I broke the main beam that the guards bolt to, and supports the knife yesterday. The break occurred under the wobbler gearbox and through the right side/ outboard mounting hole in the main beam. ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS HAPPEN TO THEM?? Best way to repair? Can this be weld repaired? Can the beam be shortened from it's present 7', and redrilled to mount??
BTW--- this happened as I was slowly mowing tall overgrowth along a creek bank. The end of the cutter bar caught in the bank of a small ditch running into the creek. As I started to back up, and lift the mower blade at the same time the main beam made a loud snap and shifted forward binding the mower knife. I knew the mower had a break away mechanism to the rear, but never dreamed that this backing up action would snap the main beam letting it move forward.
Any help, advice, words of wisdom, been there done that, etc. is greatly appreciated.
