I bought a Swisher 44" rough Cut Trailcutter Commercial Pro with a 14.5hp Kawasaki engine early last year. I tow it with a 2007 JD Gator 620i. Bought it from Home Depot and had it delivered to my house.

I'm very pleased with it's performance. It'll handle just about anything I can drive my Gator over except for heart pine stumps that I don't notice. Then the engine stalls out but restarts right away.

I can adjust height up to 7" which is just about perfect to mow my clover plots. It is hard to adjust but once you get the hang of leveling front and rear of mower, it does get easier. It cuts trails with ease through the thick underbrush and small trees which grow up within the pine tree rows on our tree farm lease.

The only problem I've had is when I forgot the control box was attached to the bed of my gator and drove away from it after un-hitching the mower. Damaged several electrical wires and the cable that engages the blades. My mechanic buddy had me up and running in a few hours.
