Changing the belt is not all that tough but it does take a few minutes.

I've been mowing with a 479 for several years but have an old 461 I like the best. It was really a trouble-free machine and pulled great behind an H or M. It is light enough the belly pumps will really pop it up when you go to turn over a windrow. The 461 rusted out and needs an overhaul I just have not had time to do.

I'd buy the belt from NH. For some reason the NH drive belts last a lot longer than even good Gates belts from a supply house.

You should be able to mow as fast as the field is smooth in that short stuff. Speed up the reel if necessary.

That mower will mow 8 ft heavy sudan.
