I am considering buying a 6ft Continental belly mower for my Massey Ferguson 50 from my neighbor who deals in used tractors. I tried out the mower, and have some questions about my setup. There seems to be no way of raising the mower completely off the ground. I want to leave it on all summer, but I do not want to have it dragging the ground when I am not mowing. Is there some other means used normally to raise and lower the front of the mower. The mower has 2 chains on the front that I was told had to connect to the tractor to prevent it from swaying. I thought that these chains could be used to attach to a lever arm that I would make for raising the front of the mower.
The 3pt hitch only raises and lowers the back of the mower over a small range. If I raise it to much, the beam on the mower hits the bottom of the tractor, and the hydraulics go into runaway condition where it is trying to raise even if I lower the control lever. I have to press the clutch to release the hydraulic pressure for it to un-jam.
Any help would be appreciated. I am trying to decide whether to buy it, and I obviously have reservations about spending the money.
Thank You Brad

I think the specials had power steering as well
