Just picked up a B7610 with a RCK54-24B deck. Need to get the deck off. Does anyone know if this is a drive over deck and if not how to remove/reinstall? Much thanks

I have a B7300 and drive over my RCK60-24B deck with the front tires. The deck comes with two bent metal ramps, but mine are long lost now. I simply use a couple 4x4's to get the wheels up on the deck.

Just watch out for the square plate on the right of the deck. It will tear up your right tire quick if you're not careful.

I have a 2003 B7500, which I believe is three models before your B7610. I have the RCK60-24B (60" cutting width) MMM. My RCK60-24B is definitely NOT a drive-over deck.

I had the B7510 from 2005 and it was not drive over, I don't think those came out till much later. If I remember right I just pulled the rear pins, disconnected drive shaft and released the front anchor. Really easy on concrete and I think my rollers swiveled by pulling the pin and turning them at a 90* then you could roll it out sideways.

Glad to find a 7610 owner for a potentially dumb question. When you engage the glow plugs, does the light turn off when temp is reached? It does on my 3240 but is not shutting off on this 7610. I checked the glow plugs and they appear to be fine. Thanks

I'm not sure if mine did or not.. I don't think so. 3-5 seconds should be plenty if not super cold and maybe up to 10 if super cold. I may be wrong but someone will correct me if so.

The glow plug light on my B7500 stays on as long as you hold the key to the glow plug position. Three seconds is usually enough during summer, five to six seconds in winter.

Thanks Rusty! Glad I don't have to dig any deeper on that one.

My RCK60-24B MMM must be an older breed than what you guys are running. Mine is a beast! and a royal pain to try to mount unless I have my FEL to lift the front tires off the ground or just drive over it.
I also have to lift the front end of the tractor to have enough vertical clearance to roll the mmm in/out from under the tractor, however I use a floor jack under the front hanger bracket.
