THE BUYING PERSPECTIVE
Know before you order.
- The product page states 20–45 PTO horsepower. The FH-EF manual (June 2025) gives the 20-PTO-hp minimum and a 45-hp gearbox rating; it states no separate tractor maximum, so this site uses the page’s 45 PTO hp.
- Cutting width 48 inches; overall width 52 inches.
- Blades: 36 Y-blades; an 18-blade mulch (hammer) set is optional.
- Weight: page 390 lb, manual 383 lb; this site retains 390 lb.
- Price: $1,632 sale against a $1,920 regular price on Betstco’s page on November 14, 2026.
- Check three-point geometry, lift at the implement load center, front ballast and PTO shaft clearance on the tractor.
