I have two Woods belly mowers - one that came on an 8N Ford and one from a Farmall A. I have the manual that came with the 8N. It is an L59. The other one must be a 59 also as they are identical. The one that came with the A has been through a war.
Here's my question:
The two mowers rotate opposite. Can I just put the blades from one on the other and run it backwards on the other tractor? I don't use the skids or side guards on it so I am not concerned with how it throws the grass. I am just not familiar with those bearings and whether I can run it reversed of what it was doing. If I reverse the routing of the belt to make it turn like it was designed will it just throw belts?
