Bought a used Alamo74 cutter. One of the features is dual rear laminated, bushhog type trailing height gauge wheels. It’s also has the roller bar.
The roller bar has some perforations from rust where it was sitting on the ground. Question, do you really need the roller bar with wheels? Patch the roller with strip of flat bar? Set the roller bar 1-2” above cutting height as back up?
Driveline shop might be able to re-tube the roller if I could source the right diameter pipe?
The flail knives have been recently replaced with heavier flailmaster cutters. Runs smooth. Haven’t found belt side cutter bar bearing zerk yet.
Maintenance tips for this cutter would be appreciated. Viable alternative to rotary cutter? Property is beautiful but tough.
