If you live in the snow belt, you’ll love our single-stage 30 inch wide snow thrower attachment. A huge amount of horsepower provides the snow thrower with plenty of force to blast through snow 2 feet deep. A high-profile discharge chute is controlled from the operator’s position and throws snow as much as 30 feet away. Direct the discharge chute up to 230 degrees, and blow that snow right where you want it. Rullo: “Actually I’ve probably used the snow blower attachment more than I have the mower attachment. I have my driveway here and it gets drifted up to 2 and 3 feet at a time and I’ve always gotten through. It’s just a dream. It works perfect.”

You can choose models with either a 26″ or a 30″ wide cut for fast, easy mowing of large areas. And the mowing deck pivots up to 15 degrees on either side following the contours of the terrain to prevent scalping. These models also have an exclusive locking differential—which gives the Field and Brush Mower excellent traction and straight tracking in rough terrain. Unlock it, and the wheels turn independently for easy turning. Our ATV-style tires are a full 18 inches in diameter by 6-1/2″ wide, and they provide terrific “bite”, even in wet and boggy areas. Plus, they’re self-sealing in case of minor punctures from thorns or sharp sticks and the wheels attach with tractor-style lug nuts. All mowers have electric starting engines with 4 forward speeds that let you mow at a brisk walk, or slow you down in the really thick stuff. And power reverse lets you back out of those tight spots. To start (and stop) the blades quickly and easily, we use a heavy duty electric clutch. To engage the clutch, pull the Blade Control Knob and the blades will spin. There are no cables or pulleys to stretch or adjust. The wheel drive lever transfers power to the wheels. If you let go, the machine will stop. As an added safety feature, releasing the operator presence control when the blade is engaged will stop the engine. There are two control panel options you might find handy. The first is an hour meter that tells you how many hours the machine has run, RPMs and when to perform scheduled …

It’s along the river, heavy brush, saplings, there’s some poison sumac. At first I didn’t know what to do and I actually looked at some tractors but between the y’know 3 to 5 grand for the brush hog and the 12 to 20 for the tractor it didn’t seem very economically feasible just to clear up some brush. And whenever I searched on the internet, DR always came up. It’s designed with a very specific purpose and it does that very well. It cuts down brush and lightly wooded things, you pretty much point it and go. I think the DR does stand for quality. A lot of the components they’ve used, all the ones that are certainly visible, if you looked at the clutch on the axle, is very substantial. And the size of the axle shafts themselves, I’m never going to bend those, they’re actually overbuilt for the machine. And the gauge of the steel from the housing unit, all the way to the cutter itself, is heavy enough that I don’t feel like I’m ever going to have an issue with it. It does what it’s supposed to do much better than I ever would have envisioned it It’s actually fun to use and that may sound a little odd but I enjoy using it when I cut down the brush because it works so well and makes light work of what would be virtually impossible to do otherwise.”

I try to be careful with my money because it’s not easy to make and I did quite a bit of shopping around locally because I like to support local businesses but I couldn’t find anything that could come close to what the DR could do. After debating for quite a while, I decided to spend the money and I can tell you now that it’s money well spent.

Learn more about DR Power Equipment Field and Brush Mowers at www.drpower.com Carol: I have nothing to lose if I buy this product. If I buy this product and I take it out here and it doesn’t perform like I would like I would like it to perform, I can send it back, no questions asked. To me that tells me a lot about the Company. That the Company’s willing to stand by this product, and its telling me that I will be happy with this product. My husband and I both love to fly fish and when you’re spending all you time trimming weeds with a hand held weed whacker and shears you don’t have time to go fishing. So since we have the DR it only takes about 2 hours to clear everything up, make the property look decent, under control cause you have to keep it under control. And then that allows us to go out fishing together, actually have a lot more fun together, so we never have to fight about what are we going to do today. We can actually manage to clear the land and go fishing.

