As I said in an earlier post, People here with yards close or fairly close to the road mow with lawn mowers all the way to the pavement. They don't blow grass clippings off the pavement, just let passing cars blow the road clean. The state mowing crews do the same thing, the clippings are left in the road, along with trash that was kicked up from the shoulder of the road. I'm sure there has been plenty of flat tires because of that practice. When they used flail mowers or sickle bar mowers the cut grass and trash fell behind the mower instead of on the road. The earliest state mowing on the shoulder of the road was by a stripped down old dump truck pulling a #9 IHC horse drawn type mower with rubber tires. Later they put a tractor type cutterbar on the frame of the truck, operated off the transmission pto. Saved the salary of the man on the mower. Don't know about hydraulics.
