Thanks for doing this video! I picked up my new FW15 yesterday. I believe I’ll get a collection system for leaf season. Well done!

I got this mower as well last month. I don’t think I’ll get this leaf catcher. Seems way too cumbersome. I got the mulch kit on there now. Need to try it out now.

I'll be getting the bagger kit for mine as I bag or discharge I don't mulch dry grass only no wet grass for the bagger but if you spray mo deck on adapter tube and plastic fitting it should keep it free flowing

Nice set up. What keeps the front of the mower from raising up during use?
@HandyGuy2016 5 жыл бұрын
It has a front counter weight to help with the balance.
@crzyworm623 5 жыл бұрын
Woah that is way more $$ than I was anticipating it was going to be. I feel like I need that counter weight without having a bagger. Curious to see how it performs, just wish it was easier to swap from mulch to bag.

When are you getting a Red Magic Max Fill 2 for the Z3’s?? Ha! I LOVE that they have a beefy bagger for this mower. This mower is turning out to be JUST what I needed. Going to make a rack/track and side ramp for it... instead of having to unload the big mower.. can pull this thing off the side on a light, Bi-fold side ramp and a track (2- angle iron for a track with sides.. straps.. etc). This mower is perfect... as the Honda hydrostatic drive doesn’t last long. And... a ferris Hydro 32”? Ahhh... yes please. And not as heavy and bulky as a 36” is.. are those tweels on the front ???

Hard to compare to anything else that is 21 or 22 or even 30". It's almost the cut width of a stander or walk behind, but in a push mower platform. I love it, and it's worth it to me for my business goals.

I’m very disappointed with Ferris. A rear bag system with tube mounted to the side discharge. Seriously! What were they thinking. That will easily clog when mowing wet grass. Will be a nightmare when trying to bag crabgrass. Will stick to the tube like glue.
