What did I just buy?

Anyone know the model of the cutter I picked up today? I’m pretty sure it’s a Woods. It’s belt driven to the spindles and they say Woods 15184. Ordered new belts because they’re splitting. It’s 10’ outside to outside. Need to replace the tires if anyone has recommendations on what to get. One idler pulley is froze but everything else turns smooth. I’m into it pretty reasonable for just clipping the pecan grove. Any info would be great.

I've never in my life seen a mower with a built in bounce platform. That is amazing. You can do a gym workout whilst mowing.

That is pretty innovative. Keep the kids with you when you mow. That way you have someone to get the branches up, so you don't need to get off the tractor.


Edit: looks like your missing parts. I don't see any skids or wheels on the trampoline frame.

Just make sure the kids don’t bounce off in front of the mower while mowing.

I did some searching on the internet... Try "Woods C114-1"

It doesn't look 100% identical, but I think it's a variation of it. Has a hydraulic cylinder to adjust the deck height, instead of that turnbuckle and a couple other little things I noticed.


Someone might have swapped out the cylinder for a turnbuckle to use it with a tractor that didnt have hydraulic remotes

Jack stand suggests it a side-hill mower. Be nice for smoothing fresh concrete.

Heres a picture from an auction site.

Woods C114 Rotary Mower That's the link to it.

That does look like it, thanks. I think someone removed the original cylinder

Gotcha. For what it's worth, I saw some other 114 mowers that someone had added tires like a bushhog. The ones made of stacked up rubber. Not sure if it was a store bought job or not. I've never shopped for that type of tire for something that wasn't a bushhog style wheel.
