In addition to what "old" said, be sure to size the tractor to the rotary cutter. For example, if you have/buy a cutter that takes a minimum 60 hp tractor, then buy a tractor with at least that amount. If not, you risk frying the PTO clutch.

I'd also vote for the Oliver (I have one) and if you find one with "Hydraul-Shift" you will have 18F and 6R speeds. This is very handy for mowing.
