Gentlemen, I was rummaging around some CL sites this morning and came across a listing for a GT 14 tractor with a currently mounted Haban sickle bar mower. I couldn't believe it! This is the first pic I have ever seen of a GT 14 with a Haban sickle bar mower, let alone any sickle bar mower. I have no idea how long it has been unused, or if it is currently functional, but I was stunned to actually see one mounted on a GT 14 for sale! How common, or how rare are Haban sickle bars? How common, or how rare was this installation on a GT 14? I would like to find more info on this particular installation, and in particular how they supplied power to the bar. I have heard from a New York member the Model # 414 was made to fit GT 14s. If anyone can confirm or refute that info, it would be helpful to me. Anything (pics, manuals, installation instructions, etc.) that anyone can tell me about or point me toward to learn more about Haban sickle bar mowers, would be greatly appreciate. Here's the CL listed GT 14 with the Haban sickle bar mounted. Note the Haban sticker or decal transfer near the bottom of the unit. Rotary mower deck and front end blade included in the deal. Some Haban history I was able to locate. This was easier to find than info on the mowers.
