[QUOTE="Jsmith2211, post: 8141796, member: 147572"] I'd recomend a kuhn disc mower. We have a FC284, this will be its fourth season. Reliable (though i've cursed it now of course) easy to change the blades on, conditioner does a good job and it leaves a good finish if the grass isnt all laid flat. The one gripe i have with it is it doesnt fold vertical, only swings round the back. Its fine, unless you have tiny lanes. We have one field i have to reverse into, as its the only way to get in with all the tail swing. Apart from that, its a very good mower. Mowing about 120ish plus about 40-50 contracting acres (maybe more in the future). On PZ, i wouldnt say the old stuff is good quality either, maybe the mowers are different to the tedders but i have a PZ 4 rotor tedder, fanex 45something and its junk. If you dont have the sway bars on the tractor tightened down as tight as possible the thing will sway from side to side as you drive along. I think it is the design of the headland swivel wheels, but its crap. [/QUOTE]