Learn more about DR Power Equipment Field and Brush Mowers at www.drpower.com Connie: Our dream for our 34 acres here in Port Angeles was to have an alpaca farm as kind of a hobby. But, to take the raw acreage here and clear it so that it looked like a park and we could sit back and enjoy it most of the year. Using the DR Field and Brush Mower has just helped us get into all of those areas that we couldn’t reach with other things and it does it so quickly. We have an area along our driveway that is beautiful when it’s cleared out, but it’s soggy most of the year. There’s some natural flow-through there. With the DR , we’re able to get around all those trees and it goes right through the soft areas. It has not gotten stuck once. The balance on it, I’m very impressed with the balance. I’m only 5′ tall but this DR is very easy for me to maneuver, to turn around, to go up and down slopes, to back up. It does everything very well.

It cuts down brush and lightly wooded things, you pretty much point it and go. Rullo: As soon as I took it out of the crate you could see it was well made, it was tight, it was solid and it sold me on it before I even used it. But then when I did get it out, it just amazed me. It tore through everything I had out there. Terry: It works so well and the fact that it will eat through anything and the fact that it will do so on uneven terrain, on very steep hills. It has never failed to start in any kind of weather, wet, cold. We call it the beast. Skiff: I think not only is it a time saver but to me it’s a mind saver too because I know I have a dependable machine that I can take out and I can go to where ever it is that I have some mowing to do and know that I can do it quickly, easily and do it very professionally. Terry: Everybody that I’ve spoken to on the phone, everyone that I’ve met in the store speaks very highly for a company that’s clearly very well run, where engineering matters, where quality matters, and where they don’t cut corners and it’s those corners they don’t cut that allow us to have a piece of equipment that will give us a lifetime of service. This company stands behind everything they make, 100%. My satisfaction is guaranteed, I know that and I am satisfied.

Learn more about DR Power Equipment Field and Brush Mowers at www.drpower.com Once our engineers designed and built the DR, we turned it over to Mike Moriarty for testing. All DR products undergo hundreds of hours of rigorous testing before they are considered worthy of the DR brand. Mike, how did the tow behind mower perform? Tom, as you know we have high standards for quality at DR. We’ve been the industry leader in walk behind brush mowers for years. When we set out to develop the tow behind, it had to meet those same standards. We came all the way to Hawaii to find the toughest testing conditions possible. We put hundreds of hours on it cutting all kinds of material including thick, 8 foot tall Hawaiian Cane grass and I have to tell you that it did just an amazing job. The locals were impressed as well. Typically these grasses are cut with 70HP PTO driven brush mowers. I’ve been so impressed with the performance of this mower in these tough conditions. It’s got the DR pedigree for quality. That sounds great Mike. Thanks. As you can see the tow-behind DR Field and Brush mower is a well designed, well built and thoroughly tested machine. It does what it’s supposed to do and it does it right!

Learn more about DR Power Equipment Field and Brush Mowers at www.drpower.com A machine like this has got to be tough, and you can bet the DR is built right. For example, in situations where you can’t always see what you’re mowing … the DR has these shock absorbing PRO-TEK Swinging blades that deflect if you hit a rock or some other fixed object. This protects the spindle, engine, and blade itself from serious damage. Our exclusive blade spindle has a classic DR pedigree – a 1-3/8″ solid steel shaft mounted on 30mm ball bearings — intended for the extra heavy duty work you’ll find yourself doing. The 1 1/4″ diameter Brush Bar knocks down vegetation allowing the blades to easily cut thick, waist-high grass and weeds. It even mows down hardwood saplings up 2″ thick. The mowing deck is made of welded steel- a full one eighth inch thick. It will stand up to most anything and do it for years. Sealant filled tires permanently reseal punctures that a rock or stick could cause…and the wheels are shielded to protect both the mower deck and objects encountered while mowing. Tom: DR is very well engineered. It’s very well thought out and the DR equipment just is really very user friendly, When it comes to engine choices, we use only the most trusted names in outdoor power equipment. And whether you choose a single cylinder engine or our v-twin powerhouse, both have overhead valves…full-pressure lubrication…spin-on oil filters, and are electric-starting.
