FM-62 or FM-78

WoodMaxx FM-62 (55-inch) runs 24–45 PTO hp with hammers; FM-78 (70-inch) runs 30–65. The 35C fits both, with FM-78 only 0.1 over its minimum on the HST rating. The comparison below sets them side by side.

Cut versus tractor width

New Holland lists 65.4 inches outside the rear tires. FM-78’s 70-inch cut covers that width; FM-62’s 55-inch and Farmry LFS61’s 61-inch cuts leave the wheel tracks outside the cut unless the mower is offset.

Close to the minimum

A published minimum is the power the maker says the mower needs to work as rated. At 30.1 PTO hp the HST 35C has almost no margin over FM-78’s 30; expect to slow down in heavy growth, and ask WoodMaxx whether it recommends the smaller FM-62 instead.

Lift

New Holland’s February 2026 brochure lists 1,596 lb 24 inches behind the ball ends (2,067 lb at the ends) for both models. WoodMaxx FM-78H, the heaviest attachment here at 968 lb, is under it; check the quoted attachment’s weight with its shaft and the front ballast the dealer recommends.

Farmry HFS87: 87-inch cut, Category I and II

Farmry rates the HFS87 at 30–85 hp without saying whether that is PTO or engine power, lists Category I and II, cuts 87 inches and weighs 1,299 lb with the shaft. The New Holland WORKMASTER 35C’s 31 / 30.1 PTO hp and 35 engine hp are both inside that range, though PTO power is only 0.1 hp above the minimum. Its published lift at 24 inches, 1,596 lb, is only 297 lb more than the mower’s weight, so weigh the complete mower and check ballast first. Its gearbox rating, 50 hp, is not below this tractor’s PTO power. The 87-inch cut is 3 inches wider than Land Pride’s FM2584. Farmry’s page listed it at $4,499 on November 14, 2026.

Farmer-Helper FH-EF standard-duty mowers

Farmer-Helper rates its standard-duty FH-EF mowers by PTO power, all to 45 PTO hp with a 45-hp gearbox: the EF95 (37-inch cut) from 15, the EF105 (41-inch) from 16 and the EF125 (48-inch) from 20. They carry Y-blades for grass and light brush. The New Holland WORKMASTER 35C’s 31 / 30.1 PTO hp is inside all three. Its published lift at 24 inches, 1,596 lb, carries even the 390-lb EF125 with 1,206 lb to spare. Betstco listed them at $1,462, $1,547 and $1,632 on November 14, 2026, with the PTO shaft included.
