Buried and Broke a new mower

What happens here

The mower is equipped with a 500cc Briggs & Stratton engine and features an electric start. To start the engine, insert the key into the 'Electric Start' ignition switch and turn it to the 'Run' position. This engages the engine, providing independent power for the flail blades. The host also discusses the robust design of the flail blades, which are specifically engineered to withstand impacts from rocks, stumps, and other debris without causing significant damage to the mower's spindle or other critical components.

Goal: Operate the mower's engine and understand blade durability

and this has its own power source correct it's a 500cc Briggs and straden engine with an onboard battery so you can have a keyed start now it's also a Flail Mower though let's get very serious about this because you can hit rocks with this thing and you're not going to shatter a spindle you're not going to to decimate this thing exactly it's got flail blades in there that are designed to take and absorb those blows as you're hitting stumps rocks shrubs trees whatever you're tackling let's lift this up and take a look at this before we get it too dirty let's do that okay so another thing that I forgot to mention we show me that rope will you real quick because you have that rope yep that rope is the engagement rope that's your engagement rope so from your machine you can engage disengage excuse me disengage I'm sorry
