Does anyone know if I can use a L59 Woods Belly Mower on my H and keep my 3pt hitch on too. I am looking to buy one and would like to know. Thanks

Triker: You didn't say, but is the 3 point a Saginaw. If that be the case, 3 point shouldn't interfere. Swinging drawbar will however.

I would think either of the 59 inch mowers would be quite narrow for an H. I have a 59 on my SA and tires set on 52" centers, 60" outside. I don't think I'd want to go far off level ground with an H set that narrow. If an H is set wider than mower, the rolling effect of those rear tires will interfere with quality of mowing. I think you would be better off looking for a 306. They are 72" width of cut.

There is another down side to a belly mower. You don't mount them in 5 min., and you don't do much else with tractor while the belly mower is on there. If doing the mower again I think I'd look for a 3 point hitch model. I don't think anyone has matched Woods for mowing quality, but there are better vehicles for a belly or front mount mower than a tractor. These little machines you see with mower out front, are much better on manuverability, but I've yet to see one match the mowing quality of a Woods. I have never checked, but suspect Woods do sell that type of self propelled mower.

The big pulley you will need on pto will not work with the three pt. You can run it off the belt pulley but will have to make it as cant get one from WOODS. The 59 is small for the H and mounting brackets will be hard to do with 3pt Get a RM-59 and that you could use the 3pt.

I have not seen that setup on an H. If the mower runs off the belt pulley it probably is not a problem. If it runs off the PTO there is likely interference, but I can't say for sure. It would not work on a C/Super C with either fast hitch or 3 point, as it does not have a separate pulley.
