Was it always green or did somebody paint it ?
A shot from the hip and in the dark at first I thought it might have been a Servis-Rhino.

You may be on to something. It was Yellow and we painted it green. Ken Sweet

My vote is it that is a Mott finish mower Ken as they used the three row rotor and the long grass slicers.

That rotor can use the long dethatching blades too. You seem to have a brood of damaged

grass slicers from the picture

I agree that it is a Mott brand mower. My father has owned one for 25 years and I don't think the design has changed much.

Thanks to all you guys. Any idea where to find a owners manual for this 6 ft? I was thinking that Alamo Group owned Mott. I will check into that tomorrow. Ken Sweet

Hello Ken,

The pisser is that they completely killed Mott off
and kept the designs in the late 1987-8

The bearings are of course metric like all bearings,
the pulleys are generic V belt puleys,
The rotor would be available from both Flail Master and others?
The folks at Flail master have matched up thier gearboxes too from
what I remember.

The originals which this of which this one is are
bevel/mitre gear(it sure looks like one of these types).:thumbsup:

The knives are available from flailmaster and others.
