Largest tractor with a belly mower.

[thoner7]

What’s the largest TYM OR Brandon tractor that will take a belly mower? Something with a loader and 3 point hitch too.

T264 or T25 I believe.

I'm pretty sure you're right about that. Had to stop and think if the 15 series offered one, but I don't believe so.

The 2610 offers one.

Darned. Those would be too small for me. I was hoping with for one with about 30 horse at the pto

Just for reference my JD 4320 with 48 engine HP and 40 PTO HP has a 72 inch belly mower. Now I understand that all of the 20 series at that time offered the belly mowers and I think the 4520 @ 55 HP? and the 4720 @ I think 59 HP? offered that. Now this is the 2006 time frame that I am referencing. The JD rep told me they did sell very well and they discontinued that option.

did not

Mid mount mowers are awful for anything other than mowing green lawn. If you mow dry field grass with them, the chaff and dust will choke both the operator and radiator, causing overheating. And they aren’t fun to remove every time you want to do tractor work with them. Then reinstall for mowing.

We bought an old farmhouse and 45 acres. About 30 is hay field which I plan to lease to the farmer neighbor indefinitely. But we have about 13 acres of mature woods and about 2 acres of lawn.

I’d love something big enough to haul and lift brush and logs. And mow my lawn. The problem with a 3 point mower is how long it makes the entire unit.

I saw a guy down the road with a decent sized new Holland, with a belly mower. That’s why I asked. I always wanted a TYM bc of the lack of emissions and cost

If length is the issue, get a flail mower.
