I do a lot of mowing, and have never had the opportunity to time what it takes to mow one acre, Most of the land around here is not flat, and odd shapes. I am using a MF 231 with a perkins 3 cyl. diesel, and pulling a 6 ft mower. I can mow in 3 rd gear. How much time do you think it will take to mow 1 acre of flat ground? Thanks stan

Chief,a rule of thumb that's fairly accurate is width X MPH divided by 10. This will give an hourly rate. I'll guess 3 mph for your Massey's 3rd gear so theoretically you can mow 1.8 acres/hour. Tx Jim
