Hello all,
I have found a 4 foot 3PH mount John Deere flail mower for sale and am wondering if this would be a good addition to my current implement arsenal:
1) Would my JD 855 handle it Ok?
2) He's asking $325 for it in "Good Condition". I haven't seen it yet but it is close to home. Is this a good price if the unit is in fact in good shape?
3) I haven't investigated these type of mowers before - what are the benefits as opposed to other types of mowers? My 5 acres are pretty rocky underneath the grass/clover/brush.
4) He says the flails are in good shape does anyone have any idea how much these cost to replace?
5) Is there anything specific I should look for when looking at the unit?
Thanks All!!/w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif
