FREE 👍 BATWING MOWER! Is it too farm gone? YOU DECIDE! Will it ever run again??
What happens here
After cleaning, perform a final, comprehensive inspection of the entire bush hog. Measure its width (in this case, 16 feet). Re-examine all hydraulic lines, cylinders, motors, and the structural integrity of the main frame and wings. Identify all parts that require replacement or repair, particularly leaking hydraulic cylinders and degraded hoses. Evaluate the extent of rust and any previous repairs (e.g., welded patches). Based on this thorough assessment, weigh the cost and effort of repairs against the value of a new implement. Consider if the hydraulic pump mounting bracket needs custom fabrication to fit your tractor.
Goal: Make an informed decision on whether to repair or replace the bush hog.
