I'm thinking about buying a 7580 to mow my yard.
Did woods ever make a belly mower for one?,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A 7580 is a just a TAD big for cutting grass.

It all depends on how big your yard is. You may have to mount the mower on the front of the 7580, maybe a 15' bat wing mower.

The articulation would make it nice to get up around trees... as long as there's not a branch for the first 14 or 15 feet. 30.5 - 32 diamond tread tires for a lawnmower, right?

Ah, Larry, you do realize that a 7580 is a 220HP articulating 4 WD tractor?

Darrel, actually it's only 186 HP. Probably better not to have duels, may tear up the yard more.

No longer do you have to worry about mowing around the house. You can just pull the house out of the way! LOL.

John, I think we're both right on the HP, because I am pretty sure they are 220 engine HP, 186 PTO HP, and 150 some to the ground. They lose a lot between the engine and the ground. Either way, it would make a mowin machine that could shred small trees!! Darrel

I would like to find a belly mower for my 7580 and 4w305 sure would get the grass cut a lot faster than my Husqvarna 48 inch. LOL

Yeah,,I think a "B" would do fine on a 550 acre spred!,,and the 7580 would be JUST the mower to have so a guy wouldn't have to spend ALL his time in the seat mowing!!!
