I've got a Kuhn disc mower that is close to the same thing. They are a good machine. I have a tedder that lets me bale at least a day earlier. I have mine on a 4630 Ford and it's a little light, I wouldn't want to use it in tall hills. My 856IH handles it better but I keep it on the baler. The 1st thing you want to do is change the oil in the cutter bar and gearbox and check for wear. The discs should be tight. If it's been sitting a while you may want to polish the pulleys, the belts will grab if there is much rust and will twist. When I got mine it was nearly new but had been sitting for a couple of years. I put a banded belt on instead of the 4 belts. It helped a lot.
In my area $3000 would be on the high side because there are a lot of disc mowers around for sale. I would say $2-2500 in this neck of the woods.
