This type of cutting bar is not much good on grass, it is designed for hedges and brush work. you need close fitting knives for grass.

Like any new machine it takes a while to get used to it.

It seems like the best version of the sickle bar would be on a 3-point hitch on the back of a tractor. That way the cuttings would fall in a way that they wouldn't stack up on the deck of the attachment. It seems like a good idea would be to place a second bar in front of the deck so you could cut horizontally in front and vertically on the side with one designed like this one.

Problem with that is judging by the video he has to constantly look at the sickle bar. If it is behind you that wouldn't work so well. Edit: Would it even work on the back of a tractor? It doesn't stick out to much. So depending on how wide the tractor is, the tractor might push the branches away from the cutter. And if it works, wouldn't the branches still fall on the implement?

The clue is in the name - its a mower and is meant for mowing grass. You can see at the end of the cutter bar where the swath board is meant to go that pulls the grass away from the cut edge. They are also not meant to be run vertically. It also needs to be lubed - the constant chattering noise is metal on metal and it wont last long like that. Also it would be worth putting a stay bar between the top of the cutter and the body whilst transporting . The constant flexing will just stress and crack the cutter bar. You can get knife segments with a plain edge or a serrated edge but i wouldnt want to cut anything wider than about a fingers diameter. Tractor and flail is what should be used on side vegetation and the brash will fall away behind the machine as you travel.

First couple of videos I watched of Andrew was him buying and working on cheap boats. I thought he was an old man for some reason, lol and I thought he was nuts. But, when I caught one of his work and repair videos I was hooked. When he buys used equipment, I know the best content is coming.

Timen, Andrew, I allways enjoy your videos , espacially when you'r fixing or finding a way to make things more comfortable for your special use. I have a metal basket (five foot wide) attached to my mini excavator and at the front side of this basket is also a sickle bar mower mounted. We, in Holland (Europe) have a lot of these baskets (maaikorf) and they are used to clean out ditches from plants and grass. I cut the other side of the ditch, cut the bottom and then the side, where the excavator is standing. All the stuff, that is mowed, falls in the basket and then I let it fall in my dumper. As I have bushes and trees on the other side of my ditches and the branches are hanging over, I am now rebuilding an old chainsaw for mounting at my excavator and cutiing these branches, so that they don't bather me when I"m driving my tractor. I took the combustion motor off the saw and I'm gone drived it with a hydraulic motor.

Well that's probably the best way. XD First try it normal, then with some force, then with more force, and then with a LOT more force and if that doesn't work, well you know, there is always a way. Just like with the tool expectations meme. Andrew could have made that one since its just like he does the things. XD

nice piece of machinery to the Camarata collection! makes life easier. Some oil on the sickle bar helps it too. Our ones on the farm seem to live longer and work a lil quieter.

Andrew, I think this is a wise investment, help keep trails a little wider. My opinion just hope you don’t stumble across a hornets nest with your window up. Take care , just sitting down here in Texas waiting on more of your great videos, Now on to the next job.👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Andrew, your suppose to grease up the teeth and the sickle bar quite often...I know this being using those for many years on the farm. But we never once used them to cut vertically like that lol On a tractor like I use the sickle bar you cant put it in the vertical position like that because the PTO won't allow it to be used that way. These sickle bars are only supposed to be used for cutting grass. Not trees. lol
@climer5882 жыл бұрын
Yep. sickle bar worked ok for hay till disc mowers came along. Discs are night to day better. We used to carry around used oil for the sickle bar and had a favorite rock on the edge of the field to replace the blades when they broke off or fell off. Constant maintenance and repair on those things. I was glad to see them gone. Productivity went way up.

You're missing the point, this particular unit was built specifically to do what he's doing. It's not just a grass cutter he's using to cut brush.
@Blazer02LS2 жыл бұрын
This one isn't a mowing sickle it's basically designed as a huge hedge trimmer for just this type of use. Yep, the older machines with the pitman stick could only cut flat. Then they developed machines that used the pitman crank pin as a pivot and you could cut at angles.

@@climer588 yes you are right! They are made good but they don’t break a lot..just the good thing is, is that when they do break they are easy to get cheap parts for and easy to fix in the field!

VERY TRUE, have seen more than a few legs get amputated because the animal doesn't know that the bar is a "bad thing" to get near.

We gave these away for free on craigslist years ago. I wouldn't want to have to touch it. It's demonstrably worse than the spinning death drums most skid steer brush mowers use.

one piece of round stock or angle iron welded or bolted straight up parallel to the sickle from the front where the letter E is, would change this 1000% since it kick the incoming cuts

That's what I was thinking. A flail that you can use horizontally and vertically. Plus it would "Chew" that stuff right up.

True. Sickle bar was never meant as a brush cutter. Flail mowers at least have some give to them.

He's a one man army. I think that's why most of us respect the work he puts in. If he has a second set of hands on a job, I figure he's decided there's literally no other option. For a single person operation, I think (for the most part lol) he follows the rules pretty damn well.
