I am whipped, I just finished harvesting the hay er, mowing the lawn; all acre and a half or so. Luckily I have this:
EDIT: The hard part (for me, anyway) is getting the ambition to get on it and start. Once on and doing the job, it is sort of fun. Note that it is capable of about 10 MPH flat out on relatively level ground.
When I first got it, I could not resist staying in one place with one arm all the way to the front and one arm all the way to the rear. It will actually rotate about it center axis leaving a circular cut in the grass.
With the arms out as in the photo, the transmission is locked and it will not move; also one has to be seated to get it to move; It can be started with out being seated as for maintenance or idling. Two safety devices that are very easy to co-operate with.
Note that the brand is HUSTLER and the model RAPTOR LIMITED.
