No. Well, yes, mabey. I've got a 1460 which is the same mower with rollers instead of flails. I run it on a NH TS90 which is supposed to make 77 hp. Also on a 7710 which is turning 100+.
On the hills, in a heavy first cut, the TS90 is lugging. The 7710 is lugging for that matter, but holding speed. The TS is geared down. It's also enough mower to throw those tractors around on the corners when you're moving.... anf they're both ballasted to over 11500#
So.... 60 may run it slowly if things are just right, but it's really going to punish the tractor. If it's a small frame tractor without the weight of the TS or 10 Fords, it's going to get thrown around..... It wouldn't be me running it with 60.

Beyond that, check that the bar is in good condition. Grab the discs and see if they're tight. Side play isn't good. Look for rock damage, etc. Those are the big things.
