Got ifixed, 60 gal uprite compressor, snap on 1/2inch air wrench. Work perfect easy removal

Yea me too

With all due respect, they use 5/8x18 grade 8 fine thread blade bolts, . I just needed a bigger compressor mine was really small problem solved. Again with all due respect you seem to have a very negative attitude toward bad boy. Just my 2cents

Went to a 220 volt 60 gal. compressor running at 125 psi. Had 110 volt 15 gal.Hope this helps!

I have a mz42 great mower but the blade bolts are really difficult to remove for sharpening even with impact wrench.

My MZ 42 blades are 14 3/8 inches long mows my yard perfect.

Just buy a mower with a good heavy fabricated deck ,remove build up grass after each mowing and it will last longer than the rest of the mower.

If you are going to use it commercially then buy a commercial mower. If for home owner only residential mower is probability all you need. It all depends on how many hours per year you use it.

Yea you should get many years service from the Toro. Congradulations.

Actually I prefer Kohler ! I have a 42 inch with a 19 hp single on my badboy mz42 . Fuel economy is not bad but nothing like my Cub Cadet lawn tractor. The 19 horse kohler is very powerful on the little 42 inch zeroturn

I think the little belt sander I have was less than $50.

I use a harbor freight stationary belt sander 1x30 inch belt with 120 grit belt ,very quick and smooth. Does a good job ,best I have ever used and I have tried lots of different methods. See attached picture.

When we first moved in to this house I used a walk behind mower and got a great looking cut but now I am 74 years old with a heart problem and have to used a zero turn since I cannot walk far with out getting weak. I enjoy mowing and my little 42 inch zero turn and my small weed eater make that...

I agree!

Actually the best looking lot in my subdivision is being mowed with a 21 inch Honda self propelled mower.

Well I was born at night but not last night and there is no way I would pay around $5000 to mow a 1/2 acre lot.

You are painting with a very wide brush! there are a lot residential mower owners mowing about 25 to 30 hours a year and take care of there equipment and they will get several years of good service. I have a residential Badboy MZ 42 and have not had a minutes trouble and expect to have the mower...

If you buy a mower with a good heavy fabricated deck just rake it out by hand every occasionally. And you are good to go. Sort of like my old bush hog. Lol

The reason most 42 inch zero turn mowers have EZT 2100 or 2200 is they are all you need for an acre or less and will last the life of the mower. Fact! most residential owners don’t need a commercial mower they just want one.

Prices! It is what it is, if you don’t buy it someone else will.

Problem is the dollar is buying less and is plentiful manufacturing is down (fewer products more competition to buy them.) In short the dollar will be buying less in 2022 than it was in 2021. Saw a help wanted posting this morning on Facebook from chick-fillet starting out at $19 per hour.

This my friend is not the dealer or Scags fault, it’s inflation ! Blame is with the Feds.

When you change the filter and sharpen the blades the first time expect them to be very tight (must be a kohler liability thing.)Good luck with your new mower.

You will like the kohler ! parts and service is available everywhere but I double you will need that for a very long time.

I bought a new badboy MZ 42 for my 3/4 acre lot this spring with a kohler 19 hp and I could not be happier with it. Plenty of power and good fuel economy and not a minutes trouble.

Good luck hope it works out well for you !

According to my local dealer the new kohler engines are giving very little trouble. I would bet you will be very with yours.

I would fertilize it in about 5 weeks then just overseed the bare spots as needed. Keep it mowed at about 3 1/2 inches. You will have a nice yard for next year.

I would go with the toro and all that warranty. I would venture to guess most residential customers in this country are mowing with ZT 2100, 2200 in there zero turns. With reasonable care they will last the life of the mower. Just my 2 cents.

Sounds like you are getting a good deal rent here in East Tennessee rent has gone crazy along with the price of houses.

Sounds like your landlord may want you to fix her gravely. Lol

Probably had dull blades, I’ll adjusted tire pressure, poor engine tune and who knows what else is going own with that particular gravely . I don’t own a gravely but most owners like them. Just my 2 cents.

I have to agree with you lugbolt tractor supply is a little high on about everything they sell.

I bought a new MZ 42 this season not a minutes trouble! Nice cut and build like a tank. Also very low center of gravity . I only mow about 3/4 of an acre, with some hills. It has eased my pucker power on the hills.

Why not buy mower with zt2200 for a third acre it’s all you need, occasional pulling a couple hundred lbs will not hurt it. My 42 in badboy mz42 can tow 200 lbs. save yourself A lot of money.

I totally agree !

My post was not intended to be critical just to be helpful. And I seriously doubt half the post on here at over thought. Lol.

With all due respect ! Maybe you are overthinking the situation.

I thought that only the 52 inch 360z has the 2800s ,smaller ones (36, 42 and 48)has EZT 2200

You could get into trouble making a run at a hill on a zero turn lol!

I would rather spend 3k for what I need than 5k for what I want. The guy is only mowing a 1/2 acre. Lol!

If you are mowing around an acre a week the 2200 ez is all you need, they are good for a minimum of 400 + hours of hard use and it would take most home owners over 16 years to just reach 400 hours at 25 hours per season. I have a 42 inch badboy MZ that goes easily through my 48 inch gate. Has a...

Tried to sharpen my badboy blades with a file. To hard for me !

As thick as the decks are on the badboy mowers doubt they will need much more that a few cleanings a season can not imagine them rusting through lol.

Sounds like you have an engine problem Badboy does not make engines, but most engine manufactures have a 3 year warranty !!

Badboy mowers are a great product and have constantly improved over the years. And like all good products at a fair price they are hard to find!

My bad lol!
