Much of my cutting is in that manner also.All., thank you! keep the comments coming. About 80% of my mowing is done going backwards. I live in a holler and to keep the roads and ditches clean its usually a case of backing the mower over the edge back and forth all the way, thank God for HST. I know that is not the intended design of a rottery cutter. But i dont have a flat peice of ground on this place except where i have made it flat. How do you thing using a chain would work out mowing backwards.
I do have a hydraulic top link and a flexible link on my brush hog.
The flex link allows the mower to raise up in the rear while backing into banks and such,
then the hydraulic top link allows me the ability to lower the rear of the mower when backing over the bank and clearing lower then the tractor.
