'50s era Sickle Bar Mower

[snohobigdad]

Good morning all,
Lovely day in the Pacific Northwest. I am the process of resurrecting a sickle bar mower. I am looking for a source / copy of an owner's manual.

I am also looking for ideas, pictures, etc on how to attach the mower to a tractor with a 3pt hitch or drawbar. I have a JD 2720 and a Ford 640.

Any and all input is greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Jim

Model #5 . Remove pivoting flat bar that contains numerous holes & wire rope pulley then insert 3 pt draft pins in the bolt holes.
