Using brush cutter

DONOTDELETE · 07-05-2001, 09:34 PM

I've got a rather light compact tractor with a 5' brush cutter. The tractor has filled tires but I wasn't operating with FEL nor do I have suitcase weights. I'm concerned about cutting in the woods on my trails. Can anyone please point me to a discussion on how (or whether) to operate on hills or uneven terrain? Seems like there was a good thread a few months ago discussing whether to back up a hill, for instance.

I just had an experience of front wheels lifting up going up an incline, and I can tell you it's not fun. Next time I go out I intend to have some weight in the front.
