    Mulching Blades

    I purchased the mulching kit for my front mount 61" mower deck. It does a good job with mulching grass, don't know how well it will do for leaves. I do know it does not work well on pine needles, are there better blades that will mulch leaves and pine needles?

    Exhaust glowing red - issues..

    I purchased it new and it was delivered in this condition. Even though it was running on two cylinders it was still faster and more powerful than my previous grasshopper with a similar 3 cylinder engine that had 23 hp instead of the 29 hp of the new unit. The only reason I knew something was...

    Grasshopper cab

    I have a new 729T6 with the motorized lift snow blower. I just installed a cab (enclosure) on mine. The enclosure is all metal no vinyl, vinyl is used for non motorized lift snow blowers. I might be able to answer your questions.

    Grasshopper model 729

    The difference between the 2000 and the 2020 is hp 23 vs 29. I spoke with a Grasshopper Technician from the Grasshopper Factory this morning he advised that he didn't believe it hurt anything but he would have changed the oil. The muffler is now a catalytic converter and it should be alright...
