One problem with lifting a rotary cutter, is they stick way out in back, so a lot of weight is quite a ways back away from the 3 point hitch. This makes the actual weight a lot harder to lift. This may be a problem "if" you actually want to "lift" the cutter. BUT, just to use the cutter, you really only need to lift the front of the cutter, and you shouldn't have any problems with that. Make sure your dealer puts cat. 1 lift pins on the cutter you buy, as most of these bigger cutters come with cat. 2 pins. Can you get your dealer to being the cutter out, and let you see how well your tractor will lift it? OR, take your tractor to the dealer to do the same? Sorry, i can't give you a better answer, Robert Follow Ups: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: What if you put a big rotary cutter on a small tractor?
