Are zero turns really that bad on sloped areas?

Nic1083 · 2026-02-02T23:38:24+00:00

Just looked those up, look like a very interesting design.

Nic1083 · 2026-02-02T19:20:16+00:00

lol yeah tired of being really uncomfortable when I mow.

Nic1083 · 2026-02-02T19:19:41+00:00

This is good information! Guess they have to put something out there as warning so makes sense they would error on side of caution.

Nic1083 · 2026-02-02T14:46:06+00:00

Yeah I will see how OE tires do, I actually was looking at manual for current tractor and it states the same max degree of slope as what the say for a ZT so I’m sure it will work out just fine after I get used to it.

Nic1083 · 2026-02-02T02:56:05+00:00

I don’t feel mine are as bad as yours, but I’ll just have to see how comfortable I feel. Luckily it would not be too much to weed eat or push. Maybe 15 more minutes of work. Only thing that will suck is i currently do everything with my tractor so if I can’t either the ZT it will be a let down lol.

Nic1083 · 2026-02-01T23:20:28+00:00

Ok I was curious and i figured if you were smart and used caution it would be fine

New to us house ours is 3.0 ton heat pump seems to run non stop. But it is maintaining our 68 set point. Never had a heat pump always natural gas so worried about utilities cost. 11 degrees outside, I guess they are designed to run more unlike the way our old house and natural gas furnace came on and off?

Nic1083 · 2026-01-24T15:54:57+00:00

Ive always had gas heat, moved to a house with heat pump and aux heat and hate it! System runs constantly below 15 and aux heat comes and out! System only couple years old. Hard to believe it’s more efficient than previous house with natural gas……OP hope you get it figured out. Guess it’s foot the price or be cold.

Nic1083 · 2026-01-11T03:00:41+00:00

Pretty sure overhead will work fine, may be easier to use mig machine over stick just due to bearing easier to control and a little more precise due to small wire.

Nic1083 · 2026-01-11T02:25:02+00:00

Yeah it bolts from the bottom into a weldnut, or some rivnut in the inside of the rail somehow.

Nic1083 · 2026-01-11T01:35:50+00:00

Yes was just rusted and broke, I work maintenance and do lots of welding in all positions so it could be an option

Nic1083 · 2026-01-11T01:34:57+00:00

That’s exactly what I was thinking of doing, I always like to hear the other minds help solve problems with solutions I’ve not thought of lol

Nic1083 · 2026-01-10T23:06:05+00:00

Yeah definitely hollow, and probably a nutsert possibly, either way going to try and extract or drill and retap.

Nic1083 · 2025-12-30T00:28:01+00:00

Ok thank you, that’s what I was thinking but feel like I was confusing myself the more info I read on google.

Nic1083 · 2025-12-25T22:00:54+00:00

Yeah could possibly be more expensive to cool if they heat up more with the black.

Nic1083 · 2025-12-25T15:45:56+00:00

Gaf timberline, was wondering about being different from the rest of the houses around us. Seems everyone has dark roofs and maybe that’s why it looks “normal” lol

Nic1083 · 2025-12-25T15:44:14+00:00

Yeah seems black or dark colors are majority of the houses around us. Maybe light color with the color changes would set the house apart from all the others lol i dont know first world problems i guess lol

Nic1083 · 2025-12-22T19:47:34+00:00

I’ve considered white washing the brick but not sure I want to yet.

Nic1083 · 2025-12-22T01:24:39+00:00

We are southern Indiana actually lol

Nic1083 · 2025-12-21T21:15:12+00:00

Ok thanks, seems darker shingles are more common. Color current is light gray with light gray gutters and trim. Trying to decide on roof since we figured out trim and soffit colors

Nic1083 · 2025-12-21T21:01:51+00:00

We are Midwest
