harleyjj 2 #1 Posted May 13, 2011 I am looking at purchasing a mower deck for my C-111 and was curious what the largest deck that I can use with out over working the tractor would be? I am purchasing a home on almost 2 acres and my push mower is definately not going to cut it, no pun intended :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don1977 604 #2 Posted May 13, 2011 I would say a 42" would be the best for a C-111, but a 48 will fit. The 48 would be to much mower if the grass got ahead of you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can whlvr 991 #3 Posted May 14, 2011 i agree about a 48 an 11 hp could do it but it would be too much over time,i have different tractors with different hps and when i put the 42 on the k241 i have to slow down,when the grass gats longer, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rydogg 186 #4 Posted May 14, 2011 I just sold my C111 but I mowed my yard with it before delivery just to make sure everything was working correctly, it had a 42" rear discharge deck that worked great but I wouldn't go any bigger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tarcoleo 119 #5 Posted May 14, 2011 Can't speak about the Briggs 11 hp on a C-111, but on my C-111 with a 11 hp Honda and a 48" SD deck, there are no problems. My two acres are quite flat and I don't let the grass get out of hand. Tom in RI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JC 1965 1,528 #6 Posted May 14, 2011 :) I would go with the 42" mower deck.I don't like to work my tractors any harder than I have to. Just my opinion. :WRS: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
