Vertical Hydraulic Brush Mower Build... DANGER! STAND BACK! (Skid Steer Brush Hog)

- Vertical Hydraulic Brush Mower. In this video we build a Vertical Hydraulic Brush Mower to maintain the trails at Edward's Creek Ranch. We often need a fast efficient way to cut back the overgrowth along over 7 miles of trails. We take a standard 5 foot brush hog, put it on its side, slap on a hydraulic motor, and let it eat. Is this even Legal?
Equipment Utilized:
Bobcat T595
Bobcat E42
Lincoln wire feed welder
Hydraulic Supplies:
Supplier - Surplus Center
Hydraulic Ag Motor with PTO Output - 7.63 cu in
One Way Valve - 1/2" NPT 18 GPM 65 PSI Check Valve
Miscellaneous hoses and fittings in 1/2" NPT
Carrier - Miscellaneous steel pipe and angle iron

Great idea! Far more durable than anything that’s on the market and it seems much more efficient!
That was great well done bravo from Victoria Australia
Thank you
This is what you get when you take the "NEVER DO THIS" list out of the safety manual, and then you build a machine to DO all the things on the list. Never mow with the deck raised. Check! Never mow what you can't see. Check! Never defy gravity. Check! Never over-speed the mower. Oh heck yeah! Awesome. Love it.
Lol... Safety Third! You win #1 comment of the day!
Looks like something that should be taking out walkers' in the walking dead.
Looks similar to a lane shark but a lot beefier and a fraction of the cost! Great job
Very true! Thanks,
Our County Road Crew uses similar commercial built vertical mower. It does make fast work at clearing overhanging limbs.
The problem is this type vertical mowers leave a nasty mess of "beat to hell" stubble that is an eyesore for months after the cut.
County went by here 3 weeks ago... ugh!
This is what you call adapt and over come the easy way. I think its a brilliant idea.
And it works! Ty
Suggest cover the side where those blades are when not in use.
Florida DoT as well as my local township use machines with basically this same kind of mower on an articulated boom that lets them do the same thing. The township uses a really wild machine that almost looks like an insect. Just wanted you to know that you're approach isn't too crazy. Great job on the fabrication and using it to clear the trails!
Thanks!
Great job, right tool for every job
Thanks for noticing James...
Andrew Camarata will sue you for being a copy cat, but he will forgive you when i see your idea that is much better then his for removing the branches on the side of the trail :D
I could only hope Andrew even sees this. Plus if he sues perhaps I get to meet him...lol Tx for the compliment.
what you have never seen a sickle bar mower and it is made to do it , lot of work and money for nothing ,have a good day,the smart guy from queensland australia
This is cheaper and faster than any sickle.
Anyone can build it but doubt you can legally sell it. I still want one!!! Great Video
lol.... I wanted one too... ur turn to build one.
I like it and would want 1 too.
Can anyone say "Andrew Camarata"? lol, very nicely done!
Lol... He inspires many. Thanks!
Pretty Awesome!
Thanks!
@@edwardscreekranch did you notice the "moak tree" reference in his username
Lol... pretty sneaky
That is by far the most dangerous thing you've built yet that's awesome
Ty dymeboy
How about the tall multi sawblade contraption they use with helicopters to clear powerlines?
Just need the helicopter 1st... hmmm
Hydro power from your waterfall next?
Great minds think alike. That is in the long term plans.
Remember the movie Fargo?
What hydraulic motor did you use and where did you get it?
The motor came from Surplus Center (surpluscenter.com). I used the 7.63 cu in PTO Motor item #9-7368-125 $400.00. Shipped to me within 4 days. Our skid steer flows at 17gpm. Working just fine so far.
crazy music
genius
Im flattered... ty
It's OK but should have bought a Laneshark it works alot better..
Do you sleep? Or lay awake at night solving these problems?😊
I dream my way through these issues
Dance man!
Ive got rhythm!
'Promo sm'
Cut the music, I find it irritating. Rather hear the shop noise.
I can see a lot of potential in that thing,potential for harm 😬
On something like that you just have to be careful and really watch what your doing. Have a great day be safe
Hence Stand Back!
