Anyone familiar with finish mowers?

hogluvr · Jul 26, 2021

Pretty sure I'll be wrapping up things with my tractor this evening, the seals I forgot to order were just delivered, so now I need to focus on my finish mower. It's a Ford 930, 6' cut. Anyone know where I can get a set of belts for this thing? I did a little research and found the length of one of the belts, but nothing on the other one? Also, what do I need to know as far as setting this thing up to cut? I now know more about tractors than I do about this thing, go figure! ha ha :lol:

Check with the folks at the link below. They also have an on-line lookup, I didn't check to see of your mower was listed.

Also, you should be able to find the New Holland number at the link below, and order it though a dealer or cross it at the belt site are at NAPA or a similar store.

ITTO. Youll bogg her down big time if you dont do that (basically cut the grass twice). Also the rotating mass isnt as much as a brush hog but you still want a overrunning clutch.

Thanks, it does have an overrun clutch on it

Keep it greased! It's a PITA pulling the guards and such to get to the zerks, but you don't want to be replacing spindles.

Just curious - & maybe worrying about something that isn't there - when you say "It" has an ORC. I have never seen a finish mower w/an ORC. They go on the tractor pto. Often people confuse a slip clutch an ORC. They are 2completely different things!
