have you looked at the Landpride web page. Sometimes they have brochures that you open with Adobe and you can get the specs. I have a 6 foot 5 Points rotary cutter by KingKutter (they have some additional features and a better paint job the the typical KK) and without the guards it weighs 725 pounds. My TO-30 will pick it up and actually be steerable with it but I will ballast the front tires before I use it on the -30. ( I have a Ford 4610 that I use it on.)I'm leary of getting anywhere hilly with it without the ballast in the front tires. I would say as long as your mower is under about 600-650 pounds and you don't have any steep hills you would be OK. You can also ballast the front with wheel weights (if you can find them) or with winterized windshield washer cleaning fluid( good to 20-25F below).
There is an analytic method to determine the static stability if you know the center of gravity(cg) location of the tractor and the mower and the distances between the rear and front wheels of the tractor and the rear wheel of the mower. If your interested, I posted it in the archives about a month ago and I'll go look it up. It's pretty simple, just balancing moments about the rear wheel of the tractor but getting the data on the cg location is the tough part.
