    oil in the bed ,oil in both gearboxes,conditioner rotor bearings,check the discs are tight there is a nut on the other end of the shaft which the disc bolts on can strip the threads throwing the disc off the machine, the hub and housing under the disc is about €350,also check the conditioner rotor belts round here they are about €80 a set,obviously run the machine,if you do buy it sometimes turning left at speed with the mower raised can cause it lift the l/h side.

    Oil under the bed and gearbox, shake the discs from side to side should very little or no rocking in them turn the disc on one end of the bed and the one on the opposite end should spin nearly at the same time. If it has a gyro head check for oil leaks and play in the shafts. The long pto shaft from the drawbar to the gearbox can be prone to wear.Rust on the bed,leaking lift rams, missing conditioner tines and the belts for the conditioner as they are expensive. They're a good mower is the one you're looking at in limerick.
