That brush cutter is made by Branco with the Deere name on it. I also have this same exact machine and the one thing that is going to happen to yours is a hydraulic filter restriction light is going to come on and derate the machine, it’s a big problem with Deere. I’ve been fighting with the dealer for two months now and it still isn’t fixed, even after a $9000 wiring harness, filters, software updates, sensors, you name it. The engineers haven’t figured out how to fix it yet. So good luck, I like the machine, but we are all stuck with this hydraulic issue until they figure it out

Looks like a nice machine! Congrats. I think it looks fun, but don't predict one in my future. With a full-time job, I don't think I'd ever have enough time to do side jobs (like you mentioned in your previous video) for the machine to pay for itself. So for me, it would just be a HUGE investment for personal use.

Great choice!! You will do very well with it. Two comments. #1). Get a 60” loftness battleaxe forestry mulcher. That implement will really generate revenue at +/- $400/hr. #2). Don’t let the tracks fool you…. YOU WILL GET STUCK! The ground clearance is super low on these machines. The rubber tracks do not perform anywhere near what steel tracks do!!! Enjoy making income$$$. With this machine. I run a Kubota 75 SVL with a Loftness 60” battle axe. I’ve learned that when running it…… slow is fast with work production. 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥

Nice setup, I think you will really like that power rake, you can use it for gravel driveway work as well (I'm sure you already know that though). I'm going to guess that since you have a long gravel driveway that you maintain and are planning on doing that type of work more, the "delayed" attachment is a vibratory roller, which would be a game changer for compacting gravel driveways and pad areas (like in your Quonset hut). I know others may say a mulching head since you got a "high flow" machine, but you could buy a mini excavator (or just about) for the cost of one of those heads, so I'm guessing that might come later 😁. Question, can you see the front of the bucket (not just the teeth) when you are sitting normally in that machine? This machine will really speed up moving material around for you, enjoy!!

That looks like quite the learning curve, coming from a tractor. I am curious to see the impact it has on the gravel driveway and grass.

Good luck and looking forward to seeing your progress and productiveness with this awesome machine.

Time will tell. There may come a day when I wish I had bought a machine with a rollup door but you are dramatically oversimplifying the decision making process of buying a machine The point I’m making about the biggest sellers being standard doors, is that most of those machines are not bought by people buying their first machine. They’re bought by excavating companies that know exactly what they want. If everybody wanted that option every company would follow the market Buying a $80,000 machine there’s a lot more to think about than just the door. When you go buy that truck that you were comparing, is the first question you ask who has the best door? I considered the best door option to be JCB but I know a guy personally who has a 20 employee excavating business and he bought a JCB and he doesn’t like grading with it I’ve talked to guys who have been running them their whole lives and said they’ve never been in a situation where they were stuck in a machine and couldn’t get the door open. If that did happen you just pop the door off. The other million times that you open that door and you’re not stuck, the rollup doors are ergonomically less convenient to get in and out of

Not sure if you live in cattle country like I do, but could make money mowing farmers fence lines. I just bought a quarter section and the fence was buried in trees so they re fenced 5 feet in again. Seems like all the cattle guys around here just let their fences grow in, I don't understand it.... makes maintaining a fence way harder.
