Greetings everyone
Long time tractor owner with a question that has bugged me for a long time on and I‘ve never found a good answer or a resolution.
I have two mowers for my tractor. I have a 6’ rotary cutter and a 6’ articulating flail mower with hammers.
When I setup either one of these mowers, I do so on a level concrete pad, set the height, put a stop on the 3 point lever control and set up the top pin on the hitch. What I find very frustrating mowing with either one of these setups in this rugged hilly country is that I am constantly working the 3pt height to keep the implement from digging in or riding too high and keeping a fairly consistent cut height. Always feels like I need a third hand to operate this and it forces me to mow at a snails pace. On flat ground, its not a problem, but I have hardly anything flat.
What am I missing or is just the nature of mowing with a 3pt hitch attachment?
