Hi Stevetee, one thing I will say about the Viking mb4rtps is that the front wheel drive system is open to abuse, myself have been lazy at times and not taken drive out when turning, its difficult to explain or understand unless you use these mowers regularly .Has you turn at the ends and pick up the front you can get in a habit of dropping them while in drive , the design of the mower handles encourage you . My little video link might help with the drive system. My other two 21" Vikings (6 series roller and 4 wheeler) bearing well but most of my work is Domestic but the Mulch Viking is mainly used in Factory Grounds, Children's Nursery and a estate so that mower does get some rough work.

Well made piece of kit , its not a nut and bolt build Job either . The roller feed Works a treat if the wood is cleaned up and not like the rubbish I am cutting but the tatty bits top the log from spinning out . I am pleased but they are a bit more expensive but you get what you pay for...Quality build. Ste

Because they quickly get out of hand in no time , has you seem to have a liking to it the best option is to Pollard it then keep it in Shape , has to the dead branches etc this reading may help . Eucalyptus trees respond to drought and other stresses by shedding leaves and twigs to reduce moisture loss through transpiration (tree-breathing). Later, they can grow new leaves and branches from “epicormic buds” buried deep under the bark. It’s a defense mechanism that keeps the tree alive, not a sign that it’s dying. In addition, epicormic sprouting can be a response to fire damage, to increased light (as when nearby trees are cut down), or even just a normal process of tree growth Ste
