I Can\'t Decide

I can't decide whether I love my Brush Hog Rotary Cutter Or my ATI QuickTach Forks more. I got to use my rotary cutter for the second time today and it was just beautiful.

What is your favorite attachment.

Re: I Can\'t Decide

I know nothing can replace the FEL but for simple gratification I prefer using a good quality tiller, I love to watch that thing chew dirt. I love those Rotary cutters as well. I like all of emm though, who can decide?

Re: I Can\'t Decide

I guess it's a toss up between the FEL and the backhoe.

Re: I Can\'t Decide

Mine is the same as ed's fel and back hoe but but looking too buy more like looking at post hole digger and rear rake

Re: I Can\'t Decide

I see that you have a SQ600 rotary cutter. I'm glad you got one of the good ones. They drilled the hole in the blade carrier (stumpjumper) off-center on some of them and I got one of them (actually two - they swapped out the first one for another one just like it). This and other problems were brought to the attention of Bush Hog to no avail.

It is a piece of junk! I parked it in the weeds and am using an old six footer that I bought at an auction for $130. It works like a dream compared to the new Squealer. I will NEVER own anything else that BUSH HOG makes again. They will not stand behind their products.

I really like my Bearcat 554 Chipper/Shredder. Turning branches into chips is very satisfying./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif I do like my KK rotary mower too. Not only works well but it was cheap. Makes me smile to watch the weeds and saplings disappear./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Re: I Can\'t Decide

BeeBop,
You are right that the FEL is probably the best attachment out there. I just don't tend to think of my FEL as an attachment, I couldn't see having a tractor without it. No offense to you guys without a FEL. I'm sure I would be amazed at the stuff you guys get done without one.

Ed,
Boy I sure envy your backhoe. I wish I could justify one but I haven't been able to yet. I'm sure if I had one that it would be my favorite too.

Re: I Can\'t Decide

TBone,
How could you tell the hole was off center? Mine shakes a bit like it is a little out of balance.

Peter,

Well said, as I was reading this I had the same thought, however after that comes my wife, the BH then the FEL, not necessarily in that order depending on the day and the task at hand.

Re: I Can\'t Decide

It is amazing the number of projects both me and my wife have thought up now that we have the backhoe. Now it is just a matter of time and money for the materials to get those projects done. Looks like a lot of "Seat Time" comong.

Re: I Can\'t Decide

When I got the first one I called the dealer I bought it from and told him it was shaking real bad. He said that Bush Hog had contacted them and told them about the off center problem and they (Bush Hog) were recalling the bad ones. The dealer sent me another one out that had supposedly checked out ok but it does the same thing, although not as bad.

I don't think there is anyway to visually verify the problem. I guess you could pull the blade carrier (stumpjumper) off and take an accurate measurement of the hole location somehow and see if it is off center.

Bush Hog won't even answer my emails anymore.
