Mowing

[Kohala]

Deep in the Guinea grass of North Kohala Hawaii. Kubota MX5200 with a RCR1872 cutter.

Oooh. I don't get jealous often... But I am now. I have been to the Big Island once and if I ever go back that is probably where I will spend most of my time.

All I can barely see is some sort of canopy cover. Duck blind?

Welcome to TBN!

The canopy cover was made locally by an excellent craftsman as a gift. The frame is 1/2 in galvanized conduit. He had a lot of waterproof camouflage cloth to use up. Good to ride in the shade. No need for a cab here.

Any critters in that deep grass?

X2. Keep an eye on radiator and temps. Especially of HST....don't take much and debris and she will start running hot

No critters to worry about in the grass. The cattle egrets follow behind to pick off the bugs like gulls behind a fishing boat. No snakes in Hawaii to worry about. The temp went up while mowing so I did my first screen clean. The 6 foot cutter is at its limit behind the MX in this grass. Low range the whole time.

Did 30 acres of conservancy land mowing yesterday. Lots of 10’ tall miserable Bradford Pear and radiator-clogging goldenrod.

Anyone notice what I almost hit in first picture (below)?

Hit a chunk of concrete and bent a blade. My DeWalt 60v impact has just enough to remove the 1&1/2“ bolts…
