52 TTHP Stripping kit

[ztoro]

Do you have a diagram of how the TTHP roller mounts? I went on your website but didnt see one. Before I buy I would like to see how it mounts. Can post diagram of how it mounts?

Thanks

If you have anti scalp wheel in the back it mounts to that if not the kit comes with the brackets needed. I was going to order one but when it came in the kit had a 17" roller for the 48" deck, Not exactly what i call a stripe kit IMO.

Playboy,
I knew that it was a small roller basically to fill in between the wheels. the wheels would a better better job of striping than the roller anyway.


Exmark,

I received the kit today for the TTHP 52" , However the box says tthp 48? is this right? before I open it i want to make sure it is the same kit as the 52.

Let me know if I need to send it back and get the right kit..

Also just picked up my 27 Liquid Cooled 60" Lazer Z......... SSSSWWWEEETTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks

Z toro/Rob,

The roller for the 48 and 52 are one in the same. I'm not sure why the label it as a 48 but I'm sure it has something to do with simplicity and reducing the number of models.

27 Liquid cooled.................now that is SWEEEEET! She kind purrs doesn't she.

See what i mean. I was sent a roller for the 36" deck. 17" roller. You where sent a roller for the 48" and you have a 52" deck. Measure the roller and measure the distance you have between the wheels. For me, a 17" roller was supposed to go in between my wheels which have about 24" space. Thats a 7" differance....... I didn't want a 3.5" gap in my stripes.
BTW I am in no way bad mouthing the kit. i want one, but i want one that fits.

I mounted the kit and did some mowing with it. I used to use a proslide so I didnt need a striping kit, but now I have a casting sulky so I wanted to have good stripes.. This roller does a great job. It leaves one solid stripe even though the roller does not span the full distance between the tires.

There are only two models for the Turf Tracer HP. The 36" model and the 48/52" model.

So what is the length on the 48/52" model? My dealer ordered and reordered a kit for my 48" TTHP and 3 times was sent a 36" kit (17" roller). When he finally called he said Exmark told him thats what they are using for the 48" due to problems with the 48" stripe kit.

i like the look of the roller compared to chains. It's hidden behind the deck and I don't have to explain myself to every one when they see the chains hanging off the back of my mower.

Playboy,

The 36" roller is a little over 17" and the 48/52 is a little over 20". Because there is not enough room behind the deck for a full width striping roller the Turf Tracer HP roller only stripes between the drive tires. When combinded with the width of each drive tire it leaves a stripe nearly the width of the deck on a 36" and stripes all but the outside couple of inches on the 48" models. It actually works pretty good for most.

Thanks

Man I'd like to see a pic of the kit on a 48" TTHP. I understand the concept of having to go in between the wheels because of the edge of the deck you mount the brackets to but the dealer told me he was told by exmark that the 17" was for the 48" and the 20" was for the 52". What I don't get is why does the 36" deck get the correct roller size? A 20" roller on a 48" isn't as bad as the 17" on it. If I could just find some one that has it or if I could see pics of the stripes it makes i would order the 20" roller.

[ztoro]

Terry,

Is the frame of the 48 the same as the 52? If so I will snap some shots of the kit mounted on my deck so Playboy can see what it looks like.

Thanks
Rob

Ztoro,

Yes, the engine decks are identical between the 36, 48 and 52" models. The 48" and 52" share the same wheel motor mount and the 36" wheel motor mount is unique to that model.
