Default Moving Unloaded Trailer with XT2 LX46

I've got a tandem axle 20' (wood deck) car hauler I keep down in the yard.
Could I move this with my Cub Cadet rider? If so, is there a hitch mount that would bolt on?

It would be unloaded, and I'm not going far maybe 15', just to get it into better position in the yard? I can't pick it up by hand and move it, so it does have some tongue weight.

I've used my 125 to move my 16' car trailer around the yard. It works, and there is plenty of power, but the tongue weight makes the front end of the tractor very light. Any sudden application of power and it wants to do a wheel stand. I only did it once or twice and now I avoid doing it.

You might get away with it if you are VERY careful, but that old 125 has a lot of cast iron on the front end that newer models do not have, and it still wants to do wheel stands.

I would not recommend it.

By comparison the XT2 is like a tin can compared to the 125 which is more like a tank.

I googled towing capacity of the xt2.... Copy and paste:
and the maximum towing capacity is 250 lbs. The mower comes equipped with a standard tow hitch and the mulch kit is included with purchase. A double bagger is available for purchase separately.Mar

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
