For some reason this is very satisfying to watch. I am renting pretty much the same set up to clear up a hill in my backyard and like to learn some before going at it. On this job it must be real concerning having both a road and walkway so close to where you are cutting. That girl that walked by was definitely in the danger zone.
You definitely have to be careful for sure. If I'm next to a road like this I'll typically turn off the high flow. This makes the blades spin slower and not throw stuff as bad.
Nice..Watching this while I drink my coffee and eat breakfast. There seems to be a lot of "arm chair" specialists on UA-cam these days, so take some of the comments with a grain of salt lol. Keep the videos coming.
That John Deere cutter dose fantastic job, chopping that brush and weeds down. Nothing Runs like a Deere, I personally owned a John Deere 310A it was fantastic h ok e, I put over 10,000 hour on it digging water mains and sewer line. When I work heavy Construction I ran a John Deere 500c it was a digging machine, never had issue with brake downs, ran that several years.
Thanks for watching and commenting Donald! I like my Deere, had a few minor issues but overall it has been a great machine and I will likely upgrade to a 333G at some point in the future.
I mulch banks all day long. I will trade you some mountains for some flat ground lolol. Always a satisfying job. Snakes tend to dislike you when you disturb there house but yellow jackets 🐝 will love you
I wish we could've watched you cut the whole thing. If you run the cutter in the water, call it a free underside washing. I bet for big brush cutting jobs like this that you had one of those bat wing brush hogs.
I'll put my light hearted arm chair general in here... I dip my weed eater head into water when I'm done with the job and it cleans it up a bit, I bet it scales up well with a brush cutter.... Great videos.
As you hit the areas that have a lot of debris/dirt/stuff pop up, it would be great 👍 to have a little commentary as we watch what you hit. Or, why you leave certain parts of the lot uncut. To us it all looks like weeds or scrub brush that should be chopped down. Such as around 21:30, you left other patches unmowed that looked like that, but took that one down. At least it seemed like it. Just a suggestion.
Thanks for the suggestion! At 21:30 there is a stump hidden in those bushes so I can really cut it all the way down, just have to cut around and on top of it.
I know this video was from awhile back but I just now watched it and would like to know what was on the ground at 11:13 to your left?? It looks like a coiled up snake. Hope it was just some old garbage bag or something. Was just curious. Great video.
Rabbits and tons of field mice. Snakes too. On this job I actually saw a hawk swoop down and snatch a field mouse as it ran away from my cutter LOL. Not the first time I've seen that happen either when mowing.
Could but I don't know how really that would work to get them mounted. Damage to the blades is inevitable and they're not that expensive to replace, especially compared to teeth on a mulcher.
Most skid steers won’t free float or that would be a great idea. Even thought of that myself. Ur either in it or ur out of it. Kind like a bad barber 💈
He even got into what he used and the cost of materials. Looks like a pretty cost effective upgrade. There would be less scalping but the wheels would likely get tangled with branches and vines. m.ua-cam.com/video/Qe3v5lBPjrQ/v-deo.html
Ballpark, how many acres, how many hours mowing ? Used to do a lot of mowing with a Ford 8N and a brush hog in the back. Tall brush around trees and such I'd have to back in and out. Would have liked a machine like you have, it does a nice job. Enjoyed your videos. Thanks. Jack
I think that mower needs some wheels on the front of it so it can only go down so far, instead of putting it in a strain cutting the dirt! Just my opinion, I don’t think you would have to back up as much!
I always watch these and think “that’s not the way I’d do it”, having zero seat time on a track loader with a brush cutter. I’m thinking why wouldn’t you just long run side hill on that hill halfway through the video rather than run your blades in the dirt so many times. I’m sure there is a good reason since everyone seems to do it the way you did.
When every owner worldwide of an unused property like this would let mother nature do her thing and not mow so trees can grow, the 'climate crisis' would be over soon.
I have watched this video at least three or four times and it’s relaxing every time I watch it. Please keep these type of videos coming.
Thank you
Believe it or not, we dont all need music to listen to. I enjoy hearing the mower !
That mower is one heck of a machine! It is amazing how it cuts through that heavy brush. Good job!
Yeah that thing surprises me all the time with what it can do.

Awesome set up... Great work.. And as an added bonus... You straightened that sign up pretty nice too!! Great job man

You went beastmode with that area

Well said!
Magnificent job & what a fun machine. Amazing that you know where all the obstacles & foreign objects may be lying in all that brush.💯👍🏾👏🏾👍🏾🇺🇸
Sometimes I do, sometimes stuff catches me by surprise LOL
The angle at beginning is my 2nd favorite. If you can safely point your camera from inside the cab to the “eating area “ that would be super cool!!!
Very satisfying video to watch looks like cutting cabbage 🥬
Thanks for watching!
That looks like a lot of fun! you only have to watch out for utilities and rocks!
Pretty much.
That was a difficult job but hey if it was too easy everyone would be doing it , nicely done , most enjoyable .🇬🇧

Those chunks of concrete or rocks are good for your blade!! Nice work you do even with all the trees and and other things you have to put up with!!
This machine is fakin awesom. It saves you a lot of work.
Great video, thanks for sharing. Have a great day.
Thank you! You too!
I like the sound..
Good video as always my friend!
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Good work. Keep it up.
Thanks!

