Agmate® Finishing Mower, 6' Rear Discharge, 6FMOWR

I bought this 6ft mower from Agri Supply in Greenville, NC. It was fully assembled, but the gearbox was a bit low on oil. It had some grease on the fittings but I greased everything again to make sure. I disassembled the PTO shaft and greased the fittings on each U-joint, both sections of the slip shaft, and the plastic bushings at each end of the yellow PTO cover. One of the wheels seems to have rough bearings and doesn't spin freely. Some grease helped it a bit, and I'll see how it feels after a few uses. The 6ft mower does not have a anti scalping roller in the center, but badly needs one if your yard is not flat. I scalped a section the grass in front of the house where it starts to slope to the ditch. I purchased a roller for the 7ft mower (part# 020052 - Item# 102408 - Front roller assembly for 7ft mower) and installed it. Check your PTO shaft clearance when you raise the mower all the way up if you install this roller. Mine is against the roller at full lift. I use the mower with a John Deere 855 compact tractor (24 engine hp, 19 PTO hp) and it works great. I was a bit concerned that it would bog down the engine since it has a hydro-static transmission and electric PTO clutch. You can't gradually engage the PTO like with a clutch, the electric operated clutch is either on or off. But it doesn't bother the engine at all, just rev it up and engage the PTO. The mower is actually pretty quiet while in operation, and does a good job of mowing. I purchased mulching blades for it, but the mulching kit with the covers was not available through Agri Supply. If the grass gets too high, the mower will leave clumps of grass behind. I probably need another counter weight or two in the front. I have 75 lbs right now, and it's not hard to get the front wheels off the ground if I start too quickly. I appreciate Agri Supply's customer service, I called before making the 1.5 hour drive to get the mower to make sure everything was in stock and they had it ready when I arrived. They also had the part number and website where I could order the mulching kit if I wanted it. I also like that the manual for the mower is on the same web page as the mower. I can print it out since the one that came in the storage tube attached to the mower was soaked.

I have been using this mower since new in 2016. Excellent quality. I am rough on it. The Estate mower has been very strong against hits. All is well

Purchased this mower to replace a failing belly mower on a New Holland 1620. Shipping was quicker than expected and the unit arrived in good condition. It came greased and with oil in the gearbox ready to mow. Only issue was missing spacers and pin on one wheel, most likely during shipping. Called customer service the next day and replacements are on the way. The main reason I chose AGRI Supply was because of the positive customer service reviews, and based on my experiences from the order, delivery and my call to replace the parts, I made the right choice.

Purchased the mower deck 2 weeks ago and it was delivered on time, undamaged with all parts delivered as promised. Oil was already serviced in the gearbox, grease fittings filled, etc., and ready to assemble drive shaft to tractor and mower gearbox. Had to make a 4-inch cut on the drive shaft because they give you extra length to accommodate all types of tractors. No problem. Adjusted the height of the wheels with supplied spacers, but replaced the existing pins with heavy duty cotter pin types so they wouldn't come off. Otherwise, perfect cutting machine, nice finishing job on lawn. I cut 4 acres in about two hours. Runs smoothly and not a lot of noise. Good price for such a heavy duty, quality mower. I noticed that replacement parts are reasonably priced. Recommend this as a replacement mower which is what I did for a 5 ft. Woods mower. Customer service representative Susan was terrific on the phone answering any questions.

I received my 6' mower.It was assembled and oiled and greased.All I had to do was hook up the pto shaft and mow.The steel is a heavy gauge and the paint is ok.It runs smooth and quiet.The casters have grease fittings as well.Its a great mower for the price same construction as the ones that cost twice as much.
