Terry: Is this mower rear mount or side mount. Rear mount would be A-16, side mount would be A-22 or A-23 These mowers will all bolt up to tractor. The 16 was the only one that had a hand lever option. I expect the 22 could be lifted with a cultivator hand lift, and I expect with a bit of inginutity you could use exhaust lift on either.

The A-23 was the highway mower, if you tackle that one with a hand lift, your going to have an able set of arms by summers end. I doubt if the exhaust lift would lift that one.

Terry: Forget those lofty titles like Mr. and Sir, I'm just Hugh.

The A-22 mower was only ever sold as 5' or 6' cut, quite light in relation to the A-23. The A-23 was only sold as a 7' cut. With a 22 mower mounted on tractor and cutter flat on ground, two people could quite easily lift it to the raised position. If one pulled the pins at the pivot points of a 22 mower, I'm sure I could put it in the back of a pickup by myself as 3 pieces. The A-23 is very heavy, most folks would call it too heavy for these little tractors.

If you mount an A-22 mower from a Super A on an A, you will probably need to modify the mount back at drawbar a bit to fit around the drawbar mount. I've forgotten but it could be as simple as using washers for shims.
