We have a slope mower on our M6-111 ( Tiger Terrain)it will run fine for about half a day then it starts to get hot and start loosening function ( boom moves slow, blades slow down ) We have changed the filters and have good pressure. Tractor has only 1600 hours. Local repair shop has no idea what's going on. Look for ny ideas to help fix the problem. Thanks in advance.
M6-111 boom mower gets hot and shuts off
- Thread starter Florida Orange
- Start date
Sounds to me like it needs an external oil cooler. I take it, it's a self contained unit, PTO driven pump and external holding tank.
Yes it has a closed unit with a cooler fan. Is there a relay that might be getting hot also we looked and can not see one.

Going to need more information, like the exact mower model number and manufacture as I can't find any info on "tiger terrain".
And it sounds like it's taped into the tractor hydraulics, and if so how?
It's not (plumbed into the tractor hydraulics). Jumped on their website as it looked familiar, guy down the road has one he mows ditch banks with. He isn't home or I'd ask him if he has any issues with his.
Go to the Tiger website, they are all there.
Unless the PTO is slipping (Which it won't do for long!!) this looks like an implement problem, not a tractor problem.
