I’m new to the whole tractor world and bought my first Kubota end of last summer. I mowed my new small piece of property with a walk along bush hog end of last summer and said never again. The brush was as tall as I am and it was brutal work. My hills are so steep I couldn’t even finish. So bought the 1988 Kubota L2850 still in great shape with a 72” center mower. I would rather use a rear mower and do away with the center but don’t know how far a rear mower will articulate down like when the tractor gets to the top of a steep hill and levels off will that make the rear mower lift and not mow the top of the hill??? Same going down, as the tractor goes down will the mower raise off the ground and not mow the top of the flat section??? I would rather use a rear mower to free up the tractor for other activities and just get rid of the center mower.

The problem is if you slide there is no place to stop except a deep ditch in the tree line. Mowing hills is all I know, this one was pretty steep. It’s easy to judge people from behind a screen and not being in the tractor seat. Thanks for watching.

@@khtractors You have a point but I have been in the tractor’s seat of a JD 955 w/ 4x4, 72” belly mower and a 60” rear mounted wing. And yes I’ve done my fair share of steep hills.

Looks like mybe 4 to 1 slope that not steap

I’m glad you can judge that from your chair. Most of this was right at 30 degrees with some being less some being more. Your more then welcome to come give it a try.

Where's the extreme

That hill is a lot steeper than it looks. I wouldn't want to even ride a tractor on it. Camera views are deceiving. Try to video a steep hill and see how it turns out.
