Yesterday I mowed about 2 acres without removing the FEL or BH from my BX22. I’ve run the MMM before like that, but just to hit a spot or two. Why did I do it? Well I just wanted to try it. I’ve seen posts that others never remove their BH & FEL, so I thought I’d give it a whirl.
Let me say it wasn’t much fun. I’ve got a lot of trees to cut around plus fences to trim next to. I was lucky I didn’t bash something with the FEL or BH. I constantly had to raise or lower the FEL to keep from hitting something. It turned a very maneuverable machine a very awkward one. Maybe if I had completely open, flat land it would have been OK, but the least little dip or bump makes the BX pretty bouncy.
I thought I might save some time by leaving the attachments on, but I had to go so slow, I’m not sure the overall project was any quicker at all.
Next time I’ll take ‘em off, for sure.
