[QUOTE="steveR, post: 7797804, member: 66976"] I remember using one of these 45 years ago and it was a PITA, belts always coming off or slipping. I have a modern version of one of these though, a McConnel Swingtrim, bought to get into places where a big flail is inappropriate, or just can't get in. Hydraulic drive off the spools, so needs a GOOD flow rate, Some machines have a separate PTO pump and tank. Works OK up to about 15-20mm cuttings, which is fine for annual growth. On lawn areas we/I collect by hand, then run over with a ride on mower. On field areas, I run over with a flail mower :) [/QUOTE]
