I used a 6 ft Brillion rotary cutter to mow hay for several years, neighbor we baled with tried it first. The right side of the Brillion bolted on, easy to take off, He had Dad cut the diagonal piece off behind that right side panel with the torch and weld on angle iron to bolt that piece back on to chop corn stalks. I could mow 20 acres with our 6 ft Brillion in 5-6 hours running in 3rd gear with my Super H. The Brillion was a cheaper cutter, pto shaft only had TWO universal joints, one right by the gearbox, other right by the tractors pto shaft. If you tried to turn too sharp the driveshaft hammered REALLY bad. I also chopped 100 acres of corn stalks late every fall after the corn was picked. A sickle bar mower would be the easiest pulling mower but could cause the most plugging if not maintained well. An M could easily pull a 9 ft sickle mower in 4th gear, 5 mph. A guy posts videos of compact tractors working, named Tractor Time with Tim, He uses a RHINO TS10 rotary cutter behind a tractor about the same HP as your M and he mows some tall weeds/grass and does a really good job mowing, no skips, no streaks, no big bunches of clippings. I'm sure that Rhino mower would be your most expensive mower option.

This is my first (in case my wife reads this, "FIRST") tractor and it has been a learning experience. After considerable advise and assistance from local tractor nuts and the forums of Yesterday�s Tractors, I had finally got it running pretty well. I have tuned it up, overhauled the carburetor, installed a borrowed, rebuilt magneto, installed a new Power-Trol, patched the radiator, installed new front wheels a
