How To Remove And Install Mid Mount Mower On LS MT225s Tractor

I've been messing around with the LS MT225s doing a lot of mowing, and I thought why not make a video showing how to remove and install the mid mount mower. Hopefully this will help someone out who might be stumped or worried that they don't know how to do it!

Thank you for demonstrating this. The instructions in the manual are almost indecipherable, but seeing you do it was so simple to understand. The time you spent doing this was invaluable to us LM2360 belly mower owners. Appreciate you!

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Hey thanks Doug! That's what the videos are for 👍. Glad to help you out buddy

[@DB-so2he]

Great work!! I have the MT225s and I use a 48" flail mower on mine for cleaning along the driveway and woods. We have a zero turn for the yard and garden areas for mowing. The drive-over mower is really nice and I watched your other video of you mowing the yard with it. It did a beautiful job mowing. Great videos ! thanks.

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Hey thanks a lot! How do you like your flail mower? I've never used one of those

[@DB-so2he]

@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse I love it. It turns brush and wood into mulch. It's compact for getting around trails and inside fenced gardens. Mine is the Betstco FH-EFG125 medium duty model with hammer style flails. Great for trimming along roadways and driveways. Not for leaving a manicured look, but great for clearing brush and high weeds and grass.

Excellent video, very easy removal and re-mounting. Nice machine so far. Thanks for sharing. Ken

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Thanks Ken! Yeah not bad at all to take off and put back on 👍

[@BrettCraft]

Very well done. Most people would probably only take it on and off one or two times per year so having to fiddle with it a bit would not be a problem. I think other manufactures have drive over which are a little more automatic. But if that is what you want it will cost more.

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Yeah I think you're right. Most probably won't take it off too often, but it's nice knowing it's easy to do 👍

[@VicShoup-ec6jb]

Good training video!

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Hey thanks Vic!

[@waltrogers8529]

Great job explaing each step. Other videos only show the results after the various steps and does not show the actual implementation of the steps. Thank you!

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

No problem Walt! Hope it helps

[@deanbarr5740]

Good job, for a Compact Tractor, that is made very beefy. Even the mower deck looks heavy made. Thanks CJ.

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

I agree with you Dean! 👍👍

[@kevinbrewer2141]

I love the front swivel wheels on the mower deck. I mower with a rear 3pt finish mower. I do have to watch my turns mowing where you don't.

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

I'm surprised your finish mower doesn't have swivel wheels. But yeah that would tear up a yard pretty quick

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

That will work. Thanks for sharing with us CJ. Stay safe around there and keep up the good videos. Fred.

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Thanks Fred! 👍

[@drasus233]

Awesome video!!! Thanks

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Thank you!! 👍

[@jeffhall5193]

Nice video. I bought a MT225s a few weeks ago but have not found many "how to" videos. Keep up the good content.

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Thats what I'm here for Jeff lol 👍👍

[@ericwoolman8276]

Great video. Dealer told me you had to pull it out the side... was a deal breaker

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

I wonder why he said that

[@ericwoolman8276]

@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse he was trying to sell me a three point mower. New what I needed but he wouldn't listen. Reckon he thought he knew more than me. He lost a customer

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

@ericwoolman8276 that's a shame. Sorry to hear that

[@ericwoolman8276]

@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse there's a better dealer 50 miles up the road. Will give them a try. Any experience on the ms 125?

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

@ericwoolman8276 no buddy I have not tried one of those yet. Down at the dealer conference I saw one all decked out with a grapple and a backhoe. Would be interesting to see what it could do 👍

[@mossman7527]

Awesome video

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Thank you buddy!

[@802louis]

Great job 👏

Thanks Rich glad you enjoyed it! 👍🚜💪

[@mybellacat1]

Great video saving this thanks! The next one should be back hoe . Got a LS MT122

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

No problem! I have some videos on taking off different LS Tractor backhoes. I've never had a MT122 here though

[@michaelparks-nz4yt]

Does the mt225 have a hydrostatic fan underneath like the xj2025 or does it have the oil cooler thanks

[@jefffrancis6824]

👀

[@ronaldprothro5467]

Is this deck heavy duty? It looks like it's stamped versus forged. Thank you for any information.

[@haroldhorton2603]

I was afraid you were going back through your garage door

[@stoggie0860]

will the rear pto cover work as cover for the mid mount

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

No I thought of that too but the rear one is bigger so it would fall off the mid pto shaft 👍

[@jimjennings1970]

What are the tractor tires called??

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

Those are R14 tires 👍

[@ericvonp]

I have to say… the juice is not worth the squeeze! Too much trouble! I’ll use a rear brush hog or a zero turn

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

I didn't think it was too bad to be honest. I've had harder times hooking implements on my 3 point hitch lol. I can't use a zero turn on my steep banks so this tractor helps me a lot 👍

[@ericvonp]

Sorry I just saw other vids you have steep hills. Good call on 4x4

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

@ericvonp no need to be sorry buddy! Yeah 4x4 is a must around here lol
