  • Page 107: Tractor Horsepower

    The power required to operate a mower is determined by the tractor PTO horsepower. For most mowing conditions, the 172 mower requires a tractor with at least 35 HP. Operating the mower with a tractor that does not have adequate power may damage the tractor engine. Exceeding 75 HP may cause mower damage by overpowering the unit in heavy cutting conditions.
