On the B7100's - a little different machine but a few similarities - the 60" is a sub-beauch to remove!

And reading up on the B7800 - they are somewhat the same.

Raise deck - turn scalp wheel 90 degrees to tractor - lower deck, unhook all (pto - front - lift points) and if the front wheels are turned a certain way AND you are on a hard surface the deck will come out. I find it better to jack the front end up and good bit to avoid the front tires. Then again I am always doing this on grass and a slight hill.

as for manual:

Easy on both my B1750 and B3350.

Don't fight it. Simply drive the tractor onto a layer or two of short 2X* planks (F & R) to gain clearance to roll the deck out to the side. Alternatively, rear only and raise the front with a suitable jack.

Yes, is it much easier on a concrete surface.

I can change engine oil without removing the decks but it is a PITA and not worth the effort/mess.

Process sounds the same as my BX2200. Not overly difficult or time consuming. Doing it on a concrete floor where the deck can roll easily makes it a lot easier. Unfortunately, I am usually stuck doing it on grass in the yard. The deck isn't light and kind of a pain to have to He-Man in and out from under the tractor.

All in all it is a ton easier than pulling the deck off of the riding mowers I have had.
