I regret that I cannot post the personal identifying info for the following as I neglected to ask for authorization to do so in the email I sent to the Company.
The question I asked was what the tow capacity was, in general, for the zero turn machines they make, here is the response:
'the rule of thumb for rated tow capacity for our zero turn mowers is to add the weight of the machine, the operators weight and the maximum ballast rating'
For any riding mower this is impressive, for a zero turn it is light years beyond impressive.
jm, I am unable to attribute the disjointed, irrational cognitive process of a small group here to any other reason, some here have to be afflicted with brain worms/parasites. :wink: then again the cause could be a combination of worms and head trama: from all the brain skull impact while bouncing around/zero turning on zt's....
Or perhaps the group also suffers from oxygen depletion-after all they do maintain that the zt mower is able to cut at fantastic speeds-if their mouths were open while mowing, probably the case as I suspect their mouths are always open, I could see where a sort of venturi effect would severly reduce the oxygen going to the brain, with the expected result-ESPECIALLY when they make those muti 'g' zero turns. :biggrin:
Then again; should not oxygen depletion or brain:skull impact rid the brain of worms/ parasites? or has this created a super strain?? you know with thicker cell walls brought about by the repeated impacts....
Thats it ! I am drafting a letter to the CPC demanding that a new label be affixed to all zero turn mowers sold to non professionals, the label shall be dayglo orange, minimum 6x6" (sorry jm but I don't know the metric equivalent) stating that the State of California has found a direct correlation between mutated tricinosis parasites and homeowner operation of zero turn mowers.
I suspect the fix will be a heated headband (solar powered-with a cng backup of course) interlocked via bluetooth to the ignition key, the device will gently raise the temp of the brain to a level which will soften the cell structure of the parasties thus enabling the high 'g' forces experienced by the operator to destroy the bugs.......:thumbsup:
Then again there is always the Hantavirus as a possible contributing factor and explanation-those high g turns coupled with super sonic blade tip speeds would raise alot of dust, an awful lot of dust; think about it
Barry and Michelle must be made aware of this immediately, zero turn mower sales to non professional consumers must be :banned: :goodnight:

Well guys, one thing that all of the Z-turn operators have done, that Robert has never been able to do, is to have mastered the operation of the Z-turn. :biggrin:
