Your 45 PTO HP tractor can handle a 6' rough cut mower in most conditions if the mower is not too heavy.
It is not adequate for a 7' cutter in anything but absolutely ideal conditions, then only if the mower is very light, you have front weights (or FEL) and no steep ground.
Your tractor cannot begin to handle a Woods BB840X, which is a heavy 7' cutter. I once owned one of these and it is a heavy cutter, around 1,400 Lbs., IIRC. I used mine with a heavy MF 60 PTO HP tractor and later a 90 PTO HP Kubota. The hitch components of your Kubota will not hold up even if it will lift it.
I currently use a Woods BB720X, 6' cutter (same series as the BB840X and also heavy) with my 53 PTO HP Kubota. My L6060 has sufficient power for most of my work but I have broken hitch components three times.
The BB840X is too big and too heavy for your tractor.

I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
