The reels were powered by a separate hydraulic system with a PTO mounted pump and 30 gallons of hydraulic oil in tanks mounted behind the seat/between the fenders. One of our genius turf grass students was out mowing and he notices the reels stopped. Seems about a 1/4 mile earlier he hit a tree and broke off a reel, dragged it for a while but eventually the hydraulic hose broke, the reels stopped after he pumped 30 gallons of hydraulic oil out on the course. The boss wasn't real happy what wasn't dug up by the reel being dragged was oily and yes hot hydraulic oil kills grass, we had a dead streak of grass most of the rest of the season.
