A sickle bar mower, like this Maschio, is easy on the tractor. It doesn't come close to maxing out the horsepower of subcompact tractor. It's a great mower for trimming and cutting underneath things. While a Sickle Bar Mower is primarily used for cutting hay, I hope you've seen some of their other uses of this versatile mower. Check out Agfolks.com for this and other Maschio products!
