i do commercial bush hogging with a small JD870 and a 5 ft. cutter. i always run the p.to. at recommended rpm (2600). it cuts better that way. also backing into brush is bad business because the cutter throws the debris toward you. be sure to wear protective gear(heavy pants and long sleeve shirt and hard helmet and eye protection). use common sense. if the brush looks too big, then it probably is. a chainsaw is better on the big stuff and you can cut lower to the ground so you won't have tire trouble on your next cutting. a rule i use is: if my front wheels can push over the brush you want to cut, then the cutter should handle it. if you cannot eaisly push it over then i would go with the chainsaw first. lol
