I read the article on Choosing,Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower by Mr Francis Robinson.This article discusses the dangers of a bush hog to a beginner.Before I read this article,I wanted a mower for all the wrong reasons.I have a wooded area,uneven ground;full of holes,stumps and rocks.This type of terrain would require a lot of stop and go situations.When I talk to sales people,or people selling their mowers,they never mention the dangers of using a mower. Please read this article before you buy a mower,thanks Mr Robinson! Noble
 
I think the safety protocol for these rotary cutters, tractors, equipment, implements, areas of operation, and many other aspects are paramount to ones well being, especially if you are a new operator just getting started, you need to know the terrain, conditions and equipment you are using inherently, a seat with a belt and R.O.P.S. may have prevented this, mainly a seat with a belt, though the operator still has to use the belt for it to be of any good, it can happen quickly, the results of which can be gruesome, this fatality happend just over the hill side from our place.

This is a very common occurance. I have heard about this type of accident since 1960.
