The owner shows three-point/top-link setup for uneven ground, blade-swing and stump-jumper features, sharpening tips, and honest wear-and-tear (dented, stamped deck) after ~254 hours of use. Useful for buyers weighing a lighter-duty bush hog on a compact tractor and wanting real setup and operating detail.
An owner-operator on 6-D Outdoors sharing hands-on impressions from routine work on his own property.
Push the top link out enough to let the bush hog flex up and down, then control height with the three-point lever as the ground undulates.
It is a lighter duty bush hog with a stamped out deck, not fabricated, and has some bends, dings, and dents after use, but no major breakdowns.
The owner runs a 48-inch (four foot) bush hog on his B2301 and says you should not use a six or eight footer, that would be too much for it.
Reach underneath and make sure the blades are swung out both ways before cutting, otherwise they clank loudly and cut poorly.
