<br />lowest bidder, and an explanation is listed below:
<br />1. The New Holland 5610S Tractor has a hydraulic pump capacity of 9.7 GPM. Our
<br />specifications ask for a minimum of 18 GPM. This tractor will be running a 96" rear mower
<br />and a 88" side mower, therefore it needs to have a minimum of 18 GPM to run effectively.
<br />2. A 96" rear mower is specified, a 90" rear mower was bid. This would cut down on efficiency.
<br />3. A bid was not received for a 88" right hand mower. Using a comparable price of another
<br />bidder of $11,000 would not make this the low bid received.
