Hooking up #5 mower to JD Model B

Subject: Re: Hooking up #5 mower to JD Model B

Comments:
: I have an early JD model B with the power lift system. Not the power-trol. I currently use it to pull a tow brush hog for field cutting. A friend gave me a #5 mower which I would like to hook up and use but I am missing a few parts: The #5 has a set of two clamps that appear to clamp on a special round drawbar. I do not have this drawbar. I also do not have any method for raising and lowering the cutting bar. I have consulted the regional JD genius, Carl Fowler of Bennington, VT. He says I need a rocker arm and pulley and cable for this operation. Anyone out there have these parts for a reasonable price? Explanations for how this whole Doo-dad works as well as tips are also helpful. Even a #5 users manual would be very valuable. : Grateful for help, : Mark : Email: angelanorth@worldnet.att.net
