How does a 7510 do with a 5' brush hog? I keep going back and forth between buying a 7800 and a 7510. I will have horses on roughly 5 acres and want to be able to brush hog fencelines, the occasional paddock, and a steep but small hill (maybe 1/2 acre total). Everything has been cut once or twice a year for the past 10 years, so it is mostly grass and small stuff. Any feedback would be appreciated.

The 7510 will handle a 5 foot mower but a 5 foot bush cutter is one notch too big. The 5 foot brush hog would be just right for the 7800. ....

Ok, lets say you get the B7800 and then oopps an accident with the 60". The manual for the B2910 recommends a 48" rotary (bush hog). If one damages the tractor with a 60" your warranty is void. Don't just listen to the dealers they will tell you it can move mountains..take the info with a grain of salt. Get a manual for the tractor you are interested in and see what is recommended. ....

I have a 48" landpride on my B7500. It handles it just fine, don't try to do to much 1", it will bog down. But tall grass is not a problem. A 60" is to big. The manual says only to have a maxium of a 42" rotary cutter. I got one of each, a 48" and a 42". The 42" is for sale. see classifieds. ....
