MoJack 35301 ZR Riding Lawn Mower Lift

I would have rated this product 5 stars except for the following:1. The Amazon page and the manufacturers page both incorrectly state the maximum outside front tire measurement is 45" but the manual states it is 43.5" and that's what I get for a measurement. The error does not affect me but there it is.2. The safety straps as delivered were threaded through the clasp in the wrong direction and would slip when pulled with any force. This is a safety error and mistake made during assembly at the factory. Easy enough to correct but most people are probably going to trust that the manufacturer got it right. Hopefully all of the jacks are not shipped with clasps that don't clasp right because the strap is fed wrong.Otherwise the jack was easy to operate and lifted the mower properly and seems solid. I had a drill ready but ended up just using the included hand crank because it was easy to do that way too. The safety catch seems good but you have to make sure you raise the mower high enough to engage it (there are two notches ... I only went to the first notch.The 250 lb front end weight limit is kind of weird number to make sense of but on the MoJack site they have a sizing chart and for a regular lawn tractor such as mine it states the front end weight may be 30-50% of the total weight. My mower weighs 418 lbs according to specification so 50% of 418 = 209 so it well within the limit.

This lift is good for lifting my Lawn Tractor from the front. Lifting from the back wheels is abit more tricky and dangerous. If lifting from the back wheels be sure to block the front wheels and tie the back wheels to the lift.Now, the lift is adjustable as to the width of the front wheels and has pins to locate the wheel holders. Actually jacking it up is a chore if you do it manually so if you can, try to get an electric drill etc to do it for you. I used it to change my 3 blades after sharpening them. Oh, if your engine is in the front, watch out for oil leakage from the engine after the tractor is back level. Place something absorbent under the engine as mine did leak on my shop floor after I was finished. I love not having to remove the Deck to sharpen my blades. I am 76 and moving that 100+ lb Deck is hard. You should be happy with this purchase. Just remember to strap the front wheels into the wheel holders to be safe. And...I would buy this again knowing what I know now.

This jack has served me well since I started using it earlier this year. It's made out of solid, heavy materials, has always been stable while I've used it, and hasn't shown any signs of wear over the few months that I've been using it. It does take some elbow grease to lift the front of my mower without a drill involved (more on that below), but that's to be expected when you're lifting a couple hundred pounds worth of mower. It's not unbearably difficult, just be prepared for some exercise; I'd say that if you can carry around the lift itself (it's about 40 pounds), you shouldn't have any problems cranking it up. The fact that it collapses fairly flat also makes it easy to hang on a wall for storage.There are a couple things worth noting: First, unless mine was missing a part, there isn't actually a way to raise this lift using a power drill - there's no adapter included to go from a drill chuck to the square hole in the lift. Second, your mower deck could possibly hit part of the lift when you're trying to drive onto the wheel brackets... but this should become a non-issue by just raising your mower deck.

Yanked this lift out of the box and immediately had my mower in the air. Hesitant of some potential safety issues at first but it seemed to work out in the end.1. The safety pins that hold each wheel arm in easily slide right out. There is virtually no resistance and it's a bit unnerving.2. As others mentioned, the straps are fed through the clasp incorrectly out of the box. Make that a priority when setting up. On that note, the straps are low quality.3. Noticed several points where welds are acceptable at best. Sloppy, but probably sufficient.So, it took quite a bit of umph to get the mower in the air. For fun I tried to raise it with a 20v drill and adaptor.. not happening. Kind of feels like there's more resistance than there should be. When I was done, it slides under my work bench hidden from sight until it's time to change blades again. This lift certainly makes deck maintenance a breeze and it worth its weight in gold if it holds up.

I got this because the other lift had too many guys saying the lift failed when the screw stripped. This one also gives access without a part of it under the mower in the way. However, the body of the lift, (the scissor ) stands so tall that the mower bed that holds the blades hits it and prevents the mower from rolling completely over the wheel cups. Because the wheel cups are adjustable, I was able to offset them a notch and got enough of the wheels into the cups to work. I gave it only three stares because it should not have been recommended for zero turn mowers, but rather remained suggested for Tractors.It is constructed very good, as far as the quality of construction is concerned, and does store on wall without disassembly. It rises and lowers easily, in a way that does"t appear to stress the screw shaft, and those wheel straps are a feature I liked, because the wheels can't get totally into the wheel cups. Even so, the whole thing is solid, and cannot be pushed over. I decided to keep it.

Use to pick up my mobility scooter, so I can sit in my wheel chair to change out my batteries, the scooter place used to charge me two hundred dollars to change out my yearly batteries. Two of these at 125 a piece will save me in the long run and I used my cordless drill to raise it up or down. Scooter place used to rape me on the batteries also, whole job used to cost me about six hundred bucks, not any more. 160 for batteries at Amazon, one time fee for lift and it hangs on garage wall when not in use. Been changing my friends batteries too.

Lifted lawnmower enough to clean it out before putting away for the winter. Haven't had it long enough to know the lifespan though.

I service many lawn tractors for my acreage. Works great to get at blades on the cutting decks.

Works exactly as described.

Easy to use. Increased safety a big plus.

Excellent tractor left I would recommend it to anyone
