilhat311 thanks for watching and commenting. Sounds like a good mower! Have a great day and be safe!
