1962 IH 340 utility
A friend of ours purchased an International Low Boy tractor when he purchased his property. We had another friend take a look at it to see what type of brush hog or finish mower would work with it. He said that the owner would have to find either the mid-mount or rear deck that is made for this tractor. Thought I would verify that this is the case and see if anyone had any leads about where one might be found. Thanks in advance!

Wengers of Myerstown PA is the only place besides looking at the www.tractorhouse.com or www.autiontime.com classifieds.





If this Lowboy is one of the older ones with the engine
and driver seat on one side or the newer 4 cylinder gas
engine low boy built in 1969-70 with the diamond turf tires
and the PTO engagement lever on the right side of the seat
you have decision to make.

The belly mounted Mott flail mower for the first tractor is no longer available.

The belly mounted 3 blade 6 foot side discharge mower is no longer available
for the second model.


The belly mower for this tractor requires the original pulley attached to the rear PTO stub,
the original twin pulley V belt guide and spring tensioned snubber pulley
and a very very long V belt.

Does this low boy still have the three point hitch it was sold with?

If it does have the three point hitch you could easily power an
integral mounted 4 foot finish flail or rear integrally mounted
three blade 5 foot mounted rotary mower.



I think you will be money ahead trading it towards a John Deere
four wheel drive lawn tractor with needed seasonal attachments.

Thanks for the info., Leonz! I will pass it on to the owner. I don't think it has the three point hitch. It's kind of sounding to me like this wasn't such a good deal with no attachments included or available separately.
