    Gear box HP ratings

    Random thoughts as I research rotary cutters. Is there any advice about using a cutter with a lower gear box rating than your tractor and is the gear box hp rating engine or pto. Example would be a 60 hp gear box rating on a 67 EHP tractor with 61.7 pto hp. Or a more extreme case a 78 EHP/72...

    Looking at a Used Tractor (Need Opinion)

    I own 60 acres that is in CRP and used for Hunting. My primary need is for large multi-acre food plots and keeping the CRP mowed/sprayed. I have been looking at tractors in the 55-60 hp Range. This one is 67 so it would fit my need just fine. I would buy it if it was an LS/Kubota/Kioti/Massey etc.

    Looking at a Used Tractor (Need Opinion)

    There is a dealer in my area that deals in McCormick, Deutz, Zetor, and Claas. I spoke with them and they have a certified Zetor mechanic on staff and have access to warehouse stock for the more common maintenance parts and of course sell the tractors. They've been a Zetor dealer for 18 years.
