mowing tight spaces...with big mowers

   / mowing tight spaces...with big mowers #11  
++ For a rear finish mower. I use a 60in and it does a great job everywhere. For very tight spaces I use a hand mower or string trimmer.

I have a 72 inch rear finish mower. I took mulch and made round corners in my yard so that the mower gets every thing.

I do use a liquid trimmer a couple times a year.

Lots of comments about adusting your landscaping to work with the mower....post some pics! There is one area where I had already planned to do that...will probably gradually do it in others as well

I mow with a B7800 and a 6 ft belly mower and it will do most everything I want. If the trees were too low I raised them and the spaces too tight I widened them I mowed them wider. If I couldn't make it work after that I used a push mower, weed whacker, Roundup weedkiller or just left it. Your property looks like an easy mow.

I would also look into a Kubota BX, I have one and it mow's great especially uphill. Those things seem to have more power than it needs to mow. The rated engine RPM's on them are 3200RPM but the mid PTO 2500RPM which is what you should run the MMM at it around 3000RPM. And at 3000 RPM mowing is a breeze. It climbs hills with no problem. It really has more power then needed when mowing.
