We recently purchased a McCormic Deering #7 horse drawn sickle mower. We noticed it had a solid aluminum pittman.

When he put everything back together he noticed it was extremely hard to move the blades even with the guides only tightened down "finger" tight. He said that it was so hard to move, it probably would have snapped a wooden pittman. Any ideas as to why the blades are so hard to move and any solutions?
