Little Wheels that Could

A great purchaseWith all the workings going on around the farm – one of the things that still needs to get taken care of is mowing the grass.  The only consideration is – do you really want to keep that 60″ deck on the tractor when you are trying to get over piles of dirt and rock as you dig the holes for the leanto posts…  while you plow the garden plots to turn the green manure in…   when you are generally NOT mowing…

Well – I’m telling you – these little 3 wheel dollies from Lowes are just the trick to drop the mower deck down onto for easy maneuvering of the heavy implement under the tractor – making on and off activities easy and pain-free (for a change).  I had thought about these before – but decided to take the plunge on the total $21 investment with all the activities this spring – in an effort to literally “buy me some time”.  Short answer is – they work in spades!  Just a quick broom sweeping of the way so no little stone catches the little wheels…  drop the deck on them, pull the pins connecting to the tractor, disconnect the PTO shaft – and the deck rolls right out.  Putting it back on is a revers of the actions – and equally as simple.  Who would have thought that a set of 4 – 3 wheel dollies would be one of my favorite Kubota implements! :)
