Sickle Bar Front mount sickle bar?

[tcreeley]

Used to have a side mount sicklebar on my 48 Farmall cub. That worked very well. Plenty of visibility. Ran just in front of the back tire.

I know that others have said they don't make front mount sickle bar mowers for the front, but I have one for the front of my tractor. My tractor is small and so is the sickle mower about 36", my tractor is a Gravely. The mower is off a walk behind, I have an adapter that fits to the front PTO of my tractor and it has a hydro lift. I had pictures but my old puter died and I've lost those pictures. If you are still interested I can dig up the mower out of storage and set it up and take some pictures so you can see how it works. I have all my summer attachments stored and my winter attachments out. Let me know if you want to see it.

Just what this post is about. And it is For Sale

Why are you selling it?

 

[nc redneck]

Sold the 23 acres with pond, dam and a lot of ditch banks that I built it for. It will also trim trees up to around 20 feet. Cut a 1 1/2 pine limb off fast, will do hardwoods the same but you have to let it chew on it for 30 to 45 seconds.
Dont really need it or 45 Kioti for 3 acres.

I like that device. Whats the length of the sickle bar?

 

[nc redneck]

6 foot

Looks like you need 4 function hydraulics in the front. Are you one of those guys with an extra thumb?

OK just bought a 6 foot farmall side mount sickle. It will be a donor to build a device like NC Redneck's.
