Lawn care business tips
yeah......my stock blades were dull allready after mowing for 4 hours!!!! what!!!! i bet every "new" John deere tractor in the world that has been used twice has dull blades. i sharpened those blades when i made the 1st post. why do they cheap out on one of the most important parts? wow.

on another note. do u guys know if the gator blades will work with my bagger? thats my one concern. but if they work good enough ill skip the bagger. it makes the tractor HUGE to menuver anyway. thanks alot for your posts! this Site is Fun!

with a bagging system if you can not get the G6 gators I would use 2 gator blades and 1 high lift on the discharge.
