This is the kind of real world videos I like where he goes over rough terrain and not a smooth golf course like lawn.

Wow thanks for this video clip. I have been reading about this mower for a few weeks now and your film has convinced me this is the right mower for my property.

Cheers, exactly the video I needed. I’ve got an acre of goat land with a couple of about 35 degree areas. It’s good to be able to see the mower is capable of doing what the dealer said it could before I purchase. The mower is well priced but is still a significant purchase.

Looks amazing. I believe EGO is doing something similar with their updated Z6 zero turn coming in 2023. They both using steering wheels though. Maybe EGO will offer a lap bar version. That would be a game changer!

@kdegraa Жыл бұрын

It turns out the steering wheel on the Ego mower only controls the back wheels, not the front. The front wheels are free spinning castors. So this mower behaves pretty well exactly the same way as an Ego zero turn mower because this is what it is.

The mulching plug is a nightmare to install on this thing. If you can make a video tutorial i'm totally up for it, and it looks like i'm not the only one to find it absolutly terrible. Nice video thought !

Have you used any of the other cub cadet models with the steering wheel ?I have bigger model that has the steering wheel and have trouble with the front grip while on slopes.i lowered the air psi that helps but dosent fix the problem.

@MachineryNation Жыл бұрын

Yes, we have used them all. The only time we have seen this is when the tracking was slightly out on the front wheels. It made the mower drag to one side even when going up and down the slope and loading on ramps. Might be worth checking 👍🏼

Just because you have a beard doesn't make you an authority on mowers. My wife does like sticks she loves the steering wheel. Only thing I personally don't like about this mowers they don't have a floating deck unlike my sc2400 yanmar with I might add has front and rear pto three point hitch and is just a powerhouse! You can have your green machine which rates right up there with a John Deere which is also a piece of garbage!

A zero turn machine, of any kind is absolutely stupid. Yes it might be more comfortable for ppl not used to running a machine where you control movement independently each side. But movement is much more precise when operator has precise control over the wheels/ tracks on.each side independently
