Simplicity Sickle Bar

[Guest]

I was to an auction yesturday and bought what appears to be a Simplicity sickle bar attachment. It seem to be complete but I'm still not 100% sure it's Simplicity. There are no markings on it however it has the original paint and it's darn close to Simplicity orange and the drive pully seems to line up closely to the pully on my landlord. I have no idea how it attaches to the tractor. Does anyone have a manual or close up picture of one so I can be sure it's for my tractor?

Simplicity and AC sickle bar mowers were made by Haban Mfg. of Kenosha, Wisconsin. Haban also made these mowers for John Deere and perhaps other brands. Haban makes Deere's snowblowers as well.

So it is possible that your mower was made for another make tractor. One sure way to tell is to look at the front mounting holes. If they line up to your Simplicity then it will problably work. I have a sickle bar for my B-112 AC. My mower will not fit on the newer models, such as my 712 due to the footrests. I do not know if Simplicity offerd the Haban mowers on the newer models. I do not have any books. I could take some pictures and post them on this site if you still need help. Let me know. Les
