I've been mowing with lawn tractors since I was very young. I'm 57. Got married a year ago and my wife used to run a mowing business. She's been singing the praises of the ZTR since we met.
Bought a Dixon Speed 42 a couple of days ago. 13 hours on the clock. Like new condition. 22HP Briggs cast iron sleeve. Got it for a fair price(We shall see!)
My other mowers are very old, antiques but well cared for. I'm a good mechanic, I understand proper maintenance and I know how to do it. I spent thirty years working on machinery for a living.
What can I expect from this machine? Any weak points? Things out of the ordinary need to be watched?
I'd really appreciate any wisdom you guys could share. Thanks, Tom
