If you want the ability to knock out 2-1/2" thick saplings, plus the toughest grass and weeds, this machine is for you. Go anywhere with 4 forward speeds (1 reverse) and lockable differential. 26" cut.
 

How does the mower avoid hidden rocks and stumps and what happens if you hit one?

What happens if you hit a hidden stump or rock?
The Self Propelled, Walk Behind Field and Brush Mower has a pivoting mower deck that automatically follows the contour of the ground and has a fixed 4 inch cutting height.

Hitting a rock or stump can potentially damage the blade or blade spindle, so it's best to avoid rocky situations whenever possible. However, the DR is equipped with a belt-drive system that allows the belt to slip if it strikes a rock or immovable object, reducing the possibility of damage to the blade spindle and protecting the engine.

For areas that may have numerous stumps and rocks, there is an optional attachment called the Bladeless Mowing Attachment. It is used for mowing lighter grass and weed covered areas on your property where you wouldn't want to take any steel bladed mower. It uses extra heavy duty nylon cutting cord.

The Bladeless Mowing Attachment can be viewed at the following web link:

The ultimate DR for clearing large areas! Mow up to 2 acres per hour. Take down 2" thick saplings and the toughest grass and weeds. Tow with ATV/UTV or tractor. 44" cut.
 

Cutting pasture grass

I understand that this be3ast will reclaim my fallow pastures, but how well does it cut regular pasture and lawn grass?
The 20 HP Tow-Behind Field and Brush Mower can be used on country properties of all sizes. It's ideal for clearing meadows and wide open areas with grass up to 6 ft tall, weeds and brush up to 8 ft high and saplings up to 2" thick.

With a pressurized oil delivery with a spin on filter, it can mow well on slopes up to 15 to 20 degrees as long as your tow vehicle is on the same slope as you are mowing.

The mower offers a foot-activated cutting height system that can be set at 4", 5", 6-14" or 7-1/2". You can choose the height that best fits your mowing conditions. If the blades are kept sharp, you can mow your yard with the mower, however, it will not leave a manicured cut as a finish mower will leave.

The mower is equipped with Pro-Tek swinging blades that pivot when they happen to hit an immovable object. This absorbs any shock without transferring the force to the rest of the machine.

If you have more questions or would like to place an order by phone, please call TOLL FREE 1-800-376-9637 and our Sales Representatives will be happy to help you.

Thicker and heavier than the Multi-Purpose brush blade that is shipped standard on all DR Field and Brush Mowers. Extra weight and mass creates greater momentum as the blade spins, which makes it easier and faster to cut tough, woody material.
 

Is it possible to get decals for an old Bachtold model mower?

Also, can you give an idea of year model by the S/N? I plan to restore this beast, and want to do it right. Thank you!
We do not carry any decals for the old Bachtold Field and Brush Mowers. You can contact Bachtold Brothers at the following email address:

bachtold@midwestgibson.com

or their Customer Service Department at 1-217-784-5161.

The serial number may identify the year the mower was manufactured. Bachtold Brothers should be able to help you with this also. Thank you.

The DR 22" Self-Propelled Mower is packed with professional-grade features for a professional-grade cut, season after season after season. The cast aluminum deck is so durable that it's backed by a lifetime warranty. It may just be the last walk-behind mower you ever buy!
 

Does the blade have clutch

Can you stop the blade while the engine is running? We have a rather thick lawn, Will it have enough power to handle it
The DR 22" Self Propelled Lawn Mower does not feature a blade brake clutch. Unless you have a debris crowded yard, it is not always advantageous to have this system. As with any clutch system, the complexity of the mower can become an issue as well as an increase in maintenance costs.

The mower offers 9 height adjustment positions, from 1" up to 3.4", and the self propelled mechanism offers a variable speed that adjusts by feathering the bail bar. This allows you to choose the speed that best fits your pace and mowing conditions.

If you have more questions or would like to place an order by phone, please call TOLL FREE 1-888-550-0062 and our Sales Representatives will be happy to help you.

Thank you for your interest in the reconditioned 22" Self Propelled Lawn Mower.

can my Yanmar YM1510 D @15hp. power the 3pt.hitch string trimmer?

will a tree guard protect the mature grapevines?
Tractor Requirements are:

Must be category 1 Hitch, 540 RPM PTO
Maximum HP of 45 - NO minimum HP is required
Maximum wheelbase of 80" to outside of tires
PTO shaft, Class 1 Type 20, 6 Spline quick-release

Our most affordable Trimmer Mower, the PREMIER is a tremendous value. Lightweight and easy to maneuver, it will outperform any handheld trimmer. The 6.50 Kohler OHV engine with cast iron sleeve has plenty of power for all trimming and lighter mowing tasks.
 

Do the refurbished Trimmer Mowers come with extra rolls of string? Do reburished have same warranty as new units?

As with our new models, you receive 6 sections of the green cord (155 mil) and 6 sections of the blue cord (175 mil) with a reconditioned Trimmer Mower.

You have the option to purchase extra cord either in a pre-cut package of 24 or in economical rolls. Our long-wearing cord can be viewed and/or ordered at the following web link:

http://www.drpower.com/prdSell.aspx...

Reconditioned DR machines come with our standard two-year warranty and our 6 Month Trial Period. Reconditioned machines are available on a first come, first serve basis, so we generally recommend calling directly to speak with a Sales Representative to check on the availability of a particular model. Also, we are unable to offer reservations orders or waiting lists for reconditioned machines.

Please call our Sales Team at toll free 1-888-550-0062 and a Sales Representative will be happy to help you. Their summer business hours are Monday thru Friday, 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, Saturday, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, and Sunday, 9:00 am to 5:30 pm, Eastern Time. Thank you.
