Re: NH 451 7\' sickle mower???

I don't know about the 450, but I ordered one for the 451 from NH yesterday. Kind of pricey I thought... 20 bucks for the manual and 7 for shipping/handling.

Found a owners manual for a 450 at

OrangeGuy,

A kit is available from New Holland that is supposed to adapt the top link for smaller CUT's and eliminate clearance problems. Judging only from pictures in the parts manual it doesn't appear to be too complicated, but does include a top link. You should be able to contact your local NH dealer and get the price.

Thanks Glenn! I will check it out. I would rather cut with my new Kubota L3430 with the air-conditioned cab than my 1957 Allis Chalmers D14.
