Using parts from an old broken lawn mower, we decided to do something very useful.
Brush Mower It is very necessary for high and varied green areas. It can cut grass, weeds and even small trees or branches.
We used a 14 Hp engine and a hydrostatic gearbox for the drive.
Blades bought at a farm store for an orchard mower.
Interesting way to sharpen the blade...

Maybe he wasn\t sure which way it would spin so he sharpened both leading and trailing edgesQuote:

Yes, many, actually most, rough terrain mowers have blades that swivel. However, if you closely the blades on this mower appear to be welded.

Some makes of the duel and tri deck mowers have 1 deck that turns in the opposite direction, if these blades were made to fit one of them would be the only thing that would make any sense as to why both sides are ground.one of my shredders has flat blades which could be flipped over but they were not double side ground so there would be no point in flipping them. you can't flip offset blades though.
