I noticed your hydro pump tanks had oil dust around the lids you need to file the brim of the tanks and replace the o rings around the LIDS. ED Wright has mentioned this in his videos
Do you prefer the tweels over the factory duals? We have a mix of tires and tweels, the tweels seem to slice softer ground than the tires. Do the dual tweels do better than the dual tires on steep hills? Great video, lots of good information!
I’ve actually never had regular duals on this mower. I bought it with the tweels on it. However my exmark has regular tires. I like the tweels better but they are stinking expensive!
@@douglaslawncare2843 I built my first house a little over a year ago, and Its 2 acres on a fairly steep hill. I have been using a shindaiwa trimmer to cut it. It takes me about 6-8 hours to do if i let the grass grow for 3 weeks.. Im to the point that i dont care how much i spend, i just want something that can handle the hill.
@@hanssenjonesI’m not sure if they’re sold overseas but you can take a look at AS 53 ES 2t (2-stroke) 4wd. Would be a lot cheaper 🥳 Just got one recently and tried it at about 45 degree incline and burnt about zero calories as the machine just dragged me uphill 😄
@@Hagearkitektur I actually ordered a ZK like a month after i made this comment. It is definitely the best lawn mower i have ever purchased. Its a little overboard for a homeowner to purchase, but i use it for my work and i cut my yard. I have a very steep yard. And it has been able to handle everything I've put it up against.
The hydro caps are vented on purpose. You have to much oil in your system. The tanks are overflow tanks that allow for the oil to expand when it gets hot. Caps are not bad.
Maneuvers great! It’s wide but the length is shorter than a zero turn so it fits and turns well. We maintain lots of big acreage properties and 5 cemeteries. It gets the job done quick. There are o my a couple lawns where we put the exmark on it instead.
Those hydro caps are on other mowers too and they all leak and pop off when hot. It’s bullshit and why hasn’t that been fixed in at least 5 years that I know of.
Best stander in the industry and you can stop and reverse back up a hill when facing straight down and no other mower I’ve had could do that
Take the black cap off the deck to get to the nut to change your blades.

Thanks! I can’t believe we’ve already put 75 hours on it!
Nice! I'm using jd quicktrack 36, 52 and 61.

Good point.
Thanks!
Will you be getting a leaf blade for this mower?
No
Would you use this mower on a steep hill?
Definitely
