Hi, I have a L4760 cab on order with a Woods TKP84.40 finish mower (820 lbs operating weight).

On my current tractor (Deere 2038r), my 700 lbs flail mower is slightly too heavy to operate without the loader on, or front weights. Steering while accelerating isn’t possible. But flat ground mowing is possible.

I’m wondering if yall have an idea if I’d need front weights on the new tractor for this type of use. If so, any idea how much weight I should get? I will have a loader, but I don’t really like keeping the loader on while mowing.

The other thing that isn’t clear is if you need to add a weight bracket on the Kubota or not.
