Hey all,
Some time ago I asked about the easiest way to remove my 60" Haban deck from my 2082. I had been jacking up the front of the tractor and dragging it out sideways. Several folks suggested blocking the deck wheels and driving backwards over the deck.
Well I tried this a few weeks ago with limited success. I tried it on level ground and the tractor just did not have the guts to get over the deck. I moved to an area with a significant grade and it worked, but still not as easy as I would have liked (still easier than dragging it out side ways though).
I have also had an issue (got hung up) when I was mowing a rough area of my property and I needed to back up, but it wouldn't budge.
My question is this:
How much power/torque should my Super have in reverse?
I know that I am due to change the Hy-Tran and filters this winter, but are there any other issues I should look at correcting. Maybe hydrostatic drives just aren't for me. Maybe I've just spent too many hours on bigger equipment and I get frustrated at this type of thing.
Please help,
Ross
