I used my loader valve for the tilt cylinder. I don't have a loader on this though so a third function line would be required with a loader. They are also available with a manual tilt that doesn't use hydraulics but that would be a pain to use unless you're doing a big flat hay field.
It is very handy if you have areas that are wet and hard to access with a mower. Just perfect size for a BX
Honestly.. I'm thinking for fields where ideally you'd use a Flail Mower or Rough Cut.. this works just as good and it's half the price. Tons of people call me saying they have acres of land that they just want to knock down so this would be ideal.
That is what this is really for. Especially if you're cutting for hay. Lower hp draw then a flail also, but at over $5k with tax it was quite a bit more then a flail.
Yeah I just saw the price of them… back on the flail train unless I can pick up an ole sickle mower on Kijiji.
When I was looking, all the old ones were too big and heavy for a BX. Should have bought it the year before when it was $1000.00 less. Good luck finding one or a flail.
