How often do you guys service the blades? My year old 52" Tigercat is only a home owner machine and I don't put the hours on it like some of you. I have around 20 hrs on it now. On the other machines I own (Craftsman tractor) I sharpen the blades yearly, but on the Scag I wonder if it's even needed. The scag is cutting good and I'm careful not to run over stuff that can damage it. Currently it's working hard bagging my fall clean up weekly. My leaf pile is huge out front, thanks to Scag reliability. So far I'm really happy I spent the money on the professional zero turn machine. The yard tractors are toys next to it and break down often.
What I do currently is I blow the leaves off the fence line and around the trees, then jump on 1 of my older machines just to pre mulch the leaves, then hop on the scag and pick it up. The scag can do it all but I use the other machines just to spread the work around some.
