What is the factory website address. I can't
seem to locate it. I bring up several dealers
websites. The price is so cheap I can't resist
looking at one. Is the machine reliable?
I know it is not as heavy as the Kuhn(JD, old NH),Vicon, NH, Lely(Vermeer), Krone etc. I have a
JD 820 moc/co for the Alfalfa, NH 451 for regular
hay, I have 2 fields that are so steep the hay falls forward and to the side and clogs the 451.
It would be used on 20 acres a year max. So I want to know if it would hold up reliably for this little amount of work. The fields have no rocks or stumps.

Fort,
Is owned by the Morra family. These are the same people that own Leverda,McCormick, & Landini. The Fort mower is a knock off of the Kuhn mower. The hitch is a different design than Kuhn but the cutterbar is a close copy of the current Kuhn cutterbar. Will they mow? Yes about the same as any disc mower. The adjustments are not as easy to operate as the premium mowers. They usually are sold by jockey style dealers. They tend to sell on price and not serviceability. If you have a good dealer close to you then you likely would get a good value. The best Fort dealer I know is Valley Equipment in Science Hill, KY.

For that amount of use they would probably be OK. I would not recomend for large amounts of hay. I would use behind the smallest tractor possiable so if it gives trouble it will start bogging the tractor down rather than tear up.
