Now that's some long grass! The bx is one of the BEST mowers i have ever used, i have used tons and tons of different mowers and commercial zero turns in my day and NOTHING compares to how well the bx mows with the 60" deck, I'm still baffled every time i mow with mine.

Hallelujah on wearing your seat belt, I learned that the hard way too! The first time I had the front end loader on the tractor and started down the hill, it took off and I didn't have my seatbelt on and luckily I was able to hold on to the steering wheel when the engine died from me bouncing off the seat. I was able to turn sideways enough to stop the tractor before I bailed off. I have learned to have great respect for this tractor!

💥 That is a steep grade. Nice to see the BX can maintain traction. Great camera angles! Nice work!

Thanks for posting this . I have a bx 2680 and was a little concerned about tackling the slope I have...But it looks like I can do it as long as I don't turn sideways.

I can hear old Steve Erwin saying "Danga Danga Danga!" , But I feel you. I live in the mountains as well and I sometimes have to do the same. I have ag tires and wheel weights with spacers on mine to help a little, but it's still an adventure!

Great video i have a 2020 BX2380 it feels very unstable if you try any sideways mowing on hills. I went out and installed 3” wheel spacers and what a difference the machines feels very stable now.

I have a BX2350 and my 1 1/2 acres slopes from 12 to 23 deg. 2 weeks ago I was going down the hill close to the fence and it popped out of gear and by the time I figured how to stop it, I had plowed into my 3 week old chain link fence. I have a bungee cord on the gear knob now to prevent that from happening again. It's kind of scary when a 1500 lb. machine just goes into free wheel!

Great vid Ben. Thank you. Can you mow that slope if the grass has any moisture on/in it? Or does it have to be completely dry. Are your rear tires loaded? I'm thinking about switching to a turf tire. Destroying my hill with the AGs. Thanks Ben

It’s easy to overestimate the degrees on a slope. Video and pictures tend flatten a slope. On my place the steepest slopes are around 18 degrees, this is besides gullies where it’s probably a 50 degree slope.

Dang that sounds like my Troy Bilt TB 2246 while mowing

I've really been enjoying your videos with your bx. How often are you removing the deck and isn't it a hassle. It seem people are steered away from the Kubota drive over deck. I'm curious why.

You did not explain how the tractor is set up. What modifications (weights, tires, tires filled?).

I highly suggest upgrading to radial tires like the Carlisle Versa Turf for shenanigans like this. I only have a Cub Cadet LT1050 right now and I'm side mowing what might be a 40°-46° slope (or at least most of it) on R1 ag tread tires on the back.

Those Roll bars aren’t for looks. They will flip. You can bet on that. I was taught to back up a grade that steep. Four wheel drive will keep it from spinning. Stay safe

What slope app did you happen to use to find the angle? I have a cab tractor and I feel like I am sitting so high and going to flip all the time ahahaha.

I wonder if a Kubota GR2120(full time 4x4,21 hp Kubota diesel,turf tires)would tackle this hill too?
