As said by others, with FEL on you have to be aware that it sticks out in front a bit and makes your tractor a little longer. I would say that if you are bushhogging in a place so tight that the FEL is a problem, you should probably be using something else to mow that area with. The FEL is so useful to push over bushes, move stuff when mowing, even good for laying over high weeds to keep the trash out of your radiator. I wouldnt run a bush hog without my loader on. For working gardens or something small or confined with a tiller or disc, maybe it is easier to remove it, but those chores usually take just a few minutes. For me I can usually raise it up to clear fences etc easier than removing it. I rarely go out with my tractors that I dont need to use the FEL for something unplanned, therefore they stay on.
