Disc Mowers for Compact Tractors

HayDR · Dec 4, 2003

This disc mower caddy will allow a compact tractor to be used since the mower's weight is carried by the cart. This will reduce the HP needed for the disc mower. Most MFG's post larger min. HP numbers because the tractor needs to have enough mass to safely carry the disc mower on 3 point hitch. MADE IN THE USA

I am intrigued. How much is it? What kind of turning room does that take compared to a 3 pt style? How does it compare to the drum mower ya'll sell? I am tired of cutting with a sickle. Chet

$1,500 each for the disc mower caddy without the disc mower.
The disc mower cart should track the same as a haybine.
What size tractor do you have?
The Drum mowers are a great value but some people want a disc mower. The cart is just an option many people may not know exists. If a customer wants to cut 7-8' and has 40+ HP in a compact, then a disc mower & cart is a feasible option, if the tractor has exterior hydraulic couplers.

The drum mowers cut just like the disc mowers but do not require exterior hydraulics. We have 3 models of drum mowers to fit different size tractors.

I have a 4500 4wd Mahindra, I only cut 10-20 acres a year for square bailing. I just loathe wrestling with the sickle mower, conditions have to be just right, etc.etc... I have looked at your pictures of the drum mower before and it is in my price range, approx what would shipping cost to SE Okla?

I can't believe my eyes!!
In our village, such drum mowers are being extensively used especially by animal raisers. There are several popular models and one of them being manufactured by TURKAY TARIM in Izmir looks very similar to this drum mower in the picture. Or, it's same product? I knew they were exporting to Europe for decades and was hearing a rumor that they also started to export their products to USA a year ago or two. Good product. We call it here as Red GRIZZLY;-0

By the way, I liked the disc mower above with the cart MADE IN USA.
