New Hollander Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 (edited) Bought the butterfly mower set to put it on the Marge Models T7.315 HD. For a toy the quality is excellent, as a model it needs some small improvements, but that shouldn´t be a problem. Attachment to the tractor is Siku/Britains style so the front 3-point doesn´t fit nice to the tractor. Probably going to screw it off and glue the hitch points of the triangle to the front mower. Rear mower doesn´t fit to the tractor. Same problem, but I leave it folded up on the shelf due to limited space. The mower is sitting on the storage stands and that is about right for transportation height, so no problem for me. The Britains linkage can be taken off and a 3rd point can be made with a Dremel. Comparing it to the USK butterfly mowers, the USK mowers are narrower and have swathing belts. This Britains mower size and the hp of the tractor are a better match imo and I didn´t want swathing belts. Detailing on the Britains mowers is ok, not much less then USK. Price for the Britains mowers was 15 and 30 euro´s, good value for money. Edited April 25, 2022 by New Hollander 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Rather than start a new thread - do the rear mowers fit ok on a UH linkage - the old they used before switch to more realistic 3 point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
