Message Board - Football: TRIPLE MOWER
12 Oct 2010 by mr wood
hi,
just wondered what triple mower people would recomend for use on a footy pitch???
obviously budgets make a huge impact and ideally like to spend less than £1000 on it if possible and used and old doesnt bother me as long at it works and in fairly good condition i m fed up of it taking a long time to do ours.
thanks

i have a national allen 68 which the club has owned for 3 seasons. it is belt driven and very cheap to run and maintain. it has a kohler 8hp engine and looks like a pile of scrap but does a superb job. downside it takes an hour to cut pitch. we paid £350 at auction. have a look on ebay. cheers andy

Saxon is slightly stronger build than Allen, but both will do a good job.
You might have to improvise mud scraper wires for a winter pitch - but it can be done.
