Woods Batwing Mower 2 year Review...Good, bad and Ugly?

What happens here

Examine the chain shields, which are heavy-duty and located at the front and rear of the mower. These chains prevent debris, trash, sticks, or metal from being ejected from under the mower and striking the tractor or anything in the vicinity. The chains are replaceable, allowing individual rows or the entire set to be changed. The mower also features a 'Woods Quick Change Blade System,' which allows for quick and easy blade replacement (estimated 15 minutes for all blades). This system prevents significant downtime if blades are damaged by rocks or other obstacles.

Goal: Understand the safety features (chain shields) and the quick-change blade system.
