Meg Mo Blades?

[Merk]

I live 45 to 50 miles to the east of Maxwelhse. The only solution I found is mow more often (2-3 days). I haven't found a mower that can handle tall grassThe speed up pulley and gator blades will help.

The grass will stick to the deck easier anytime I mow when it is wet.

Thanks for all of the feedback!

Ugh.... Every 2-3 days just isn't gonna do it. 1 time a week is what I'm after. Honestly, if you're that close to me you know that there are times in the spring that you just CAN'T mow more than once a week. WAAAY too wet. Didn't we go like 15 straight days of rain last month? I didn't get a chance to do my FIRST mowing until 2 weeks ago...

The sticking to the deck when mowing wet is one of the things the meg-mo blades are supposed to really help out with.

Sadly, I had some unexpected expenses and can't swing 'em (pun intended) this month. June will be my time and I will certainly let a couple of strips grow TALL to give them a good test!

I check weather site for the last 6 weeks. Most days straight it rain where I lived was 3 days in a row.

My first mowing was 3 weeks ago.

In August, you will have your wish of once a week!

December, TOO!!

Just wondering if anyone ever tried these out on a 44a/50a ?

I was curious as well and ordered a set for my 1512 w/50c deck. And they are no better or worse than a normal non high lift set from the hardware store.
I need to speed up the rpm of the deck somehow because this setup mows like crap compared to the last one (682/50c) but i had a set of gator blades on that one and you could pretty much mow thru anything within reason without going over it again. This mower seems to be running the deck very slow (sound wise) compared to the gasser one.
Im working on a solution.

I'm not sure what modifications you have in mind, but you may just need the speed-up pulley for your deck. I would think a C deck would already have it, but you never know!

Quick and easy to install.

I already ordered one. I am also looking to get a bigger pto pulley. If I can upsize it from the 4-1/2" i have now to the 6" one along with the speed up pulley on the deck i should come close to doubling the my current speed.
