36 inch ferris hydrocut mower - Homesteading Questions

Does anybody know if this mower can handle thick, tall weeds and small brush (mesquite mostly, under 2 inches thick stems). Thanks

Just because a mower looks like a DR brushmower doesn't mean it will cut brush like a DR brushmower (or a Billy Goat brand brushmower).

A walk behind brushmower should have only one blade, an open deck (in front) and a front-mounted bar that will push the brush/saplings down so they go beneath the mower deck.

See the difference:

Thanks. That is kinda what I thought. Guess I'll keep looking. (That was sure a good price on it though. LOL)
