I have a 12 mower that I fixed up and used a few years ago to mow 40 acers of set aside ground. The pitman and cutter bar parts are all pretty standard with other IH mowers. Several thinks are screwed on with left hand threads like the pitman nut on the flywheel. I also seem to remember the pto and flywheel are left hand threaded onto there shafts. From experiance I can tell you 20 to 30 acers would be a long day, 10 acers and you know you did somthing. Twisting around to pull the lift leaver is back killer. Mowing rough ground with the lift leaver bouncing back and fourth by your elbo teaches you to keep your arms tucked in. The trip bar is a manuel reset so you get off every time to do that, it was real fun in the poison ivy. On flat good ground you could make fair time with it if you kept your headlands narrow.
