First of all, I would like to say thanks to everyone in this forum for all the expertise and the honest discussion here that led me to purchase my Toolcat 5600 D series back in April. I've watched this forum for some time now and this is my first posting. I've used my TC to start a weed spraying business in Montana and I am very pleased with this piece of equipment. It's been a very busy summer and I've put this machine to the test in some of the roughest terrain imaginable while carrying 200 gallons of spray solution and rocking out to the satellite radio.
One thing I've learned is DO NOT get the TC stuck because getting this thing out of the mud sucks. I found a mud hole a couple of weeks ago and had to hire an excavator to get me out. Anyways, I'll post some pictures on that when I have time.
Right now, I'd like to hear from some of the experienced mowers in the forum if they have tried using a rotary mower on the TC to mow slightly steeper right-of-ways while crab-steering sideways? I am purchasing a Brush Buster from Quick-Attach because it seems Bobcat is having some difficulty keeping these mowers in stock and keeping these things manufactured in the US. Does anyone have any opinions on the Quick-Attach mower versus the Brushcat? They seem pretty comparable but I'd like to say that Quick-Attach has great customer service.
