That is pretty nifty! Do you need the tire chains for this job, or do you just leave them on all the time?
The link pycoed posted looks like some Mad Max nightmare contraption!
I just leave them on.

What size GPM motor are you using?
I have a hedge row that is about 250 feet long and it takes me several days every year to trim it with an electric hedge trimmer. I decided to build a man sized hedge trimmer for my Kioti. I went looking for a sickle bar for a Cub and found one. I sand blasted it and painted it then started designing a mount and drive system for it. I bought a hydraulic motor and machined an eccentric flywheel. I took it out for a test drive and it now takes me less than an hour to trim the entire hedge row.View attachment 564482View attachment 564479View attachment 564480View attachment 564481
