I agree with the majority that you will need hydraulics, but if you have a lot of fire ants in your area you will quickly discover why most in the South have gotten away from any type of sickle bar haybine. Your clutch leg will get tired from all of the backing up to clear plugs. If you tractor doesn't have live or independent pto you will become frustrated quickly trying to cut 1 acre, 40 acres would be a nightmare. I feel you would be better off finding a disc or drum mower, discbine, or even sticking to your sickle mower. A simple sickle mower will handle fire ant mounds a little better than a haybine because there is nothing behind the cutterbar to collect dirt and build up a plug. However, if fire ants aren't an issue, go for it! I cut many acres as a teen with a Hesston PT10, less noise, dust, and no flying rocks! One more thing about fire ants, after you've destroyed there home, they will move into your bales quickly. Don't leave bales on the ground long if at all.
