Once you get a system down with the deck, it's really not that bad. I take mine off/on very often and at first it was a struggle. Now that I have a better understanding if how it works, it a easy task.

My son purchased a Deere 1025R just over a year ago. He has accumulated about 200 hrs. on the unit. During the summer months the mower and bucket are switched several times a week. The transition is quick and easy. It does a great job with any of the several attachments he has for it. It seems to be well worth the extra coins to purchase it.

@johnthorpe1071 3 года назад

Thank you Christy and Tim! I do like how high the NH mower lifts however, I'm glad that I didn't go "cheap" when I bought my 1025R, especially at my age I don't want to lay under it to attach the deck and the quick attach loader is a game changer for the forks, grapple etc. regardless the brand. "Been there done that" back in the day.

@jimpalmer1944 3 года назад

Great job Tim, I am impressed by your ability to fairly evaluate and make realistic application reviews of all types of equipment. As for your statement about removing and reattaching the mower deck, you are right on. I had a Kubota and the main reason I traded (up) for a JD was the aggravation and effort to remove and replace the deck. And, you must remove the deck for cleaning and sharpening the blades even if you don't remove it for anything else. Since I needed my tractor for many other chores after mowing, I was constantly removing and replacing the deck. Finally, I just gave up and got a JD with Auto-Connect. I always say "JD is user friendly".

@-Dave-is-not-here 3 года назад

Nice video Tim, I have the NH wm25s I do not have the mower deck or back hoe and if I was going to use a tractor for mowing with a deck I would probably of purchased a deere. I do not use my tractor for mowing and never intended it for such so it wasn't part of my decision process but I did like those feature deere offered. I have no issues taking my loader on and off I can do it in about 3 mins or so. The four lines are easy to do I keep mine clean and have no issues. My bucket does not have the quick attach and but I don't need to switch my bucket. I do not even own another piece to put on the front other than clamp on forks I use 6-10times a year. If I find I do need it, they offer the option and I did considered it at time of purchase but passed and I do not regret it so far. I did put Pat's quick attach on the 3 point and I do switch rear attachments all the time and I am glad I have those. I have bought several used older attachments plus I run a post hole digger so Pat's was the best solution for me. I have ran a Kubota and a deere since I have owned my NH they are all very good tractor and will all get the job done. Thanks for the videos Tim and Christy keep up the great work.

@mark02tj41 3 года назад

That works NH deck works pretty much the same as the deck on my 2005 Deere 3520. Which is exactly the reason I took it off permanently and now mow with a zero turn! :) Another good video, Tim!!

@scottandkandi2012 3 года назад

I've been watching your channel for over a year now. I looked at John Deere, Kubota, Mahindra and Yanmar series 1 and 2 tractors. I ended up buying a LS 225s simply because all of the other small tractors were very uncomfortable. I'm 6'4" and find the LS to fit the best. I have been very happy with it so far. Thank you for all of the great content:)

My first JD purchase as a 2007 2305 with a very similar mower deck attachment. It was heavy and hard to mount and dismount compared with the 1025r that I purchase last September. The 1025r with the drive over attachment is the only way to go. what a great improvement and that is the main reason I decided to make the change to the 1025r

@48VAC 3 года назад

I have a BX, that mower deck can be installed in about 2 minutes if you've done it before. easy peasy.

@matthewstiles3963 3 года назад

Yes it's hard until you figure it out but I can put mine on In a couple minutes as well. Not that hard and do it in the yard without turning the wheels as well it slides easily in the grass. I do believe it is easier on the Deer until it gets some age on it then we will see. My bx is a 2004 with over 2000 hours and I have replaced a metal hydraulic line. Never dealt with any new Deer tractors because of dealer In the area sad but without a good dealer tractor isn't worth much in my opinion.

@Taldridge18 3 года назад

I have a LS MT122 with a FEL and I leave the loader attached to remove my deck. It lifts the front of the tractor making it easier to remove the deck after disconnecting. Once you’ve removed the deck a time or two you learn the shortcuts. Connect the front bracket before the rear and the PTO. It takes me about 5 minutes to remove and attach. I can connect the FEL in less than 3 minutes. Like anything, practice makes perfect (or at least easier). Love your videos. Keep em coming.

@rkwill100 3 года назад

I had a cub cadet 5234D. The mower deck (on average) took 3-4 hours to install. There were many reasons for this. My 'favorite' step was reaching the mid PTO to attach the drive. It was further from the PTO connection than the length of my arms (and I don't have short arms).

@JohnJohnDu4 3 года назад

I love Kubota and currently have 3 kubota’s but when I got ready to buy a subcompact the Auto Connect deck was the answer! We cut quite a bit of grass in the summer on weekends and using our ZD326 it takes roughly 3-4 hours. I wanted a multipurpose machine that I could help cut with plus allow me to do other small jobs around the property. When I’m done cutting I remove my mower deck so the tractor is ready to jump on any task I throw at it and John Deere hands down had the best system. The drive over auto connect deck from Deere is the real deal.

