I am looking at buying a Ford 515 sickle bar mower and have a few questions.

Anyone have and/or used one of these? It has a 7 foot cutter bar and is belt driven.

From what I can tell, it is complete, but needs a new belt (the one has a chunk of missing) and maybe a new idler pulley. It might be that the bearing can be pressed-out and replaced on though.

Are belts and bearings still available for one of these machines? What kind of $$ are we looking at for a new belt?

I assume that all wear parts are still available as are manuals from New Holland?

How well does this machine cut? Is a good machine?

Lastly, I have read of a wheel that one could get for these that allow clipping of the pasture. I assume it enables the cutter bar to be some height above the ground?

Thanks in advance,
Bill
