PLEASE NOTE: A complete Sickle Bar Mower is made up of a Bar & an Oil Bath Transmission (each with individual SKUs). The Dual Action Sickle Mower is also available for double action-simultaneous separate blade assemblies that move in equal and opposite directions for lesser vibration and better performance. Each unit also comes with adjustable skids to increase the mowing height up to 3'' off the ground. Plus, Sickle Bar Mowers save time and are extremely efficient-they consume less fuel than other mowers, require very little power, and can be operated by smaller engines, including the BCS model 710! These machines are ideal for commercial operations that value cost-effective performance.Įvery Sickle Bar Mower has its own oil bath transmission, which offers smoother operation, long life, reduced maintenance, and increased weight for climbing steep slopes. They can also be used for forage harvesting, most notably hay.
The height-adjustable sickle bar is much wider than the wheelbase, so you can easily trim along slopes, ponds, under fences, and other low-clearance places you wouldn't dare take a traditional mower. This means there's no flying debris or thrown stones. Ideal for many different tasks, the Sickle Bar is designed to slice material at its base to leave the cut material in tact. Is either trim their hedge or their pond with this before we sell it.īut the way this works where both of these are double action, and they're being driven from here.The Sickle Bar Mower, or Cutter Bar, is original to the BCS brand, and it's also one of the most popular attachments. But this mower, which unlike most of them, this mower is designed to be able to work at a 90 degree angle where you can trim your hedges, or a 45 degree down where you can go around the rim of the pond, and I think that's about what half the people around here wanna do. You can carry plenty of ground speed if you wanted to do hay in a field, there's no reason why you couldn't. Even on this little biddy tractor, you've got the same horsepower like a Ford 2000, whether it be a gas or a diesel. And it also gives you a wider spot between the guards, where you can get into a little bigger material.īesides the fact that you could do, you know, hay, just like the sickle mowers were originally designed for, you've got a five foot cut. So there's not as much stress on either piece having to move it twice the distance. On this type of system because you're moving the guards and the blades, you only have to move them half as much. Well, and as long as that kept oil in it, the wobble box did pretty good. And only the blades moved and the guard stayed rigid. And that's what did the action of the blades. And the sickle mowers had what was called a Wobble Box on it. Around here we're one of the first Hollen Hay equipment dealers around. On this type of circle mower, I grew up around hay. Unfortunately it's about 14 degrees outside, and we won't be doing any work outside today. And I think everybody here's already got a project at home that they're ready to use this for after we do this video, and we'll include a couple of those in a short video after we get this done. The weight on this is just a little over 400 pounds. Like the hoop has to be really narrow, really short. So even though it will fit a small tractor when you get into the sub-compact tractor, it really takes some special stuff back here. There's now so many of these sub-compact tractors and small tractors that were here, that they've actually designed a sickle mower to fit specifically this sub-compact tractors and small tractors. But the market for it just wasn't there until now. We've had a lot of customers over the years ask for this. We here today with a new product offering that we haven't had. All gear drive and attachments are changed with just two nuts. Quite a few attachments are available such as a brush cutter, snowblower, tiller, chipper, sickle bar mower and plows. They are very close to the old gravely like mentioned before.
