Looks to me to be a very well designed machine, I would love to have a test/trial drive. I'm sure it performs well in and amongst the German vineyards.
All the engineering went into this with lawn mower but they decided for no suspension I've seen that's being used and the guy that was riding it was bouncing all over the place it looks very uncomfortable to use worse that a Craftsman lawn mower. I mean how hard could it be to add some suspension at least some bushings. And no I'm not saying it's not an awesome machine but they forgot some things.
ive got one that ive beat the shit out of. 900 hours 3 years old the frame cracked in 7 places. we beefed the frame up and its still running. but they just sold the company and the parts are becoming harder to get. the front end is leaking a little oil and they are saying we need to buy a whole front end instead of gettin new gaskets. so theres that.all the parts used to come out of seattle and it took about 2 weeks. all in all its a great machine.im using it on an expressway in the bay area.people dump concrete ,trash and different debris so its got alot of abuse. not what it was designed to mow. we are buying another one. once we gwt the parts problem setteled
@@1949b so if they would have designed some suspension the frame when the crack. The shit that I was done with a 21 horsepower Craftsman shouldn't have been possible. I recently purchased some land and put a trailer on it the company that deliver the trailer left all the cinder blocks that they brought about 400 pounds worth of cinder blocks I have no trailer but I had a sheet of plywood and the tow rope I put all those cinder blocks on that piece of plywood and then drag does cinder blocks with my lawn mower the front end left the ground but nothing broke. And it has a jerry-rigged head gasket. I have no idea how many hours is all night engine but I know it's 5 to 6 years old.
Unless you have a landscaping business I don't recommend it. There are videos of people using this and it looks very uncomfortable to ride. I recently purchased some land the people have used to do donuts in and I have a Craftsman 21 horse and I don't bounce around that much it's a very stiff frame which is a good and bad thing.
Machines do not perform on looks So how come you are So sure ? mate you are So wrong! I have run one for four years scrubcutting on sidlings too steep for our tractors it cuts 3"x15 foot wattle and gum - bamboo as well as 6 foot Amazon grass with kikuyu all through it and worn out one set of blades so get back under your rock! Looks indeed
