You will love it. A couple of things. Keep the chute down. When you go around objects closely, use the side opposite the chute. You can actually dig pretty deep into a tree or such with the blade if you get the chute side too close. Be REALLY careful on dewey or damp slopes, they can/will lose control if the wheels get onto a slippery surface. Go slow on slopes. You get a better cut as the blades get past true sharp if you go slower and anyways it is safer. When you pass a fixed object on the chute side, look away from it. Rocks and sticks get past the chute, hit a rock or tree and next is your face. It hurts. Best yet, wear goggles. Good luck, be careful, stay safe...it is a good thing. :)
