 Topic: Mowing grass with my Allis Sickle mower video
Posted: 15 Aug 2011 at 7:54am |
Took this video yesterday while mowing some grass down in a field that hasn't had a crop in 2 years. Used my 59 D17 and Allis model 80T sickle mower. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qODwSGkhZg

Jeff I would love to watch the video of your antique mower in operation. Can you post?

You don't really have to be smart if you know who is!

Those 80 series mowers could really do the job. We did not sell too many since they came out near the end of our dealership. They were really good though.
Good Luck!

I could but I won't.
Turn yor search filter off in Goole settings and you will find them.
Plenty of "Lawn Mowing" videos.

The universal answer to all questions is yes, how much do you want to spend?

Which worked better, the 80t or the 80r. Or was there a reason for each type.

We have the 80R, it has been completely rebuilt about 5 years ago by the old man, when he could walk, I have never used a better mower. And, yes, we really would like to see videos of your mower in action !!!!!

Lloyd,
Never had that type.
It looks to be doing the job.
I have this one but you have to go alot slower.
