I’m working on a project mower, I picked up a New Holland 914A 72” side discharge deck on Craigslist for $300.00. I have the hydraulics on the front to lift the deck and I have what is needed to run the Kubota rotary broom (non K connect model), minus the auxiliary oil cooler, the problem is the broom runs 328 RPM, with a high torque low RPM motor, and the mid mount PTO on the New Holland tractors run 2000 RPM. I’ve done some searching for another hydraulic motor, but am also interested to see where Kubota pulls the power off the unit for the K connect PTO. I bought the female half of the quick hitch for a rotary broom and have fabricated brackets to fasten that on the back of the deck, I also have bought bigger gauge wheels, I am going to put two in the front and two in the back, the plan is to have the gauge wheels on the ground with the lift in the float position and just push the deck with the RTV. Any thoughts, or insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Pete
