A mate - retired pro gardener/mower man - recently bought a John Deere 42 inch cut zero turn ride-on for a very competitive price. He is rapt with it.

Because most of our property is on a slope, a lever operated zero turn with front caster wheels would have been to dangerous, I bought a steering wheel operated zero turn. When I do a 'zero turn' the front wheels are at right angles to the machine and one rear wheel is stationary while the mover swings around, ready to cut the next row. Is that how a lever operated Z/T works or do the rear wheels turn in opposite directions and you're facing the row you've just cut?
Just curious, no other reason.

Yep, one forward, one back, you can spin in circles on the spot. Good fun, the one I used for several year at another job was operated on some quite steep ground - they have a very low centre of gravity.
If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.
We have had our kawasaki powered Toro 50" for 8 years and is on its 3rd sets of blades. Apart from one 1 set of blade spindle bearings (due to 20 ' of nylon rope) $14 and easly changed plus a new battery it has been trouble free We have two other mowers a Kubota wich is useless on slopes as needs a difflock and a Greenfield wich was the best on slopes till I modded the Toro .Anybody interested I posted a thread in Non LR technical chat last week that I have been meaning to reply to

That's where I wanted to post my question, but couldn't find it.
