Sounds to me like you got an old mower there. May well even be a horse drawn set up. You might take a better look at the tongue as well.

These tongues were subject to be altered in later years when farmers turned the horses lose and got on there first tractor. Alot of them cut there tongues off and made them shorter so the machinery would work better on the tractor. There was no need for the exceptionally long tongue then. I have never seen a real early mower for tractor but the mounted seat on implement is kind of a dead giveaway for horse drawn.

I wish I could get my hands on one of these books again. If you could find one, it would probably be in there. I hope this helps.
