Those are in fact the all terrain tracks which is the “off-road” version. The other tracks option is their turf tracks. Just wanted to clarify!
Nice review Phillip. I just got a TRX 561 2 weeks ago. The deck is heavy and they now offer a power lift which I am waiting for it to come in. Its unclear what happens to the foot pedal once the lift is installed. I'm not a contractor but have a lot of grass to cut on my property. The cut quality is amazing, the ride quality is also amazing compared to the John Deere 2032R I was cutting with before. I do have some pretty steep hills and still learning how to best cut those but each time I run it I learn more on what it likes and does not meaning when it rips up the grass or not. I also have few wetter areas by a pond and stream and due to the foot print of the tracks its handles it with ease. I know a tire zero turn would defiantly have gotten stuck.

I’ll have to look into that powered deck. It would be nice if the price is right. Thanks for watching. Enjoy your new mower 😎

@@HillBilly4Ever I installed some helper springs that made the lift half as hard, cheap mod too.
There's no excuse for something this expensive to NOT have a hydraulic deck.

No need for an expensive hydraulic deck, just some helper spring does the trick for less than 20 bucks.

How do you turn around at the end of a strip without the tracks chewing up the ground?
Pretty cool mowers. Price is crazy on though. Guess I have to stick with my push mower. 😖

It’s true, this is not a mower for everyone. Mainly, If you have a mowing business or a lot of land it might be worth looking into.
as someone who has one of these, dont get one it will be cheaper to hire someone to do the job. i actually ran the numbers of hours used and repairs constantly needed and it would have been cheaper to pay someone 70$ per hour to use their own equipment. This is after 5 years of use. have had to replace both treads several belts and all three spindles before the 400 hr mark. and after the 400 hr mark the starter is going bad due to old age from the authorized mechanic.
Do the “tank tracks” tear up the lawn more than a conventional turf tire when doing turns?

The tracks are less noticeable but still can tear it up. Especially when turning fast on a damp lawn.
I'd like to have a set for my john deere zero turn mower
Where do you buy in Australia please
Phil, if you get the chance to try the all terrain deck, I'm curious what you think about it.

It’s a fun mower. Man, if Milwaukee made one like this though. 🤩
Whats their biggest. Whats the Canadian price. Where are they built. As far as i am concerned. Scag is the best.
What kind of hills can it handle?
The tracks leave quite a foot print in a K-turn. I think not
How many hours on the tracks before you have to replace them
@PhillipBridgesReviews
Жыл бұрын
It all depends on the terrain. I have over 1700 hours on it and the tracks are still in good shape.
Second deck in side two years that’s no good will buy something else
How to buy
I'm fine with my Spartan, Hustler and Grasshopper, no trax for me!
Is there an option for joystick steering?

I would never buy a second deck just because the paint is coming off, sand and repaint.

the usual zero air flow deck.. no leaf vacuum on this guy..
20 thousand plus I dont think so.
Run away quick .Looks cool but nothing but junk. Just about everything either fell off or broke on this thing. Finally sold it for next to nothing. Altoz company is horrible to deal with.

We have two of them, had to do a few mods to make them shine but after 5 season's nothing has fell off of them like you say, they are bullet proof as far as I'm concerned.
More like a sales spiel than a review. 👎👎
It's a piece of crap
What a piece of junk. Looks pretty. lol
