Took in on trade a LMC/Lowery brand 7 ft cutter. Man this thing is a heavy beast of a cutter. The massey 265 wants to ride wheelies with it on there. Time for about 400# of front weight to be added.
If your looking at one of these know ahead of time its going to take a good sized tractor to use it. It is nothing like the 7 ft woods we were using behind a 50 hp tractor with no FEL or added front weights.

Yeah, my 6' BH46(?), which has extra plate steel welded on the deck, has to weight well over 1,000 lbs. When you start levering that weight further back it starts to become a LOT heavier!

Someone locally was selling a used 7' Woods tow-behind ($4k). I think they claimed one needed at least a 60 hp tractor. Pretty sure that my NX5510 could pull this around, and a 7' cut shouldn't be a problem either. A 3pt 7-footer, however, is, for sure, a whole different animal!
