The KK5' hog is a good match for an N.. it is a light /light duty hog, and it doesn't tax the hyds much as it only weighs like 500# or less.

I havn't had a problem with mine yet.

I did find that it will cut thick weeds better than thick grass!

Works great, just finished trimmining up some CRP ground. Grass and weeds hood high. Couple of things though. Stuff wraps around the rear wheel axle and can actually bind tight enough the wheel won't turn . I keep an old hunting knife in the tool box to cut the stuff out and grease the axle and spindle often.

follows around like a puppy dog and eats up the scraps. Thick stuff low gear, moderate stuff 3rd gear, light stuff 4th gear.

Not sure about a KK, but I've got a 5' Howse that I pull around and it's like the dealer told me, "If you can run over it, the mower will handle it." I've put that to the test more than once and haven't had any problems yet...not so much as a shear pin bolt.
