disc mower recommendation

[goat lady joyce]

Looking for advice on best disc mower for Kubota L4400. Have about 15 acres to mow. Have looked at Sitrex (new) so far with a price tag of around $7K. Would consider something used if it was in good condition. Anything up from the sickle bar on the old 52 Farmall will be an improvement!

There are so many to choose from. I ran the Frontier DM 1160 Liked it so much that we got our second one this year ... so we will cut with 2 -
DM1160's this year.

A good used one may be hard to find ... there are alot of them out there but buying a used one can cost alot in repair parts.

I would also use the closest dealer if you go new ... sure is nice when your in the hay field and you have a problem.

The dealer where we bought our L4400 sells Sitrex disc mowers and they suggested the smallest model they sell because the size of our tractor. Pricey...but new sure is attractive.

Yes they don't give them away !!! Warranty does come along as well as the dealer support ... I would strongly lean towards the dealer who sold you the tractor.

Here is a Ebay link to a really nice used 7 ft Tonutti disc mower that just came in on trade to a discbine. It is right in every way. The "Off Ebay" price would be some less that what you will see on the listing. Ken Sweet
