Ztrak front weights

[WNCPlowboy]

Any one have knowledge of how adding 100 lbs of weight to the front of a JD Ztrak might stress the mower frame. I know quit mowing up and down slopes.

You will be fine. If you're worried about the frame flexing, my recommendation would be to drive accordingly. For example, if you feel the machine flexing under you, slow down, and make smoother transitions with regards to speed and direction. If you go hog wild and whip the machine around, it will flex more and potentially fail sooner. Basic machine operations. Get a feel for the machine, and operate it accordingly utilizing common sense. You will be fine!
