Does anybody know what kind of brush cutter this is?

[HanknotFrank]

The seller does not know the brand name for this 5 foot cutter.He says it is about 30 years old. Does anybody recognize it? Thanks.

Oops.

Kinda looks like a Howse. Central Tractor Farm & Family branded them back then as well.

ok, thanks.

Howse, I had one for about 30 years and used it every year and then sold it for twice what I paid for it.

Since the Howse brand was mentioned I've seen quite a few of them on Craigslist. DO you think a 32 hp Jubilee would power a 5 foot one adequately? Could it even handle a 6 foot cut? Thanks.

It looks to be in good shape and well designed, it doesn't matter too much what brand it is, most of the parts are generic, and readily available. When we
bought our Bush Hog (brand) I thought we were buying the Cadilac of brush cutters, But it's a poorly designed PO$!

5 foot is perfect for a Jubilee. 6 foot is better suited to a 40-45 hp tractor in my experience.
