  10. Johny it is not alway the operator unfortantly parts can fail with next to no warning, just from every day use. but thankfully it does not happen to often, it far more commen for something to be not fixed properlly, bad servicing, i know lots of cases of this happening, and the driver/operater never knew till it failed. even operator health can take a turn for the worse, ps most problems with a plane happen within 30hrs of being serviced due to something being misted of not completed croccetly.

  19. you could cut a 100m^2 (10m x10m) with a 53cm 20.9" mower in 2 minutes and 18seconds if you did not over lap and were not picking up as predestion mowers travel at around 5km/hr (1.4m/s) the same speed as an avarage human walking

  25. a blunt chain is a blunt chain but when you compaire the volume acutly cut you will find that a chisel it will go blunt quicker over time as it has a smaller leading edge and there for there is higer stress at this point so it will lead to it failing earlier than semi chisel and it is this point that dose the most work.
