I just finished brush hogging and after noting that I need to slow down to get the quality I'm used to I checked the blades and found them to be extremely dull. Again. I had them sharpened in the spring.
I don't have air tools or a compressor big enough to run many of the air tools, and so I have not wanted to fool with taking the blades off myself, but its also a pain hauling the tractor 28 miles to the dealer to get him to do it.
I note that many of you use a grinder and do the sharpening without taking the blades off.
(1) Is there an electric portable grinder that would do the trick?
(2) Can you also get to the top of the blades with the blades mounted?
(3) What you do to make sure the brush hog doesn't fall and squash you?
(4) How do you make sure the blades are balanced without taking them off?
(5) If a bear farts in the woods, does it make a smell?
