In Reply to: CCM 165 Drum Mower posted by Tooler969 on September 20, 2017 at 07:19:59:
I have a CCM 190 mower that was purchased in 2011. So far I have replaced belts once (a year or so ago), had a bracket for the top cover break and had it welded back, and had the bearings in one of the discs go bad. Cost was $117 for 2 complete bearing stacks including shipping. Easy to change out. Only other think is that I hit a harrrow in a field a few years ago. Bent up the outer drum pretty bad. Rebent it back to make it usable then replaced the drum. New drum cost $250. That hit on the harrow would have destroyed or seriously maimed a discbine.
I am however going to buy a discbine. We are wanting to bale legumes and I find that the drum mower, combined with using a tedder is too harsh on alfalfa, etc. Will likely keep the drum in the event we need to bale some heavy grass. It cuts thru that like a hot knife thru butter.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
