Seems a little excessive, did you always keep the blades spinning all the time, even when turning around? Cut a lot off at once? Reel mowing looks great, use to work for a professional landscape at one point and have 2 brothers who still do it professionally

I'd keep the blade setting locked so yeah the blades were always spinning. Having to turn 1000 times no way I wouldn't have kept them spinning.

My yard isn't really that great for a reel but I used one anyway. It looked good but I had dropped back to once a week so it was cutting a good bit off. A reel is really only for a flat, very small yard where cutting 2-3 times a week isn't a burden.

No joke for maintenance of the Trucut for a season I could have bought a $600 Honda rotary and thrown it away at the end of the season.
