It's a commercial Lawnmower, get a job at your local County Council as a grounds keeper or something and play until your hearts content!
Yup, A John Deereif I'm not mistaken!I think the big box on the back is to hoover up any of the s
t it normally leaves behindDriven a few of the industrial mowers ranging from John Deere 855, Roberine, Kubota and a Hater
Good fun little things especially the likes of the Roberine the Hater and some of the John Deere cylinder mowers (as opposed to the rotary ones as above) with the rear steer - top fun and very nimble!
Back when I was at school, I watched a bloke attempt to mow a 45 degree slope using a slightly smaller one of these, with the cylinder blades on the front. It was a rainy day, so the mower promptly slithered all the way down the slope until it came to rest against a classroom wall.
As a result, I spent an unusually entertaining chemistry lesson watching them try to pull it out with a Transit and a ratchet strap. They eventually succeeded, but not after they'd managed to drag it most of the way along the wall, making a very loud noise and mangling one of the grass cutter blades in the process.

Pahhhh we seldom had problems like that As a result, I spent an unusually entertaining chemistry lesson watching them try to pull it out with a Transit and a ratchet strap.
