Finnally going to get a crop off that 6 acre field I planted last spring. Took the 706 over to give her a work out. She did just fine. Also took my back up mower. NH 461 real old but for $150 she did a good job. 7 foot haybine is not much of a work out for a 706, but sure was fun. Didnt bother to look in tha gas tank yet.

My obligatory from the seat shot.

461 performed pretty good for $150 mower. Well ok make that $350 with parts. Still need a new belt for the sickle drive. Threw the belt about 5 times. I tightened it down and that helped but the belt is wore out. Looked at the book and saw what it takes to replace it. Not a fun job. Other than that just 2 shear bolts was all the problems.

Started slow 2nd gear, low range. 1/2 throttle. By the end I was ripping her up in 4th gear, low range 3/4 throttle. That seems to be a good speed for this rig.

Pictures look good Kelly!

Now, I know I'm dumbern' a pair of Vice-Grips, but how does that thing drive, anyway? I don't see any PTO.

Is it ground driven?

On the 461 all the gears and chains and stuff all work from the bottom. Not a real good place for all that stuff.

Every time the belt came off it was on a turn and hay got between the belt and the pulley.
If you tag a rock when your not looking it would be bad.

The PTO runs thru the hitch on most New Hollands.

Nice looking hay Kelly. Took me a little while to figure out your "backup" mower but I see you are going ahead :^)

Shoot I think that 706 is way to much over kill for that poor little 461. I pull my NH460 with an Oliver 77 and its about half the tractor the 706 is and it just plays with the 460. Shoot for that matter my baler tractors isn't near as big as that 706. I think you need to find something a little harder on that tractor or it might get the idea that its just out there to play not work. LOL
