I think that these machines came without guards because back then, people just generally weren't as dumb as they are now and were much more careful around equipment. Too many city-slickers getting their parts chopped off prompted tougher safety laws. Just my two cents

Looks pretty illegal to me... but then Downunder anything goes, like using propane for refrigerant in a car air conditioner.

I really like the old well built equipment without all the safety crap. I know how to work safe & I won't allow you to use it if you don't. People now are too stupid, so they need some kind of nanny to protect them. - If you disagree & are one of the ones that need protecting then I guess that pretty much says it all. - Don't bother telling me about how accidents cause injury or death, I already know that & don't care to hear it from you. - Again it speaks volumes about you. Scared?, don't use.

I've done that w/ 30" mower deck and brush blade. Still nice vid . Thanks for shareing.

I had one of these that came with a shroud to prevent anything from flying back. It was factory but I'm sure it was an extra cost option.

I need a good number of Gravely Walk Behind with a Rotary Head Cutter attachment for cutting down Gorse, Black Berry, Juli Flora bushes in our fields. I also need a chipper attachment which would chip the cut bushes and branches on the field. Can someone help me in getting the right source with contact details. My mail ID is lvrlokesh@gmail.com. 00919948166772, 00919393796007. I require atleast 10 machines + Cutter Attachments + Chipper Attachments for India.

Cheers for the comment, but i spose crossing the road is dangerous too and using a bench saw is fairly dangerous too, but gravely did make these saw attachments and this is how they come , some with a guard and some without.

i am not all about safety or anything just an open blade wouldn't like sticks and rocks go flying ?

amazingly not much does fly around with this blade , even if i let it cut into a pile of stones, i spose because the blade is thin,it just vibrates its way through..where as with a gravely mower attachment it chucks sticks and stones out the front..but yes you are right, these are dangerous and not for the light hearted..