@ddacombe4752 3 года назад

@allenjessee8860 3 года назад

After watching your channel from the early days I decided to sell my kubota with a rear mount finish mower and buy a John Deere 1025r with auto connect, loader, and tiller.

But in time the other brands will catchup, Massey has a drive over mower deck now but still has to hookup pto an front of mower linkage by hand . With the Deree quick attach mower deck my neighbor on his 2017 1025R had to replace the electric engauging clutch an mower deck automatic pto hookup , very ,very expensive!!!!!.

My Grandpa had a GR series kubota deck that mounts the same way. The last year of his life he was mowing 10-15 acres a week of lawns filled with sticks and mole mounds. Blades were often sharpened atleast weekly if not twice a week. Lets say I got the deck removal/install down pat. A hard serface is mandatory. Hook drive shaft, then put the front mount on to get the left/right alignment of the deck and partially the front back alignment correct. Then drob the lift arms, and use a prybar to lift the deck to the liftarms. If you adjust the deck all the way down it might help so you don't habe to lift the deck as much. I do wish they had a position for hooking/unhooking the deck that I put the lift arms on the ground without touching the deck height adjustment. Edit to say that I probably had the removal or install down to around 5 minutes without a hickup.

My FIL purchased a JD1025 before I discovered this and other compact tractor channels. I'm glad he purchased what he did based on his limited research, essentially the drive on and off mower deck. Now because of age and mobility, he doesn't have much to do with the tractor and he has given me permission to expand its capabilities. I see the limitations of the Kubota and New Holland and so glad I don't have to deal with these challenges.

@HuserHelpers 3 года назад

The deck install on the Kubota BX is the same as on my Kubota G1800-s. Which is a 1993 build year. I agree with you that I wouldn't want to take it on and off weekly, which is why I kept the G1800 even though I have a BX. I will be reviewing whether to buy a subcompact for mowing as soon as we have grass to cut.

I suggested my neighbour ought to purchase the auto connect mower when she purchased a new 1025r. The JD salesman thought otherwise. He steered us to a JD zero-turn that was on sale for just a few hundred dollars more that the auto connect deck price. He claimed it would do a nicer job and, of course it is more maneuverable for mowing than the 1025r. Her yard has a lot of beds and other obstacles, so his point was well taken. Hard to beat the functionality of a dedicated unit. I still like that auto connect deck though. It's just so cleverly designed!

@evanbluemer5119 3 года назад

I bought the brand new New Holland 25s. No problems with anything so far. Came with the three point arms and back hoe. I think the fact that it has a Yanmar power plant, and is priced right made the decision for me. It is definitely more powerful than the kubota bx23, although that would be expected just based on the specs, I didn't think I would notice it as much as I have. Once again though, the dealer and financing options also play a big part in feeling comfortable letting go of 25k. Don't forget to mention with a new tractor, in twenty years, you probably have more left over to sell and recoup your investment, than if you start with a used machine. It is important to look at your purchase from the perspective of cost of ownership over the period you own it, not just the initial investment. In Twenty years, if I keep it cherry, I will most likely get enough out of it to lower the monthly cost of ownership to between $45 and $55 per month, which seems like a good deal for what it accomplishes around my farm.

The first time we saw that deck in one of your previous videos, I thought it was very similar to the Kubota deck. At first glance it looked nearly identical to the RC72 deck that was on my Kubota F2560 front mower. My biggest hang up with the RC72 deck was the center spindle. The center spindle upper bearing is the lower bearing in the bevel gear box. I bought mine with a worn out lower bearing and in the first day of owning it, it wiped the seal out of the gearbox, draining the gear box oil on the top of the deck, as it appears your blue one is wet around the center spindle as well. There is an exchange with Kubota for gear boxes. In 2011 it was $1100 plus my gearbox if I waned to exchange. I ended up rebuilding my own gear box istead, as it was a cheaper option.

@TractorTimewithTim 3 года назад

Thanks for mentioning the gearbox issue. On the Deere deck, the upper gearbox is NOT connected directly to the middle blade...I think for that exact reason. We pointed this out in our 1025r vs BX comparison.

💥 I agree, the JD mower deck with auto connect is a lot easier to hook up. However, considering the height that the mower deck can lift on the BX, not sure about the LS or New Holland but the ground clearance plays an important role and allows me to often do loader work with my mower deck on with my BX23S.

Having owned an older John Deere 445 Lawn Tractor which did not have a drive over deck, I can confirm how difficult it was to remove and install the deck. I currently have a John Deere 1025r. Absolutely no comparison! So much easier to install, especially not having to deal with connecting the pto shaft.

