They do adapt them to our conditions but usually in the series two models. We got stuck with an early version of the 4500D that overheated badly after the radiator choked with clippings. When we got the updated model they'd fitted a reversing fan set at intervals to blow it out but by then it had been choked by new emissions regulations and wouldn't cope with our thick Ky grass.

We hand mow greens with the Flex 1018.

Seems to cope but we mow every day and remove less than 1mm. The clippings are like dust. Its a well thought out machine ergonomics are adjustable and the controls are all within reach. Everything just seems to flow, makes a big difference when you spend a few hours using it
