Got the mower back...new U-Joints and bearings. Cut 5 acres over the past two days, and the vibrations are down dramatically. Much, much better. It still seems to vibrate a little more than it should though at full throttle...so I dropped the throttle to about 85-90% and that was perfect. It...

So late last season the driveshaft popped off the gearbox on my Bushhog ZT25 and burrowed it's way into the ground before killing the engine. I can only assume I didn't tighten the set screws properly when I had the gearbox off for servicing. I finished the last couple mows of the season with my...

So the mounting hex screws for my gear box keep backing out on my Bush Hog ZT25 zero turn. I've used lock washers (which is factory) and applied loctite. And after an hour and a half of mowing, they backed out again. You guys have any tips, tricks or ideas on how to keep those damn things from...

I have my deck apart, replacing the deck pulleys...and I was wondering if the bearings should be replaced while I have it apart? It has 415 hours on it...I bought it used this year and I have no idea if they have ever been replaced, but the bearings aren't loose and there is no play in the...

So I bought three replacement pulleys for the deck belt...but I can't get the old pulleys off. I used a mini-sledge with a wood block to protect the spindle...but they wouldn't pop free. I rigged up some 2x4's so the entire thing was resting on the pulley and hammered down on top of the...

It's not residential...it's a commercial grade mower. It's a heavy duty machine. Very well built. I couldn't be happier with the quality. It was definitely built to last. Here's a photo right after I bought it: I have 5 acres to cut and I've cut it with the Bush Hog about 6 or 7 times...

So I am replacing a few old deck pulleys on my zero turn. The new old ones were painted... not sure if the previous owner painted them or if that was factory. The new ones came unpainted. Should I paint them? If so, what kind of paint is best? Thanks!

So, I bought a used Bush Hog ZT25. Great mower. But it sat for a couple years in a barn before I bought it and a few things needed to be replaced, such as the belts and whatnot. After a few mows, the deck belt shredded. I bought another one, and it was thrown after a couple more mows. I...

Just got this the other day off of Craigslist (from a guy about 8 miles down the road) to replace my Craftsman Garden Tractor...which we'll still keep and use for other things after we get it fixed. I'm cutting almost 5 acres...so...this was/is a necessary upgrade. :smile: It's a Bush Hog ZT...

I just bought a used Bush Hog ZT25 mower. I think it's a year 2000 model. Love the mower...got a pretty good deal on it, I think anyway. Anyway, I would like to print out an owner's manual but I can't find any online...I've looked all over. Bush Hog's site sucks for online manuals for older...
