How well does these blades work on El Toro Zoysia? Zoysia is thick and makes the cord bounce resulting in choppy cut. Is this the ticket?

the blades are very sturdy and SHARP the only time I have had any bounce is that I'm cutting something to thick. These blades are bad A?? they work very well on grass and weeds

You don't have to worry about this blade cutting any type grass - I have cut 1/2" saplings with it, BUT they do say to use it horizonally only, not for use as an edging tool.

Angie I have a z425 with a 54 inch deck and ordered these at the beginning of the season. Hands down the best blades and best cut I have seen on my JD.

I agree with the previous answer. I use these blades on a JD 320 with a 48c deck with the mulching conversion kit. In the spring I have to cut more often, but no bagging or raking.

The only thing I've had a hard time mowing through is tall weeds/rushes. The front bar will push them down, the blade then cannot cut the plant. To be honest I don't know what grass I have, but I am on GA, so it very well may be St. Augustine.

We are using for cutting golf green grass we bought and have grown for a putting green. It works well for that. Honestly not sure what zoysia grass is.

I've only used the 1/4 x 1/2" orange blade....works great as a rough chop. good size for chili, etc.

Another guy asked a question just like this. Someone said this blade worked with a variety of Andis trimmers. Look into the return policy and experiment. Then let me know how it works out.

My blade starting catching after a fair bit of use. I had them sharpened by Ace and that did not help. For about $22 you can buy new ones and they have been great, so far. Clipping hair when clean helps prolong the life of the blade tremendously.

Zoysia is a very tough grass. I have grown it in the past in Florida with great success. Your blades would have to be kept very sharp. You would also need to keep it on a low setting. I used a rotary mower on mine. Reel mowers are the best to use on Bermuda.

Don't buy these blades. They do cut but, they do not move enough air, to push the grass from the mower deck. These blades are flat. Home made blades that do not work. Plus it will cost you more to return them then you paid for them. I tried them 3 times they suck do not buy them

I had the same thing happen. Mine are 15 months old, and I've oiled them after (nearly) every use. They just started making a bad buzzing sound, and now they won't cut at all. I think it is the plastic piece that holds the moving blade, as you describe... I will try one more, but if it breaks I may invest in a $120 true professional clipper...

I could not get mine to work at...buy a Blade chopper...they are 100 times better.

All I can say is that the blades should move end to end not back and forth/side to side. I have not had this problem/issue so I cannot say for sure what to or not to do. Good luck.

Not that I know of. But I'd check with Back and Becker to be sure. I've used my trimmer a lot and haven't noticed that the blades have any difficulty cutting.

First, do not use a long extension cord instead plug direct to the outlet. When cutting, do not push hard, let the blade do its work. For parts, call rikon parts department. I never have problem with mine.

Zoysia grass is designed to be cut 1 to 3" inches, My McLane experience is that front throw mower will cut to short for Zoysia, its best suited for Bermuda.....(low flat, putting green levels)

We haven't had any problems with it clogging up. But I can't say that it wouldn't. I would guess that if you were trying to cut tall, wet grass, that might be a possibility. We have zoysia grass and haven't had any clogging issues at all. We don't cut the grass really short and it's dry when we cut it.
