Getting deeper into the 515 sickle mower I bought on Saturday. Looks like all I will need to do is repair or replace is the cutter bar which is broken where it connects to the wobble shaft. Bearings feel OK turning the pulleys by hand and everything else looks pretty good.
Wondering if anyone has converted one of these to a hydraulic lift. I have rear remotes on both of my tractors and it doesn't look to be too difficult a job to remove the lift linkage and replace it with a hydraulic cylinder. Thinking with hydraulics controlling the lift would make it a little more versatile for mowing ditch banks.
