I have a Farmall H, equipped with a Woods 5ft. belly mower. I have been using this rig for about 5 years now on land that was once pasture. No, I do not have any rocks to contend with, but I do have sidewalks that the mower will sometimes scrape across, and doing that will dull the blades, but not enough to stop me from finishing the job, no different than any other mowing machine, the blades on this mower are mounted with friction discs, which will allow the blade some protection if it hits something solid. The only problem I have encountered with the belt is when it comes off, because I failed to keep the tension correct, it is rather tricky to get it threaded back through correctly, but once it is installed, and given the proper tension, no problems. An outfit like this made a whole lot more sense than an over priced riding lawn mower that would be totally worn out in 5 years, not to mention a whole lot less money. I really enjoy my outfit!
