Allis B at Work in Louisiana

Obviously this pasture got out of control this summer. The Allis B and the DR Mower went through this grass and thicker grass than this with ease.

Once I get this under control someone may want to cut it for hay.

Wayne,
Make sure you keep the radiator clean and blow it out from the backside occassionally, even with the screen lots of stuff still gets in it.

You could not give me another piece of DR junk. My dad got a DR string trimmer years ago and all I ever did was work on it from day one. I will never own any thing that company makes and will not tell people that they make good stuff because they only make junk. Plus your tractor will handle a good old pull brush hog so why pay for fuel twice. Sorry but I hate DR junk

I can understand that, but I think they got this one mostly right. I sort of thought just like you about DR before operating this mower. If you notice the woods belly mower under the tractor, I use it once a week for maintaining the lawn. With the pull behind I do not have to remove it to cut the pasture twice a year. I can slow the tractor down and have full power on the mower.

Good idea. I will do that after each cutting.

Ya the DR string trimmer has a plastic carb on it and to keep it running you have to replace the float bowl once a year at $50 each. Plus it had a lot of other problems to boot. When it ran I loved it but keeping it running was a full time job and just not worth all the time it takes to do so
