Rotary Cutter Bush Hog Blades

[sandman2234]

I had a separation, but it was less of an event (follow-on to my above note about watching the slop in the stump jumper). Had the stump jumper, along with the blades, fly out from the RC. Was way out in the sticks, in the brush. I had to employ the services of my wife and my dog to locate it. Heavy mass like that didn't travel very far: but with all the brush it was hard to locate.

All is a reason why I decided to migrate to flails: less brush cutting these days, so a flail makes more sense.

I could find the lost blades and stumpjumper in the first 5 mins with my lawnmower after i put on a set of new blades!

Oh yeah, thanks for the tip (if only lawnmower blades could hold up to anything larger than a toothpick)!

My point was, anytime I put a new set of blades on the lawnmower, the first pass I usually hit a piece of steel or concrete, or at least a good stout root! Your stumpjumper and blades would be a magnet for a new set of blades!!

I hit rocks and stumps all the time with my brush mower and haven't damaged a single blade yet.
