Well I started working on it a bit yesterday and found some more parts needing repair. It may get alittle more expensive but I will certainly make a video on it.
This is basically a Lely cutter bar design. Of course Lely doesn't exist anymore. I'm not sure if Vermeer bought the cutter design or if they just license it from them.
Jess Morris Thank you this is great to know. ! I looked them up just now and they look identical. Who ever designed them first really designed them well! The individual modules or pods are cast and well built.
Greetings from Ireland, Great Video 😊. I hope you will do the repair video. On the online auction site was there much information about the history of the mower?
Hi sullivan4610, here is the exact description from the auction. Up for auction is a Vermeer TM700 Mower Condition/ pull type mower . Machine looks good with good sheet metal. Bar, Bearings, Hats and blades are all in good shape. Sheet metal is all straight and in tact.... All the cylinders are working properly. Good tires. Good tarp. No leaks. Cutter was used in this hay season and is ready to go back to work... Please see the pictures attached in the viewing section. Feel free to call with any questions you may have. It’s funny reading this now after getting it home. But that is the risk you take purchasing online with out seeing it in person. Ill keep you updated
You reached up behind the tractor and moved the 3-pt hitch but the video didn’t show it. Is this feature something extra on your WM75 cause I’ve looked on my tractor and don’t see a control to work the 3-pt from outside.
Ber Rou I don’t have an outside control but there is an option to have one. It’s mechanical and I talk about it in the Lift O Matic video about the three point
Looks like you got a good deal and a perfect fit for your operation. I would enjoy seeing your repair videos. Repair videos can be very helpful.

@@CenTexAg probably still cheaper than buying new. All of my equipment is used. Just can't afford new.
Nice buy
They do have some good stuff at a decent price.

I bought a Vermeer bale processor on auction time from Sullivan’s about 4 years ago,
That’s a Great buy. I’m starting to look for some used hay equipment. I’m glad you posted the video I’ll check out the auction site.
"Thumbs up" for repair videos!

Thank you for your reply. I will go back and watch it again now that you remind me, I remember.
Are you planning on selling your other mower?
No it’s a great back up mower
Oh yea, post a video of the repairs you make to it.
Dave Miller will do
