Great tool to have in the Do It Your Self garage.
This mower lift is exactly what I wanted. I wish this was available 30 years ago.

Very stable, smooth, very safe, simple
Lifts and lowers quickly and very safe. I have a JD Z530R which weighs about 800 lbs if you lift the entire machine, but for servicing you only lift the front (engine in back) which is a fraction of the overall, way under the 500 lb lift. Can only lift 20 or more inches as back of machine has hitch extension. Can easily deal with that.

    Great for lifting mower.
    I was worried about assembling but no problem only 3 parts to put on. Took me maybe 2 min to do them. I also bought a blade lock to hold the blades in place while changing blades. You drive the mower up onto the two wheel holder jack up a little and use the two straps to hold in place. Secure retires with a couple of 2x4. Raise the mower to the desire amount secure the blade with the blade lock and remove old blade one at a time. Only problem I had was getting it to lower but that was just me not the unit. If a 73 year old can use this anyone can.

      Must have tool ...
      Can't emphasize how great this jack is for getting underneath the cutting deck to clean and/or change blades. it is built heavy and strong. If you own a riding lawnmower, I can't imagine not having this.

        This lift is high quality and very safe to use. It allows the mower to be lifted and I can change the blades in under 5 minutes. I should have purchased this year’s ago.

        Does the job, very impressed!
        Lifts my John Deere L120 very easy and lowers it slowly so it doesn't slam into the ground. Very easy to use and is perfect for changing blades and deck maintenance. Absolutely love this jack.

          MoJack HDL 500 Lawn Mower Lift
          This is an amazing piece of equipment! Much lighter than I thought it would be, quality made, easy to use, easy to get on and off the lift by rotating front tires with my hands (lift slides on the floor getting off it sometimes but plan on putting rubber on the bottom of the wheel supports). Like other reviewers stated, the jack handle does hit my hood. I am going to see if I can put in a curved adapter into the jack to solve that but even if I can't, it's really not a huge deal, just slow jacking at first, then clearance increases as it jacks up so therefore the speed of jacking increases. Very stable, fast jacking, controlled speed coming down, easy to release safety catches. What I wish: it would be helpful if it could stand vertically on the floor but you have to hang it from the wall. I am going to add a plate so as to be able to just stand it up. I love it! P.S. Company communication is fantastic. I have sent them numerous questions and they are quick to answer.

            Product packed excellent in the carton. Minimal assembly, only inserting the brackets that hold the mower front wheels and the bottle jack handle is required. It effortlessly lifts my John Deere D-130 tractor. Reviews I read show much larger zero-turns lifted easily. The units stability in the reviews read led me to this lift. I've only used it twice and its made blade maintenance and deck cleaning simple. No need to remove the deck.Built in safety stops at 12, 18 and 24 inches are a nice feature. Some reviews mentioned it lowers slowly. With my JD tractor that's only @ 35 seconds. Better slow then all at once. I tried a competitive brand rated at 300 lbs but returned it the same day purchased as it was wobbly and did not fold very flat. This unit is close to folding flat as you can get plus I have it hung on my wall using a two armed hose bracket. I would highly recommend this jack.

            The first reason for buying this lift is because it can fold up and hang on a wall. The second reason is that it can lift 500 lbs. I have a John Deere X584 24.5 hp V twin tractor that that has a total weight of 750 lbs. I'm not sure how much the front end weights but it must be around 350 lbs. The lift worked perfectly lifting the tractor with ease plus the slow acting hydraulic piston allows the tractor to lower slowly. The safety latches and tire anchors give me a sense of security and the tractor is stable even when raised to the full 26 inches.

              Have to flip my front tires around on my 52. Also, when jacking this thing up, it isn't very responsive. The thing seems to go up about a half an inch at a time as you're jacking it up. not good. I have several ZTR mowers & this jack is time consuming, not productive.

                  Best Product for the Job
                  I needed to work on my tractor/mower specifically to check and replace the blades if required. This lifter worked as advertised and was simple to use. It made the task simple and quick. I am very glad I purchased it.

                  This thing is GREAT even on a 60" Ariens Max Zoom Zero Turn mower!!
                  Setup was incredibly easy for the jack. It took no more than 10 minutes to get it put together. Once assembled, I tried driving my Ariens 60" Zero Turn mower onto the wheel lifts but the jack started to move away from me on the slippery garage floor. I thought I might not be able to use it with this mower as it kept happening. The trick for me was to put the jack wheel lifts right up to the tire then it worked just fine. Lifting the mower was effortless and the safety catches work well. The only other issue is with my mower itself. The back muffler plate/engine guard hits the ground when you get close to the second safety catch so I can't go all the way up to the 24" mark unless I want the back muffler area fully supporting the back end of the mower (which I don't). I accidentally did that the first time without realizing I was doing it. So, the lift does do it's part perfectly AND my particular mower will lift to the full 24" but I might be bending the muffler plate in the very back of the mower. I can't blame the lift for that. The quality is really great. Very thick parts and I feel the design is safe and sturdy. Definitely recommended! Photos below to show the product in use at only the first safety stop with plenty of room to work on the deck!

                  Excellent Lawn Tractor Lift
                  Purchased my Mo Jack HDL Lift from Home Depot ,the price was less than I thought it would be when looking at the display model.( $199.00 ) Unit is well built and has a 500lb. capacity. My John Deere X320 works fine with this lift ,and has a hyd. jack not a hand crank . Nylon straps go around the tires for added safety and a three position automatic safety catch(18",21"24") to keep the tractor from falling . You can get under the 48" deck for cleaning and blade maintenance with no trouble. And hangs on the wall when not being used. Hope this review helps those looking for a excellent lift.

                  The jack did not work at all. No fluid was in the jack. Even after filling the jack with the proper fluid it still would not work.

                  Excellent lawn mower lift
                  This lawn mower lift does exactly what it supposed to do. I had a scary moment when I brought it up and could not lower it. The trick is to stop right after safety bar drops (or wait later if you don't) The support was spectacular. They answered my trouble call on the first ring and were to the point to helping me with my problem. All steps are in the manual, but it's somewhat not obvious until you actually follow the steps. Assembly is super simple. Overall, I am happy with this lift.
