The topic of truck rear-end shredders came up in another thread and there is a lot of interest in the subject because a lot of people have never seen them. My boss gave me two to use for a while. I have 1 regular mower and 1 lead mower which has 1 hitch on each side so that it can pull 2 more. Most of these mowers I have seen have the non-directional military tires and everybody I have talked to about them pretty much said they are made out of WWII surplus trucks. Mine have a lever so that the gears can be put in neutral for transport and also have a high and low range. The low range seems to turn at about the same speed as a PTO mower when going a reasonable speed. The high gear is too high for grass. The tires just slide along the ground, which probably could be corrected with better tires and more weight. Each of my mowers has a 7' cut. It's too wet right now for me to find out how wide the cut is when I hook 2 or 3 together. I was hoping I could use the third mower but I'm not sure if my 400 can pull it. My boss doesn't think so but I sure want to try it.
