I found a JD 307 Gyramotor today for 350. I think its the 6 foot model.
I"m guessing from the style of decal it came out with the New Generation Tractors in the late 60s-early 70s?
Are they a good model rotary cutter? I"ve never bought a used bush hog before, I asked about the bearings, the salesman didn"t know. Is there anything I should check out on it before I consider it - the only thing its missing are the chains that go in front of the cutter to guard against flying debris.
Now that I think about it, is 350 a good price? the top steel cover above the spindle is a bit dinged up but other than that it looks ok. I was going to have the dealer run it through the thickest brush they could find to see how it would do.
And my final question (my favorite) I realize the optimum match up for my Massey 135 would be a 5 foot bush hog like the king cutter I have at home. (Or, am I better off just rebuilding the king kutter?)
But since I can"t afford to buy a brand new bush hog can I get away with the 6 foot in tall grass? My tractor is the gas deluxe and it has the IPTO but I don"t have Multipower.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
