Sickle Bar Mower for Satoh Beaver 370D

[dlrepic]

Hi,

Anyone have luck finding/using a sickle bar mower with the Beaver? I have a Case 10 3PT PTO mower that's just too big for my little guy.

Thanks
Dani

Not sure about finding a sickle bar but this rotary cutter is about the right size 4 ft brush hog

or try this...ford sickle bar hay mower

Not an expert, but what might be the chances of simply cutting off a foot or so from the end? Might just work.
Seems to me that cutting and re positioning some end pieces could do the trick.

The big question is whether he has the PTO reverser or not. I'll assume so but...

Not sure if a reverser would be needed for a sickle bar.

Thanks guys - as I'm not a welder or metal worker of any kind, I'll forgo "refining" the bar. I do have the PTO reverser, so things work just fine there. My neighbor is going to let me use his AC, but they laugh at my "baby" tractor. :confused3:

Not sure if it would matter for a sickle bar but it would for a rotary cutter. He has the reverser so his main issue is having a "little" tractor. One that seems to do work beyond its size.

I think years ago we used to sell a Haban sickle bar mower for the Beavers.
