    Mulching Blades

    I purchased Grasshopper 21" Shredder Mower Blades part no. 320322 that helped greatly in shredding up the leaves and pine needles. Now I have to figure out how to keep some of the leaves that are being shredded to blow out in the right front of the mower deck. I mow at 3" height, possibly...

    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 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...

    Grasshopper model 729

    I was told they did contact Grasshopper and was told the Engine has a two year warranty and nothing further needed to be done. I did ask for the Grasshopper to be replaced or at least the Engine.

    Grasshopper model 729

    The service shop is not concerned about the possibility of gasoline in the oil, gasoline washed away oil on piston/cylinder possibly scoring cylinder or burning out the muffler. I am concerned about those, what are your thoughts.

    Grasshopper model 729

    Service department found the problem. One of the coil packs was defective causing the engine to run on two cylinders instead of three. the unburned fuel from the deactivated cylinder was burning in the muffler. This Grasshopper was purchased new several months ago and now has 14 hours on it...

    Snow Blower

    That is good to hear, so what you are telling me that the motor lift assembly is able to lock in at a certain height and the bottom skids are in mid air and it will blow snow with no problem and not damage the lift mechanism.

    Snow Blower

    On my previous 2000 grasshopper 721 I was able to lock the snow blower about 1" or more of the ground when blowing my gravel driveway. I am concerned that all of the weight with the addition of the snow and the blower rotation will all be on the motor assembly. Will the assembly be able to...

    Grasshopper model 729

    I just purchased a 2020 Grasshopper 729, having just sold my 2000 721. One noticeable difference other than more power and speed is the exhaust noise. On the 729 the exhaust sounds as if you are next to a wall and the exhaust is bouncing off it, that is when you are wide open throttle with the...

    Tires

    I need to clarify, the bar tire is not what I am asking about. The turf tires I am buying separately is what I am asking about. Price difference between standard at $385 and those that accept chains at $250

    Tires

    I am about to purchase a new 729T Mower with Bar Tires. In addition I want to purchase Turf Tires, they are offering the standard Turf Tires at $385 per set vs the Turf Tires at $250 that accommodate tire chains. My assumption is the difference is that they are smaller diameter to allow chains...

    721 Grasshopper

    I purchased the mower new in year 2000 so it came with valve stems. I believe the tires are run flat. I did put air in one of them and it inflated slightly, I then took the valve core out to deflate, no air came out and it is still inflated.

    721 Grasshopper

    I have a year 2000 with the 60" front mower deck. The front tires of the deck have tire valves in them for adding air but nothing in the deck manual states anything about adding air or what the air pressure should be only that they are flat proof. What happens if you add air to them and what...

    2000 Grasshopper Kubota Engine

    What is the difference between a Kubota WG750-B and WG750-E Engine. I can't find a Model number tag on my engine and I am hoping there is a physical difference that can be seen to advise me which one I have. The reason for asking that the E engine requires unleaded gas and the B requires...

    2000 Grasshopper 721

    I have the Kubota Gas water cooled engine. The problem I have is when I start mowing I have to go around some obstructions, consequently I am going at the slowest speed and the engine is still cold. The Grasshopper keeps jerking going forward or backward with the hand controls oscillating back...

    2000 Grasshopper 721

    I have a 2000 Grasshopper with the Kubota gas engine. Twice I had it in for service to my Kubota dealer for carburetor issues. The first time the carburetor was replaced. When I got it back the throttle control was such that I had to push it to the half way point before the rpm would change...

    2000 Grasshopper 721

    When just started and I slowly accelerate the Grasshopper wants to jerk continuously when moving forward until I pick up speed. Makes it difficult to ease around flower beds etc. After a while it will stop doing it. It is not a choke issue or engine issue. Is it hydrostatic belts or some...

    2000 Grasshopper 721 Hydrostatic Belts

    What is involved in changing the Hydrostatic Belts for a 721 Kubota Gas. Currently when I first start out (Engine and Belts cold) going slow around obstructions the mower will jerk and continue jerking when trying to move forward until a higher speed is obtained. It will stop doing that once...
