It does and especially when you figure out the tricks. Best one is using the loader to lift the front and roll the deck under the front wheels. My trick for re-mounting is once the deck is back under the tractor, the first thing I do is connect the front bracket/carrier thingy. This helps a lot...

More grapple training today. Wish I could have afforded this machine 10 years ago!
