I’ll have to try that
All you need for annual rotary mower maintenance is a few wrenches, a vacuum powered oil evacuator, a laser thermometer and a cordless grease gun . Less than $250 for everything.

I’m still not comfortable with the slip clutch adjustment given the bell shield being in the way. Finger tight plus 3/4 turn? Yeah right. Maybe easy if all was clean shiny and new.

Is there not a drain plug for the oil in the gearbox

I have a Swisher Country Cut (44") 14.5HP Kawasaki Tow-Behind Rough Cut Trail Mower that I pull with my ATV. Not sure if it is considered a high end model but it does an admirable job cutting the thick scotch broom along side the railroad track berms Weighs around 450 pounds.

Didn’t know sheer pins were that bad
I think it really depends on your soil. Mine is heavy clay, limestone & lots of rocks. Sheer pins do what they are supposed to do and break before you damage something. Clutches may cost a bit more and they do accomplish the same goal of not allowing something more expensive to break, but in the end (for me anyway), the extra cost is worth it. As I said in the initial post, those pins have a tendency of breaking at the most inopportune time (at least on my property).

Do I push the limit of my implements? Yeah, probably - what do you mean that PHD isn't supposed to use a 24" auger, it fits, doesn't it? 😄😉😁
