My father-in-law and I swapped brush hogs, because my King Kutter was twice the weight of his AVCO, and I have a Super-A, and he has a 450.
Here's the deal. The KK has shear-pins rather than a clutch, and he keeps breaking them. 5 today, he said, while mowing a horse pasture that was just a formality in the mowing- there was nothing tough to pull it through. I never broke one when pulling it behind my SA, but then, I have to mow in 1st gear, and he tells me he mows his pasture in 3rd gear.
Is there anything inherent in mowing with his 450 in 3rd gear that would be hard on the shear-pins? He's getting pretty fried, and I don't want to have to swap them back.
