grinchsr 599 #1 Posted February 21, 2015 I have a 314H and would like to use it to pull my TRAC VAC in the fall. Are hydro's happy pulling something other than a lawn cart? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MalMac 1,328 #2 Posted February 21, 2015 It will do just fine, when on leaf duty just pay attention to any leaf build up around the pump and fan. Keep it cleaned out to prevent any chance of heat build up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
floor-it 11 #3 Posted February 21, 2015 I have a PeCo Leaf Machine that adds lots of weight to my WH 518H or the WH 312H tractor. The only thing I have to watch is the added weight when the 11 Cubic Foot Leaf Bag is full and when going up my steep hills. The PeCo leaf machine has a 4 HP Briggs and large 8" diameter flex tubes for moving the leaves from the mower deck thru the impeller and into the leaf bag. You will never have trouble if your Hydro Cooling Fan is intact and driven at the proper speed. Gary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ben06351 19 #6 Posted February 23, 2015 I use my 520HC to pull the largest Cyclone Rake they make. Just keep her clean with fresh fluids and grease she will do fine. I also add wheel weights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