The mower attachment is very similar to my 2003 2210 John Deere (pre auto connect). I don't remove it as much as I should when doing other work

@bnewton5922 3 года назад

The drive over mower deck for John Deere is so much easier than the slide in deck. I sure like mine. 😊

@JG-lm9fd 3 года назад

One thing to do is clean and lube the pot shaft and splines, I also spray lube all moving parts before since they are easier to get too

I had a Kubots B7500, I now have a Kubota B2650. The mower decks on those 2 tractors are like your blue mower. My dealer told me to just put the tractor in 4wd low and drive over the deck. No moving the deck sideways, works well. Then I crawl under the tractor from the rear so I have both hands to put the pto shaft on, works really easy. P.S. I'm 75 now.

Louis, at 75, you don’t need to be crawling. Think Green!

@brucealvarez9263 3 года назад

That PTO connection looks like a 2 handed job with room for only 1 hand. The whole deck attachment makes a good case for a dedicated mower, use the tractor for tractor stuff. My Mahindra 1533 has 3 hoses in back for the backhoe. The 2 upper connecters on the tractor are one male, one female. Easy to know which hose on the backhoe connects where. No reason the NH couldn't be changed to be the same.

@markmccoy1304 3 года назад

I think a finish mower on the 3 pt hitch would be much easier. For the young bucks it probably wouldn't matter. I still say you are very smart with all this. Mark

If trees and other obstacles need to be mowed around, a belly mower is the go.

@@kdegraa I was thinking of the trouble of laying on the ground and hooking up that belly mower. Seems like a lot of work. But I see the nimble track you can get in and out of. I have a riding mower and much bigger Tractor without mid pto.

@kdegraa 3 года назад

Yeah I have a mower too, its an Iseki SF333 which is an out front 72 inch mower. I would have liked to have gotten rid of it and replace it with a Kubota B series tractor with a 72 inch mower deck but could not due to the price of the Kubota and the non availability of them. I'm not sure if I'm making a mistake or not but we are setting ourselves up to buy a 37HP tractor which does not have a mid mounted PTO shaft. So we will have to keep our Iseki mower which is quite old and has problems.

I just bought The LS MT240E. 40hp. Way more lift than any of the Deere 3 series and several thousand less.

Im a Ford/New Holland fan....i have multiple blue tractors on the farm but my sub compact NH TC18 may get used the most. Its a slick tractor but I sold that giant deck last summer and bought a zero turn....nuff said.

@farmingsmallkubota1783 3 года назад

i really liked my Bx25d except taking the deck on and off. I have since traded up, but the way I got the deck on and off was to have the loader on place the deck between the front wheels and bucket lift front of tractor and slide it back under the front wheels. no adjusting wheels or needing and an acre to move around in.

The struggle with the manual connect mower deck is why I went with the deere 1025r with auto connect deck.

@ThomasPaine71 3 года назад

I have the Massey GC-1720. The deck is a drive over and then the hook up is similar. There are two rear arms that clip in with those pins, and the front engages quite the same. I take my deck off and on many times a season but it's drive over so not hard at all. My backhoe has three hoses as well. I think you will find on that NH that it has boom float. Try shoving the one lever to a detent and see if it floats. The loader is quite similar, in that I have 4 hoses to hook up. I am going to be converting my Massey quick connect from the Massey one to getting a SSQA quick connect as I want to get a grapple this spring. My Massey quick attach is nice and light, but I only have the bucket and forks for it right now.

@TractorTimewithTim 3 года назад

The BX drive over deck has a few more steps than the deere drive over but it's not that bad. I believe the kubota deck provides a little more ground clearance too. The one thing Deere has everyone beat is the easy move feature. That's remarkable. Maybe I'm wierd but I don't remove my deck for 80% of the digging I do.

@greg86z28 3 года назад

Sorry if this was already mentioned, but the Kubota (at least the B series - tractor between your LX and the smaller BX) does NOT have an autoconnect PTO. It is a drive over deck though. IMO the drive over deck really isn't a game changer if you are connecting the deck on concrete/asphalt. I could see it being a huge improvement if you were on grass or gravel where it is harder to slide the deck under the tractor. Hooking up the mid PTO on the Kubota isn't the end of the world, but it's not as convenient as the JD. I typically leave my deck on during the summer unless I really need to remove it.

@FrankFH 3 года назад

The drive over deck on my B series Kubota is much easier than the old style to use. Normally less than a minute to remove it and less than two minutes to install it. However, you do have to get down to connect the pto shaft.

Tim. You know what would be a good, popular and informative video is a "How do they attach video" for backhoes showing John deer, Kubota, New Holland, LS and massey. I notice those vary greatly form one brand to another. Might have to get some guys together to get the equipment you need to pull it off.
