Skid Steer Brush cutter opinions!

[Todd727]

Been really happy with the Bushmaster SL601. Galvanized deck. I've cut stuff I probably shouldn't have. I like that I can reach and cut high with it.

I bought this 7' brush hog on 10/1/2010 from: phiferequipmentsales | eBay

The Website: Phifer Equipment Sales | Tree Terminator by Grace Manufacturing with Phifer Equipment Sales

I like the nose wheel and the hinged mounting plate, that lets the deck follow the ground.

Now since we have moved, my wife runs it on her Toolcat. :thumbsup:

grace manufacturing products are good stuff. I haven't tried their mower but they had the best customer service I have ever had on heavy attachments. I've told this story before but when my shear was a few months old, the blade bolts failed on a hard tree causing the fulcrum effect that bent the massive pins. I dropped it off at Bobcat on a Friday (the distributor). Grace Mfg. had a truck at Bobcat in San Antonio Monday morning, shipped it to Missouri to their factory, repaired and repainted the shear, and shipped it back. I got it back on Thursday or Friday. I was absolutely astonished and amazed. They didn't swap mine out.. they repaired it! If that is any indication of the quality controls at Grace, that mower is a good investment.

I'll agree with yellowdog, we have four of their mowers. Anytime we've had a problem they have been great to work with. I would hate to mow without the hinged front. All you have to do is set it down roll it forward a little and mow.

I just sold my Brushcat today. It was the 6'. It was a great tool but for where I live, i thought it was just too heavy to carry around. Bobcat wants me to demo one of their new style brushcats but i want to try the tree terminator too. I used my tree terminator shear yesterday...I've had it 7 or 8 years..maybe longer and it is still as bad a## as it was when I got it. I hope the mower is as tough.
