It covers warm-up procedure, RPM range for PTO operation (3000-3200), switching between low and high range, and the 60-inch fabricated deck's cut quality and contour-following. The creator also addresses a rattling noise and mowing around trees with ROPS folded. Best for SA324 buyers wanting a genuine in-use look rather than a static demo.
Posted by the DoodleTract channel, which appears to be an owner sharing hands-on experience from their own property.
After warming up the engine in low range around 2400 RPM, the engine speed is increased to the PTO-rated range of 3000 to 3200 RPM for mowing.
The rattling comes from the mower deck wheels moving in their mounts because the deck is partially suspended by the three-point hitch rather than resting its full weight on the wheels.
It follows yard contours well, with deck wheels pushed to the edges to eliminate scalping, producing an even side to side cut and good discharge.
Yes, with the ROPS folded down the operator mows under and around apple trees and under a clothesline, aided by an eight and a half foot turning radius.
