CCI,
Do they make a 7 footer?
How much are new blades?
Are they sectioned?
How hard are they to get(imported I guess)?
Will they cut through "bunch grass" around a tank?

These Sickle bar mowers are made for compact tractors. The main duty is trimming around and mowing ditch banks. Sickle bar mowers are not intended to be used as bush hogs but can handle 1/2" stuff on a limited basis. We do not make a 7' because many of the CUT's could not accommodate that size.

CCI, when the sickle mower is mounted, does the cutting edge start at the outside edge of the wheel, or is it inbound of that. I'm trying to figure how far it will actually cut beyond the outside edge of the rear tire on a BX 2200.
Also, approximately what angle can the bar be used? If you are riding beside the ditch (or in my case the pond) will the cutter angle downward? If yes, do you know the angle?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Glenn9643, I saw an ad in the "wanted" column in the LA Market bulletin. Didn't realize it was yours. When I read it, I said "Good Luck, I've been trying to find one myself". Guess the jokes on me. I didn't think anyone responded to the "wanted" ads. If you got a NH 451 for $300, you got a helluva deal. Did he have another one by chance? /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

The Super 65 will start cutting at the outside of the rear tire. It will mow 70 degree vertical and 20 degree below horizontal. The cutterbar cuts 5'5". This mower is designed for compact tractors.

DK_Farms,
The owner wasn't a dealer and had nothing else to sell that I'm aware of. I had two or three other calls of interest other than the one I bought. While I was driving south to get the mower I had a call from someone in N Louisiana with a IH 1300 for $300 and another guy (I think near Jonesville) with a JD 350. If you're looking I would recommend the "wanted" ad because it seems like by the time you call after seeing the ad in the bulletin someone else has bought it. If it's a deal the first caller is going to buy it! I've noticed the the MS market bulletin has listed several in the past few months and would recommend posting a wanted ad there if you're willing to drive a little.
