I haven't fixed it. It actually went down with a fuel problem I haven't sorted out either and I just parked it and have been using something else till I have time to tear it down.

Yea I'm sure I'm pushing it a bit. The field I was in had a few things that were pinky sized and knee high. I've cut some 2" sumac trees with it it but always back over those so I don't expose the lines to abuse. Ironic that it went down on the easy stuff. I'll get some zip ties and try to...

Found it. Should I throw some tape on that connection so it doesn't unhook again? Or is it easier to plug that back in vs having the wires ripped out....?

Looks like maybe wire was connected somewhere and the end snapped off. I don't see where it was attached though.

Was engaged brush hogging and just stopped spinning. I had been doing some thick stuff earlier in the day but at the time it was mostly just broom straw. Light is on just no rotation. It's the compact 34HP 1250. What should I be testing first to troubleshoot it?

No rocks or trees to worry about. I'm reclaiming old pasture that haven't been maintained in 10+ years so lots of 1-5" saplings. Mostly sumac so they're pretty soft so 2" or so gets brush hugged. Anything bigger and I just picked up a Woodland Mills WM88 shipper for.

Right now I'm cleaning up tons of over grown brush and the brush hog cuts everything I can run over. The brush hog was a $250 marketplace find so I don't mind beating it up. However once everything is back to "normal" I'm thinking the flail mower may be better for regular maintenance. Shorter...

Been looking at flail mowers lately and it looks like people are driving pretty slow in the videos. I'm on the low end of the HP spec, 34, for the 6' brush hog I'm currently using but it handles what im cutting fine. If I hooked up to a 6' flail mower would it cut just adequately and allow the...

No it doesn't have a loader (and is still broke down lol) it'd be for a 34hp compact 1250

This one:

Would the cheap vevor be worth trying?

What do y'all like individual teeth or a bar? 6' bucket and 34HP MF tractor.

No problems mentioned in the listing. At a dealer that sells a ton of equipment locally.

I know location plays a big part in it but does $12k for a gear drive LS 4047 with under 1100 hours sound right?

Took longer that I wanted because there aren't too many radiator shops locally that deal with repairs but I found one that called me today and said that the core is ruptured and a repair wouldn't hold. So it'll be recored and hopefully ready at the end of this coming week. I honestly don't know...
