Evaluation, One Year Later. I failed to state in this video that for my yard with slopes, the 48" mowing deck was the right choice over the 54" and 60" decks.

Nice video. I noticed, though, the deck scalping rollers are not all the way down. That may be causing some of your problems.

Great mower. A little lawn leveling may help with your scalping issue, until then you could raise your mowing height only in those trouble spots. Keep your blades sharp and balanced, and they will help you out in many ways. Mow safe!

mow up the slopes and down in reverse in the areas it skids. Zero truns slide much easier going forward down hill. It's a weird sensation 1st time going backwards down hill but you'll get used to it just go slow. My property has much steeper hills. I used to slide down all the time going forward.Finally I did a little research and came across the suggestion recently. now I'm working on trying to repair the damged skid marked areas because I'm no longer tearing up my yard. A k turn also helps not digging into the grass on turning around. The idea is not to lock up 1 tire while the other is in motion keeping both wheels moving. Most people (at leat I did) try turning around as fast as they can.Making your zero turn actually zero turn will dig into the yard.Also maybe obvious (you're probably not doing this)but not mowing when the grass is wet. I won't touch my hills if it's even slightly wet.

I’ve had my mz5225 for twelve years I mow 3 acres or a little more of uneven ground out in the country. Tough as they get in the price range

Never turn downhill always turn uphill , this will minimize scalping. Also using the deck lift peddle is imperative on uneven ground. Last resort is lowering the lock wheel’s a touch. A floating axle will reduce the side slope mowing capabilities.

Try lowering the rollers on your deck. That may prevent some of the scalping.

Great video, beautiful property and awesome awesome super nice mower! I run a lawn care landscaping business and started with an older but similar model mower. It’s not that you “aren’t the smartest guy” it’s just that these mowers even with the bagger and counter balance are very very lightweight in comparison to other more heavier commercial units. Therefor they do what you are reffering to when they skid or break traction.

It might help to get tweels for the rear tires. I have a hilly side and back yard, but I don't have any of those issues. The tweels are much wider and keep me grounded better on hills, plus you don't have to worry about flats or tire pressure.

got one of these 3 weeks ago, mowed my 5.5 acre horse property that has no horses. it did great, the pastures had not been cut all summer, were 2 ft tall grass and weeds. Had to make two passes in the deep stuff but the whole place looks like a lawn now. Engine is very powerful, I have the Kawasaki. I have Z254F special edition which has very aggressive tread tires.

Use your 22-inch walk-behind on those few trouble spots?

I don't see what the problem is? You own a premium brand. I can tell you that Kawasaki engine is tried and tested! You might consider the use of a skid steer with a power rake attachment in order to level out those problem areas and then plant something other than sod!

I bought a Husky 48 and wish I had not. I had an old Gravely and the only reason I didnt buy another one was because the local dealer treats non professional yard care people like crap. You can take your mower in and it will sit there for months before they even look at it. But the Husky drives terrible. There is no "finesse" like the Gravely in turning or just close call driving. It lurches and bucks and digs holes all over the place no matter how slow I go or how careful I try to be. The way you lock it down so it does not move is so ridiculous. Plus, you have to work and make sure you pull the handles 100 percent in so it can move. Never Husky again.

I cut at 3in where do you have your deck set at . I have a Husqvarna I use at work. It’s a little bit bigger. It has two 5 gallon tanks three blades. Can you adjust the deck on that model .

Hi Ron. I have the same machine and have good luck so far. I have been looking for front end weights but unsuccessfully. I can not find your comment about where to find them. Would you mind listing it again for me?

Use the foot pedal to raise it a bit where you are scalping maybe
