 Topic: How many of these are still out there
Posted: 19 Sep 2010 at 7:53pm |
Here is a picture of my 172 A-C mower, its not a real good picture but I got one the other day when it was behind my 19. Just wonderd how hard it is to get blades for. Mower does a great job it mowes like a finish mower.

I have one in southern Illinois. I have the laminated tires and it was originally a hand crank for the height. We did away with that and put a cylinder on it. Always shedded and mows great!! Ryan

I bought a 172 earlier this year from Michael Crowe - has the original hand ratchet adjuster on one side I use to set minimum height then I put an Allis one-way cylinder on the other side to raise it. Run it behind my Series III D17. Works great and as said it leaves a much nicer cut than a brush hog. Blades are still available thru AGCO I understand...I hear they are higher priced but much better blades. Mike
