I have a Side Winder G/B-605 Model 3 pt brushhog and was wondering approx how much these units weigh? It is used on a '57 Ford 640 that currently has a Ford 703 loader on it. Reason I am asking is that I am planning to remove the loader and am wondering if i will have enough weight on the front to keep the tires on the ground and still be able to lift the mower. I have looked around and can not seem to find any manuals or other info on this Side Winder. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I do have a manual, Assembly,Operation instructions, and parts manual for a G/B-605
and related. $ 6.50 postage included if you want.
21 pages out of my binder. This does not show the
weight either-that was always shown in the new
equip price book but I cannot find that. They are
heavy. If you ever need an 1-800 phone number for
parts I have that somewhere. Chuck

I have a 6' Side Winder Model H, 6 X 6, 3 pt. bush hog. It was made by FMC Corp. in Louisiana, I believe a 1974 model. I checked my owners manual and it didn't list a weight. It is heavy built though and must weigh at least 500# or more. I have used it on my JD 530 for years. The 530 will lift it and mow just fine with it with no front weight on the tractor. But I use it on level ground also. Most of the time I do have a JD #45 loader on the tractor with a dirt bucket, and feel it balances things better with the front ballast the loader provides. Can't say how your Ford may handle it as I'm not familiar with them. I tried to Google both side winder and FMC Corp. FMC came up as a chemical company (insecticides etc.), and didn't get anything related to rotary mowers for side winder. FMC used to make Bolens garden tractors also. I had a Bolens 12 hp tractor with mower deck and snow plow back in the 80's. It was a good heavy machine also. Not sure if that FMC Corp. is still in business.
