[QUOTE="BrokenBackJack, post: 223236, member: 642"] We ran Woods when on the farm. Mowed 7-9 acres with hundreds of trees. We ran diesel and had no problems. They make gas models too. Ours had the electric flip up deck which was nice as the early ones were manual raised and lowered. Like everything else keep them serviced! Blow out the air filter after every mowing and clean the bottom of the deck. We also sharpened our blades and power washed it after every mowing. Don't wash until it has cooled down or your spindle bearings won't last long. Then give it a shot or two of grease and you are good to go. When we traded the one we were trading in it was already sold by the dealer to a customer as people knew who owned it. We kept 3 extra sets of blades. One new set and the other two we would switch after each mowing so didn't have to sharpen the one set right away and could sharpen it between mowings. Overkill i know but could afford it. Keep the oil changed regularly is key to the motor lasting a long time. Also water cooled will last much longer too. [/QUOTE]
