I dont think you could ever pull it out from the top unless maybe you welded somthing to it with a slide hammer or somthing.

If you have to replace a bearing you should check condition of the gear teeth, maybe on all the gears if you find a broken tooth.

Kuhn claims they have a shoulder machined in the assembly that is tight enough to keep twine out, but I don't know. Often bearing and seal problems are caused by getting twine wrapped tight under the blade carrier. If there is a bad bearing in the cutterbar I think you can access it by removing the cutter head as I said above. We are actually ahead for the year here in SC.

Hey, Marvin, hope you got enough rain there in GA to keep Hotlanta happy. Posted: Wed 10:25 am Post subject: Re: Kuhn disc mower I have asked on this site numerous times and never got a reply. I have a gmd77 that needs a bearing also. Posted: Wed 7:20 am Post subject: Re: Kuhn disc mower If you don't already have it I would skip it. Great care must be taken to keep the cutterheads marked so they can be replaced and still be in time. If you have to replace many gears it cheaper to but a new cutterbar and then you have the joy of possibly worrying about the gearbox. The rest of the cutterheads will have to be removed and checked also. On the Kuhn each cutterhead is removed from the top and AFAIK repairs are pretty straightforward butthe parts,especially gears will be costly.

Posted: Tue 4:53 pm Post subject: Kuhn disc mowerĪnyone ever rebuilt the cutter bar on a kuhn cutter? I think it is a gmd66 or something like that has 6 spinners.
