Ahh, the sweet sound of an old Deere. Brings back memories of childhood and the old model D the farmer across the road had.

I could watch this for hours. Love watching the ol john deere and the sickle mower. Did a very nice job.

Been there and done that and loved it!!! Was 12 years old. Neighbor’s field of alfalfa and a 60 model John Deere. 40 cents per hour was my pay. About 1964

The bestest piece of vintage equipment's J'D 🚜🎆👏👍 ohh yeah yes ...

These are my kind of tractors these are what I growed up on

Cutting the fence/tree line was always an adventure.

Those old J-D's are tough. Half a century of service and a lot of those old things are still going strong.

Weird. I was just thinking about when the state as well as my Grandpa last used a sickle mower!! Thanks!!

Excellent video…👍

Just bought a number five sickle bar mower to save it from becoming scrap. A video on this unit would be much appreciated!

Secret to a good sickle is 3-4'' lead on the bar and a good grass board and keep it going at a good speed!

The sickle bar mower Looks like a hedge trimmer

I use an old 42 JD B and a new idea 30A sickle mower, a 4 bar John Deere hay rake and a 14t baler

My dad's outfit, '52 with #5 as well.

Upgraded to '40 with #8 with 9' bar plus a hitch to pull an #894 side rake. Pretty good load for that little tractor.

Be careful of the sickle bar. Lifting and lowering can bite the fingers

I cut a lot of hay with that setup

No telling how much hay father and grandpa cut with a sickle mower

Hey what gear do you have the tractor in while mowing?
