  • My NEW ALTOZ TRX766 Zero Turn Mower on Tracks | Machine Overview
    In this video I go to D&L Equipment in Kensett Iowa to pickup my NEW Altoz TRX766 Zero Turn Mower on Tracks.
    I have been looking for a zero turn mower to speed up the time it takes to mow my yard which is about 4.5 acres. I have a few slopes and was told the track mowers do really good on slopes and it was something a little different and looked heavy built.
    As I am posting this video I have only mowed my yard one time but really like everything about it. It definitely sped up my mowing time and did a nice job mowing. I felt turning on the ends it was very easy on the turf below and the machine rides and handles very nicely. Overall I think this is a great machine.

    That’s how I was when I got my first zero turn it used to take me about three hours on my regular John Deere riding mower , knocked that time down to like half and when I was done I wished I still had more to do

    Mike great video . When I was mowing 22 acres each week . I used 2 JD zero turn mowers one with the deck in the front and the other one had a Deck underneath like the one you have . I used the one with deck in front to get closer to the grave stones and the other for larger areas of course I used a weedeater to trim around the stones which I did first . I just spun around and usually mowed that way & Yes they are fast due the zero turn radius Sorry for the paragraph

      I actually bought a set of blades, blade bolts and a deck belt when I picked the machine up. You just never know. I remember years ago mowing my yard and sucked a stone up and bent a blade. I had mowed that same spot hundreds of times before and it just came out of nowhere.

    That mower looks sweet, congratulations ! I have a John Deere ZTR that I bought new about 8 years ago and it runs great, the only negative on it was the front tires got constant flats so I replaced my front air tires with solid rubber tires and they absolutely work great. ZTR's can tear up the yard a bit on really tight turns but if you round out the turns its not an issue for me. ---- Looks like maybe you need to put in a piece of Tile drainage pipe in that low area of the yard and run it to the ditch to help keep the yard drained.

      Yes on the tile I just bought this property about two years ago and that’s on the list 3 different fields dump into this ditch that runs through my backyard. I already fixed a tile blow out that was here when we bought this place. I’m not sure a new tile will solve this on the big rains but we’ll see

  • @JCLawn51
    @JCLawn51 Місяць тому

    I mow for a living. Your grass is so thick the tracks don't be an issue except for around the house more than likely. If it is an issue, you just might need to alternate where your tracks run while mowing around the house. Like you might want to push mow along the house so you can move your tracks over 2 ft for a couple mowings. Also alternate your direction and ruts at the end of the passes won't be a big deal. You will only scrape the grass blade off, not the roots.

    • @farmhandmike

    Is there an issue with the tracks coming off if mowing on a stepper incline or is that just a safety rule they put on there.
    I mow ditch banks stepper than 25 degrees and I'm interested in one of these mowers is why I'm asking.

    If your Kaw 1000 is carbed, it is 35 HP. If EFI, it is 38.5 HP. I have the latter on one of my zero turns. Since there is no choke next to the throttle lever on yours, I am guessing you have the EFI as well. That engine is fly by wire in that there is no throttle cable. It is electronic throttle control. Good on fuel and the most actual certified HP of any mower engine out, including the 40 HP Vanguard.
