Wanting to know if anyone has any experience with these.
Im concerned about the wheels spinning while at an angle on a slope.
They mention wheel spinning in the attached video starting at around the 2:00 minute mark, but I dont know if its a common problem, or if they are referring to something else related to loading/unloading.

Take an air body saw which is a pneumatic hack saw and slice an X pattern in the bald tires. Make a diamond pattern like pushmower wheels. Easy way to retread racing slicks.

Sounds like a great idea if I had bought one that had bald tires :D
I havent bought one yet. Im asking to see if anyone might have first hand experience with them.
Thanks

Over the last couple of years Ive read several different times that front mount mowers can mow a hill/slope better than a midmount.
So Im wondering if this ProCut S is any better or worse than other front mounts due to its design.

I don't have the ferris but i had a yazoo HTPOK which is a very similar mower and wheel spin was difinately an issue. Many times had to lift the deck to put weight on the drive wheels. Did not do well on slopes.

I wish they held the ground like the other front mount mowers.
Thanks for the reply.

I see others have experience with them.
