Read articles →This is the third of three mowing episodes at Dave's property, and its real value is a direct back-to-back comparison: the Yanmar YT359C (59hp, anti-stall) pulling the 10-foot Rhino TS10 flex-wing mower through heavy overgrown pasture versus an earlier episode's John Deere 5075E doing the same job. Tim discusses PTO horsepower ambiguity, anti-stall versus load-match behavior, transmission efficiency, cab AC comparisons, and the TS10's real-world pulling ease across tractor sizes. Best for owners comparing sub-compact/compact tractors on tough mowing or considering this mower's power needs.
Posted by Tractor Time with Tim, an enthusiast/hobbyist channel that shares hands-on, unsponsored impressions from real use on family property rather than dealer-style promotion.
Yes, the 59hp Yanmar YT359C pulled the TS10 through heavy overgrown pasture, though its anti-stall feature slowed it down more aggressively than the John Deere's load match under heavy load.
The functionality is similar but anti-stall feels more aggressive, slowing the tractor down and not speeding back up until engine load drops below 100 percent.
No, surprisingly the 10-foot TS10 flex wing pulls essentially identically to a 6-foot single spindle mower, which the presenter attributes to efficient material handling under the deck.
30 PTO horsepower will not handle it in heavy conditions like this, but it works for lighter growth if you mow multiple times per year and keep it under control.
