Newbie here; CFC 20L mower question

Recommended Posts

Hey all- I'm new on this forum. I'm looking at buying a used Simplicity CFC20L zero turn mower, and it needs hydro drive work( doesn't do hills very well). Does anyone have any experience with these units regarding reliability, parts availability, performance etc.? Thanks FLRyder FLRyder

To my knowledge there isnt a Zero Turn mower that is any good at all on hills. Its just a design thing,, they are designed for spinning around in tight circles and not for traction. I'd reccomend staying away from them unless you are mowing predominately flat ground. Sam

My yard is relatively flat, which is good. I've searched around, but have only seen a few references to this mower. Thanks FLRyder

I have one of those mowers. They do a great job. Have not had any problems at all. Mine is 20 Kohler with 60 inch deck. They are geared very high, it was probably used on hills and that may have hurt the hydros. They do make kit to lower the gearing on them. Terry

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
