Just bought it and plan to rebuild it and put it to work. It actually doesn't have any markings etc. on it other than a faint McCormick International sticker on one side. I am guessing at the model based on some brochures I found on ebay 1964 or so. Anyhow does anybody have any information on this disk or direct me to parts?
It is a 7.5-8' disk, rears are 24" notched blades, fronts are worn, and most are 17-19", so not sure what size front blades it had originally.
Lots of welds and repairs over the years. Entire front gang subframe will need to be rebuilt, rear is in OK shape. When I took apart the front gang I found a 1.5" round axle with round spool centers but with square 1.5" disc holes? I assume that it has been retrofitted over and over to get that combination? OR is it acceptable to put square hole discs on a round axle?
Bearings are very weird and appear to be built into the spools??
I will try to post some pictures and any help is appreciated.
