Bobcat Mid-Mount Mowers
Bobcat Co. has released a new implement for use on compact tractors — a mid-mount mower. Homeowners with acreage, landscape companies and others use mid-mount mowers to cut grass in areas where maneuverability is tight. The Bobcat mid-mount mower has six anti-scalping wheels that protect the mower blades and turf from damage. The anti-scalping wheels touch the ground first when mowing over uneven terrain and prevent the mower deck from scraping the ground, resulting in longer blade life and a consistent cutting height. The anti-scalping wheels are fixed to the mower deck and can be adjusted when an extremely low cutting height is desired. RS#60

Five Class 2 and Class 3 Farmalls are available with PTO horsepower ranging from 25 to 43 hp; plus two Class 4 Farmall models with PTO hp ratings of 47 and 51 are available. For mowing, snowblowing, grading, landscaping, material handling and all-around farm use, there’s a flexible Farmall compact tractor ready to tackle any job. RS#61

Venture Contour Mower
The new Ventrac MJ840 contour mower by Venture Products Inc. will give your rough areas a finished and manicured look. The MJ840 is designed to cut uneven ground, green surrounds and other similar areas. The front mount, three-deck wing system has four front flat-free tires and three full rear rollers and is capable of 40-degree motion. The wing system allows the operator to follow the contour of the land more closely for a smoother overall cut, as each cutting unit is able to move independently of the other units. Front rollers are used for anti-scalping and full rear rollers for even cutting and striping. Cutting width is 84 in. and cutting height is ¾ to 3 ½ in. with 12 cutting positions. RS#65
