You haven't mentioned what tractor you want to use with the mower or it's hydraulic capabilities.
I find it hard to believe NI would have built the mower so that it could only be lifted by the most modern high pressure hydraulic systems.
There forth I'm questioning the condition of the tractors hydraulic pump and relief valve.
If the tractors hydraulics are in good condition wouldn't it be simpler if room allows to swap out the mowers lift cylinder for one with a larger diameter barrel.
Don't have my book in front of me that tells what the increase is on lifting force if one changed from a 3" dia cylinder to say a 3 1/2 or even 4" keeping the rod dia the same.
My first move would be to install a pressure gauge inline and see how much actual pressure the tractor is putting against the cylinder. If I had another tractor that would raise the mower bar I'd connect to it's hydraulics and using the inline gauge I'd see how much pressure it actually takes to lift the bar.
This would give one a number needed in order to formulate what is needed to make up for the tractors lack in hydraulic capability.

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
