Nice! I'm jealous. I love bush hogging, it's probably my favorite thing to do.

Thanks, I like it a lot better on this machine than on the old tractor. It was 70 degrees and sunny. Had to turn on the A/C!

What size is that bush hog?

What size is that bush hog?

It is 7'. I run it on Hi Flow, about 1800 rpm.

Cut about 2 acres today.

Thanks. I run a 6 ft on my series A. Lot more hills than you have. Any trouble with hydraulics heating up?

No over heating so far. Just the second day using the mower on this machine.

I wish it had a hydraulic oil temperature gauge. I checked the hoses after about two hours, kinda warm, but not too hot to hold on to.

Does this qualify as a hill?



This was the first time on the back of the dam, it has a high pucker factor!

What hill? I see a Toolcat on flat ground, looks like one of our little league fields. Just kidding, that qualifies. I use mine mainly for cleanup around fences and corners after cutting hay or bush hogging ( 15 ft batwing ). I like that front wheel on yours. Another great and handy attachment is a grapple.

May GOD keep you safe

Yep, that front wheel is why I got this brand. notice the rear is on a hinge at the top of the SSQA, so the front wheel stays on the ground.



Unless you pick it up.




I agree on the grapple, I have two, but use them mostly on the V417.

I have been to Tennessee several times, so I know what your hills are like!

This is the area that I am cutting.

Some before and after shots, looking out the windshield at the front mount mower.

Got that area done, will do the brush in the upper left next.

Are you going up and down, angled or sideways? Often my problem is, if I have a runaway or slide going up and down, I have no landing zone at the bottom.

That's a nice job.

May GOD keep you safe

Thanks.

I was going sideways on the dam. Got some much needed rain, so have to wait til it dries before I can mow some more.

Don't mess with the tree terminator!

Finished cutting brush in the low meadow today.

Going down the back of the dam.


Thick brush and cedar trees. The view out the windshield.


Backed up to show the cut.


Before, see the brush in the upper left.


After.

Looks good. Now what are you going to do with it?

Concentrate on cutting cedar trees!

 

[birddog0304]

What about the cleared ground?

 

[Xfaxman]

Hope the grass grows, horse pasture.
