How does the mower get powered - if hydro - would the Avant have enough oil flow for a 36 or 48" deck?considering swapping jd 455 garden tractor mower and 4ft bobcat for an avant with mower attachment. good idea or terrible?

You sit at the rear on the new ones. We had a new 528 on demo, plenty of power, could lift silage bales, but would've needed rear weights (they can be bought from Avant). A bit expensive and the cows were afraid of it, but a great all arounder. There's also Norcar, which is also made in finland, i like it even better than Avant. Get a Avant coupler on it and enjoy, it's also cheaper.The cabs on the wrong end of the pivot,great for forward visibility but you always have to look where the rear is going.
wacker neuson do one, I have a dealer very close to me, anyone know if they are ok?

@Finn farmer : I like the look of the Norcar (a7236). Is an Avant coupler available as an off-the-shelf item? Does it replace the Norcar coupler, or is it an add-on adapter? Obviously Avant have a much bigger range of attachments, but is their coupler a better design?You sit at the rear on the new ones.
