Ive had so many branches in the head. I was going full speed the other day and one pointing at me hit me right in the head. I was mowing up a hill and a branch caught me and my controls and almost made me flip

Another benefit for remote control lawn mowers...
Take the seat and handles off and add a remote.
Problem solved.
Take it a step further and make it so you can pull a few pins and convert right back to a rider. Comes in handy for the steep stuff also.

Hello? The wife doesn't mow the yard?

I like grassman's idea of form notice to the customer to remove branches.....

I would have to say, if a particular branch ticks me off enough, on the next visit I just plow thru with the Z and roll bar and that branch gets taken right off
