It should have no problem handling just about any 6' rotary mower. I have an old heavy duty Woods 5' on the back of my '73 4000 with the gasoline 201 engine and it doesn't even know it's back there. I go over saplings as big as 1.5" in diameter and it chops them up like you put them through a wood chipper.
Looking at the specs on that mower, it says that it's for tractors in the 30 to 120 hp range, which is a pretty wide range, but the PTO on your tractor should be somewhere between 50 and 55 hp, so it should handle it fine. The specs also say that it's capable of cutting things up to 3" in diameter, but I would guess that is probably only when hooked to tractors in the upper end of the rated hp range, but as long as you stay under 2" I would think that you would have no problem. I've never tried to cut anything over 1.5": with mine, but from the results so far I don't doubt that mine could handle 2" easily.
