Posted - 07/30/2010 : 14:44:21 As I just got a used 42" this year, with my 6216, cut great, and looks fine. For 23 years used a 36", and did a good job, but the 42" is just way better. Looks like old guys can grow up.... |

Posted - 07/30/2010 : 08:57:17 I used to mow with my MF1650 hydro 48 inch rear discharge, and while it mowed fast, it wasn't that much faster, and it wasn't near as could of a cut. The 42 inch deck goes places the 48 wouldn't and cuts down on my weed eating, so I doubt I lose any time. The lawn is gorgeous, not just mowed with the Allis |

The big problem with the wide deck is that there were two many places that I just could not mow with the wider deck even with the discharge chute raised.
You'll be hard pressed to find a spot that a 42" deck won't fit. That's why I love my Kubota so much, as there isn't a place on my spread it won't drive through. Almost all my previous mowers were 48", and there were 2 places at least that it wouldn't pass through. |

Posted - 07/30/2010 : 07:35:05 Seriously I had a 48" deck on my Kubota. Aside from the fact that the mower had never been adjusted right in its 15 years (Took me a couple of months to sort out with no instructions available) Even after proper leveling it still was not up to the standard of quality I was used to and on heavy turf grass like St. Augustine it was horrendous . The big problem with the wide deck is that there were two many places that I just could not mow with the wider deck even with the discharge chute raised. |

Posted - 07/29/2010 : 22:16:52 Again it's not the size of the deck, but rather the mower it's attached to, and the intelligent life form operating it. |
