sickle bar mower
I am replacing the wood shaft on my sickle mower and need to know what color to paint it. The rest of the mower is blue and I have seen the bar painted white or blue. Not a show mower but would like it right. Thanks

Re: sickle bar mower
Just leave it natural wood!
When the pitman breaks, you'll be happy you did not waste your time painting it as you install a fresh one!

Re: sickle bar mower
I used just linseed oil on mine, kept it good looking and gave it a bit of protection

Re: sickle bar mower
I believe they were cream until about '56 when they changed to white. Ochre had been used on previous pitmans, but I believe was phased out before the Cub mower was built.
