Mowing Pond Dam Slope - Kubota F Series

[@craigpearce4667]

I drive a f3690 every day, they are a beast of a mower, built to work very hard.

East Sussex county council’s contractor uses these mowers for all of their sites, along with a kubota tractor for the fields.

Nice! They are great machines!

[@calumpotter5302]

They used to use John deer 1445’s, but changed to Kubota in 2021.

Looks like a 3680. I work for a school district. I use that mower and also a f3990. Good mowers. Both are over 5500 hrs.

[@walkerdb84]

Awesome! There's 2,230 hours in mine right now. I bought it at 2,194. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for this video. How much of a slope do you think this machine can handle sideways like you did on the dam? Did you feel it trying slide at any point? Thanks!

[@walkerdb84]

You're welcome! It was angled the whole time, so it was technically sliding already, but it was a controlled slide if that makes sense. I wouldn't try anything steeper in this configuration. If you had bar tires and some extra weight then I think it could go a little steeper. I'm happy to make another video if that helps you as well, just let me know.

Thanks!

Things not even phased by the 2 foot high weeds lol

[@walkerdb84]

Right!!! Pre-emissions power!!

[@pweb4941]

i have an f3060, the darn tyres would last about 5 minutes on that angle

[@walkerdb84]

Better grip would definitely help! These get the job done though, just nice and steady.

Has this bloke took his brains out mowing a steep bank around the edge of a lake if he rolls over he doesn’t stand a chance

[@iPeter-ky3zs]

Especially with seat belt on....pretty risky....

[@tcmits3699]

​@@iPeter-ky3zsAlso love when they move out in the woods mowing between the trees losing all that natural habitat. Not telling anyone how to live, but it does look silly when they try to MAN-handle (change) nature's beauty. That pond would look beautiful with natural landscape, looks more like a golf course
