Glad to see that it will turn a 5 foot cutter with no problem. I have a 4 footer I’ll be using with my SA325.

I’ve read that the cutter requires 25 hp and the yanmar only has 18 hp at the pto. I’m in search of a brush hog now and have that same tractor.

I have about the same mower except the back of mine isn't rounded. The top link on mine is made different. When I turn on the PTO it is at idle and then I bring the throttle up to speed. On mine I had to put the lower pins on and when I did i didn't have the right socket to tighten it. I had one vibrate loose. So i bought a socket and used blue loctite with impact gun. I seen a video where the guy using it that bolt fell off and he then had a issue. I would think that you really don't have enough horsepower at the PTO, since all tractors loose horsepower from what the tractor has.

I really like your videos. I am also have a yanmar tractor sa-424 which is a 24hp engine. I need to get a brush hog and dealer told me to use a 4 ft brush hog. He said a 5 ft would be straining the engine? But your 5 ft seems to work

This may seem like a dumb question but we are learning (just got a new 39hp tractor) we couldn't afford the $3000 towards the tractor brand bush hog but we learned (after wed already made the purchase) that we couldn't put any ole bush hog on it, needs to have a slip clutch. We are looking hard at this bush hog but can't find any info about it, does it come with a slip clutch? Thanks for the video!
@97TRAKIN Жыл бұрын
You want a slip clutch or a shear pin/bolt setup. This brush hog uses a shear bolt.

@@MikeMatkin-of9iy It's hooked correctly 👍🏿, but thank you for your concern. You can check out the video where I put my cutter together to see how this one works. Not all use the same type of setup, so not all will "look" the same.
