Not saying the poster was using the mower as a "Rotary Cutter" to cut fields but from his post it reads like maybe he was. (use the husky to haul around a towed mower for the field ) No mower in the Husky price range will last long when being used as a rotary cutter. I don't think a mower that would cost considerable more than a Husky would last if it was used for field mowing.
