    Hills and slopes can be a challenge to mow. Don't take risks when choosing equipment to mow on slope. Make sure you use equipment that is designed to mow on the slope you have. Mowing on slopes can be extremely dangerous if you are not properly equipped!
    The unique design qualities of Ventrac has made a world renowned statement for its ability to work on steep slopes. Features like hydrostatic all-wheel drive, downhill braking, a wide stance with dual wheels & low center of gravity, combine to make Ventrac a safer solution than most equipment on hills and slopes up to 30°. The best part of this is that when you are done mowing slopes, you can attach any other attachment to do other jobs around the property.

    Ventrac is the real deal. I'm impressed in how Ventrac is confident to let 3rd party reviewers have a go at evaluating their gear without hesitation or reservation.

    I have one. The hand controls take some getting used to. I have a Ventrac callus right at the base of my palm! It is an amazing machine. Can't count how many times people stop their cars with the look of "damn I wondered how they mowed that!". Was mowing a steep slope straight up and down as opposed to sideways near a football field full of kids practicing, had my back to them. When I finally turned around EVERYONE was standing there in amazement watching me. Worth the price if you have lots of dangerous (for other mowers) slopes. SAFELY gets the job done. Although you can still get in trouble if not careful. Ended up in a storm pond once!! Had to winch it out. Started it back up and kept on going! Love the thing.

    I'm a film student at NYU, and I have to say, for about a year or two I have fallen in love with both this product, and the production quality of the videos your company produces. Out of all of my subscriptions, the one I often am most excited to see is Ventrac. Which many people would surely find a bit weird, but every video is just so wonderfully put together. there is never a sense of dullness or repetition. Keep up the good work, and I can't wait to see the next video!

    I drove a steiner and one kf these ventracs on a golf course i worked at in north jersey from 2001-2004. Place was built in the side of a mountain. We had some steep, monster hill, mostly tee boxes. The ventrac is an animal. It handled any terrain i put it on. I would recommend it to any golf facility. I might upload and share some pics later.

    • @ventrac
      @ventrac  4 роки тому +2

      All of our engines carry special certifications from their manufacturers for this. The Kawasaki can handle 30 degrees continuous in any conditions. The rest of the engines are rated at 30 degrees in the same direction for 10 minutes intermittent. That means, all you have to do is change directions at least every ten minutes and you're good to go. We don't see failures in the field from oil system limitations.

    • @ventrac
      @ventrac  4 роки тому

      It does well overall. If they're big it will obviously require slowing down but for the most part, the tractor will absorb most of the impact without a lot of disruption because the frame oscillates and can ride up, down, and over imperfections without raising any wheels off the ground. At any given time, one corner of the tractor can raise 8" above grade while still keeping contact. The deck also floats enough to take up a lot of these imperfections.

    Is it possible to make the seat angle adjustable so you could sit straight instead of bent over?

      Not in current form with the way that the seat attaches to the tractor. A pendulum type seat also negatively impacts center of gravity and makes hillside performance marginally worse, which we're not huge fans of.

    Wonder how it goes on GRASS that hasn't been cut for a few weeks ! But looks like a handy machine.

    I feel like the market for such a beastly machine is a bit small.