Yeah, ran into some yellowjackets on some jobs last year. They were fun...😐
Thank goodness for enclosed cabs, hopefully with A/C.
Nice job. Well done.
Thank you! Cheers!
This must be exciting work; you don’t know what is under/behind all that grass until you hit it.
Yeah it can be a bit exciting! Thank you for watching Morris!

that looks very good
Now this is heavy duty
For sure!
Good stuff
Glad you enjoyed!
I wonder how many snakes and etc do you chop up doing this 😂😂😂
On this job site how many times did you have fill up gas tank ? Thanks
None, used about half a tank of fuel for everything.
@@idigit4967 qq
@@idigit4967 how much is for a full tank? And how much is the gas for a gallon
I'll put my light hearted arm chair general in here... I dip my weed eater head into water when I'm done with the job and it cleans it up a bit, I bet it scales up well with a brush cutter.... Great videos.
Good idea with the weed eater!
New definition of steep for me but the thing worked for sure

Do you get a lot of onlookers when mowing overgrown areas like this? And thankyous upon completion?
Not too many onlookers really but I do get quite a few thank you's when its done.
You should see the mower that the guy on UpState Brush Control has! It’s one bad mower/ shredder!
Yeah he has a nice setup
ua-cam.com/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/v-deo.html
Good job! I thought I saw some rabbits get flushed out of some heavy brush at one point. Do you see much wildlife when you’re cutting like that?
Rabbits and tons of field mice. Snakes too. On this job I actually saw a hawk swoop down and snatch a field mouse as it ran away from my cutter LOL. Not the first time I've seen that happen either when mowing.
The hawks & etc they learn pretty quick to follow & let you be the bird dog
Just a thought, could you put wheels on the front corners of the bush hog to help stop some of the scalping and to save damage to the blades.
Could but I don't know how really that would work to get them mounted. Damage to the blades is inevitable and they're not that expensive to replace, especially compared to teeth on a mulcher.

@@idigit4967 There was a guy on YT who did it to his CID attachment and it cut his time down to a third of what it took to cut.
@@idigit4967 Go to Crazydoug66 YT channel and he has the video about it.

It's all good brah, I watch at 2x speed anyway...

Good evening from St John Parish, Louisiana 23 Sep 20.
Good evening!

Depends on what I am cutting. Bigger, denser foliage I can do 3/4 acre a day. Mowing light stuff like this I can do easily over 5 acres a day.
IDigIt4 Thanks for the reply.
Dammit I’m gonna be late for work! 👍🏼
Are all lots commercial or residential,? seems there is not much around them .
I think that mower needs some wheels on the front of it so it can only go down so far, instead of putting it in a strain cutting the dirt! Just my opinion, I don’t think you would have to back up as much!
I have a bradco and it has the steel rollers on the front. It doesnt work as good as you would think. The wheels just dig into the dirt just as bad.
I know some of them have those wheels like the brush cutters on a tractor
Nice! How much do these clean ups range in your price more or less? Good work amazing machine man. 👍🏼💯
Depends on what I'm cutting
Is the underside blades or chains? Just curious by the way it front discharges when you back up to clean a swath.. Thanks for the video
Its blades with some small carbide mulching teeth on the blade carrier
What was the problem to go through?
bon job .
I always watch these and think “that’s not the way I’d do it”, having zero seat time on a track loader with a brush cutter.

Hello Where is the place or city of the working this video ?
South Carolina
If I accidentally hit some rocks, will this damage the blade?
No
Depends, might dent or gouge them a bit but I haven't hit anything I couldn't resharpen with the angle grinder.
How often do you have to sharpen the blades?
Depends on what I'm cutting but maybe every 4-8 hours.
When i saw that white spray at around 10min, i thought you ran over a homeless person.
Some of the area's he mulches is prime hobo habitat.
@@buddy5335 no kidding!!
This is i Canada?
👍👍
lol, you can see the rabbits running!
I saw quite a few LOL
ua-cam.com/video/W6kd2FF9x4g/v-deo.html
I guess scalping it to dirt ensures you don’t have to come back for awhile
Lol
True
was that a rat or a rabbit that flew out about 19 mins in lol
Probably
LOL almost reminds you have NASCAR. Drivers start your engines LOL

Hitting dirt dulls the blades
😀👍👍🍁😰

What does something like this cost?
Only 100 rabbits were sliced in pieces doing this lot. :)
LOL
moving steep

You ever vaporize any squirrels or rabbits?
Not to my knowledge
Kinda looks like you ran across the homeless shopping network again.
Sorry to bother you but I saw the ok .
Really need a tractor and a brush hog
I have one, this is quicker. I've used both on this lot.
Dve
My back yard is worser that that slope IV had bobcats all-over it I'd take that machine all over that slope that's nothing.
When every owner worldwide of an unused property like this would let mother nature do her thing and not mow so trees can grow, the 'climate crisis' would be over soon.
I can hear better..
Whoever owns that place needs to get it drained off or he will never sell it.
I wonder if he has ever ran a baby rabbit or animal over with that thing.
Not to my knowledge luckily
Why bother watching it thn if not video
dude ....... get a tractor , lmfao
dude...... I have one, this is quicker and I get to sit in the A/C
