y didnt say how many acres...you could use a smaller 5 perhaps 6 rotor disc mower or a jd 350 9'6" sickel mower w stub gards i touch up the sickel mower at 15/20 acres with a mini grinder. change from rivits too bolts use the medium coarse top serrated sections and mowe in 5th gear with a jd 60, 40 hp pto, in lite/medium hay, 4th in shoulder high hay 4 5x6 bale/acre. I think there is more maintance with the sickel mower but the entry cost and hp requirement is less...less you have a lot of rocks. I think that youd have less invested in 2 40hp tractors and 2 350 9'mowers than a 4020 and a 7 rotor disc more if you have the 2nd operator how doesnt tear up the equipment. the disk mower will need the bar repaired sooner or later and that will be expensive. the faster you go the more you damage you can do. goodluck

He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects. ... [Read Article]
