They sell a lot of old-timey articles like scythes and bucket yokes, plantation-grade gear. That looks like it would be hard for a human pony to pull. What does 7HP translate to in people power? The calculator is both right and wrong. The unit ships at what I recall is 184 pounds, which is probably (a lot) more than it weighs for a number of reasons. They recommend a 7HP or better tractor to pull, but remember, that tractor also has to propel itself at the same time it's pulling the mower with an estimated 200lb operator too. Most garden tractors tip the scales anywhere from 3-500 pounds alone. It wouldn't be easy for a human pony to do, especially with a 'rider' and the necessary mods for a seat, etc., but it wouldn't be overly difficult either. Obviously, they'd need 'practical' footwear for this exercise, as opposed to the kinds you see in the porn pics/videos, but that's a minor point.
