It has been years since I had to run a bush hog.. Back in the 60's at my uncles place.. Never had to sharpen the blade but I did do some mechanic and hydraulic work on it.. Great little toys the brush hogs.. if only we got flat even ground to run them on eh? Thanks Joe..
Thank you very much for your very interesting comment. I appreciate that. This Bushhog is a real monster and it’s very useful. I just raised it up a bit to get it off the ground a little more so maybe I won’t hit as many rocks and I won’t have to re-create my blades again. Consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
sorry-i did not notice the anatomy. what kept the bolt from rotating (so you did not need to hold it in place while tightening the nut?) i should just look for a parts diagram for the Bush/Brush Hog.
You ask an excellent question. The bolt has an extrusion that fits in a notch preventing it from turning. That's why you can tighten the knot without having to put any kind of a wrench and that bolt. consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe
Hard face rod may help them last longer. I've used on big machine buckets anger bit teeth. Blades like yours.don't know if they have it for you tho. Ask your welding dealer. They know hard facing rods.
Thank you very much for your comment. You make a great point. Actually we got these rods from a friend and I’m not sure specifically what they are, but they’re very very hard and they’re specifically for lawnmower blades and I’m hoping for bush hog blades we’re gonna run the bush hog now with these new Repaired and sharpen blades and I’ll do an update on how they do. Thanks again consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe.
