    Some of the rocks won't fit in a bucket.

      Don't forget about DR's 6 month return policy if you're unsatisfied.

      If it doesn't work out just ship it back.

      DR Power Equipment manufactures and sells a full range of professional grade outdoor power equipment including brush mowers, leaf vacuums, chippers, lawn mowers, and more!

          I have the Cub Cadet version, it works great. Use it around rocky areas I don’t want to take my mower near.

          It works really well for clearing out my fence rows too.

            My neighbor who, uses one (Troy-Built) on his rocky place, came over and asked me to make him a shield so it wont throw rock/etc twds the house/windows. He really likes the walk-behind. He used to weed-eat it. Ugh.

            Here is what I came up with (removeable).

            I haven't gotten feed-back from him yet, been raining.

              DR trimmer for rocky ground

              For two years I have been considering one for my swamp. It’s too wet to mow but it’s also part of the yard. I didn’t consider the lease opportunities. I may be sold but I like the cub cadet price better.

                The higher end ones come with an aluminum cap, so my guess would be yes.

                  Ordered one today. Will do an update once it gets here and I try it out.

                    Update on the DR trimmer: It works great! Handles the rocky terrain very well and cut my time down considerably over the areas I was having to use a weedeater. It will sling a rock but not too bad. Just have to be careful around buildings. Only issue was it does not run out of gas as often as I would have liked so I could take a break.

                      That's good to know. My parents bought one at TSC.

                      It. Sucks.

                      I tried it at my place on limestone this weekend and I ran run through stuff faster with a echo weedeater. The DR just won't spin fast enough to cut the grass. It took 4 and 5 passes in thick stuff

                        I had a Husqvarna string mower for 10 years. Tore and beat the crap out of it. Replaced every part. It was a beast. The chasis fibally broke. Got a new Cub Cadet. It works great too.

                        That's what they are called. String mower. DR makes one. Their field and brush mowers are on a different level though. Much more expensive.
