I have used several, over the years--and the place I used to work, P/T, rented the things out...
.Boy--you would not even believe what the average homeowner is capable of......:banghead3:banghead3
O.K.--Usually come in two sizes (widths)...
Do you have obsi\ticles in your yard? Trees/fences/.planters? Then you want the smaller one////If you have 1 acre or more wide open--rent the larger sized one..
As you make a turn to make another pass, it's goning to tear the ground up some--wetter the ground, more tear up happens. One trick is, to get to the end of the track, push down on the bar--raising the tines up some-making it easier to shift. Or you can drop the transport wheels back down each turn and avoid that--just takes longer--but you get used to it.
Honda engines are much quieter, and use less fuel. Make sure it's full when you rent it, and return it full. Ask questions at the place--make sure you understand about the safety handle/ etc. Take the slide oout weight in the back out to lift/transport. If you don't have a drive one ramp/trailer--you need someoine to help load/unload. "Ryan" is the prodominant brand around here0--
good luckl...
