snowmoboyle 33 #1 Posted June 16, 2015 What are the advantages of a front mount mower? Picked up a tractor tonight with a 42" RD and a front lift kit - I can kinda see the point? Seems like it'd be hard to mow!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dennys502 245 #2 Posted June 16, 2015 The main advantage is not having the grass flattened by the tires before mowing. The groundsmasters were a good example. The z's aren't too bad either. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CasualObserver 3,410 #3 Posted June 16, 2015 One of the big selling points was being able to cut under low tree branches and other such low overhangs that were not possible to drive under. The front steering of using a front mounted mower on a tractor leaves it at somewhat of a disadvantage when compared to the maneuverability of rear steer machines like the Toro Groundsmaster or F-series Deeres. Something nice about it though is that it puts the mower right there in your field of vision while you're driving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
