Vic,
like the guys said be careful with the wheelie especially if running wide open. Remember for a Bush Hog many recommend 10hp per foot of bush hog. 50hp for a 5 foot 60hp for a 6 foot etc. I hog with a WD and a Brush Hog Brand wheeled Hog. The blades wouldn't cut hot butter when not spinning but at 540rpm cut everything. Most of the cutting is done in second gear unless heavy then 1st is used. The hand is always ready to push forward (disengage) the hand clutch and then pull back very slowly to start the tractor moving again. The PTO should not stop. One reply said you could shift with the hand clutch in. In the 35 years I've been running the WD I've never purposely tried this but I don't think I can change gears with it in.
