Belly mower

[Williamb]

Can anyone tell me what type of belly mower this is and is it worth anything?

Thanks

appears to be a Danco/IH C2 Mower, 42 " cut brush hog type, missing the pto drive pulley in the pics, decent mower, if it has the clutch type main drive pulley, make sure that works correctly, cross pieces in the middle of the deck look to be added on

I have a C2 which Tim said it looks to be that family. The very nice all-purpose mower for lawns and very high thick stuff. Much more versatile than a finish mower.

The only things I do not like are: the overrun clutch is loud when it working. Much louder than the woods 42.

Also, the parts while still available are expensive. I had to replace the blades. The PO did a very poor job sharpening them and they were ground to different sizes and ended up too out of balance to save. I think they were $165 each and no one had an aftermarket blade that I could find.

If you can find someone looking for this type mower, high end 150 dollars, low enf 75 dollars.

Complete mowers wood 42 or c-2 go for much more in my area.

Thanks for the advice. The blades are in good shape, the gearbox seems alright, it did work a long time ago before ztr 72 inch entered the picture.

I got one earlier this year, I really like it I have the C-3 Finish type mower on the Lo-Boy for the lawn at my folks place and I put this one on the old Cub to keep the pasture under control since we don't have livestock any more. It's also really handy when we have too much rain and the lawn gets away from me because it can cut tall grass in second gear that the Lo-Boy struggles with in first. TJ
