how would you set up a tractor with a narrow front and fasthitch to use a haybine or similar? especially with a hydro swing model? lets use the 400 as an example. running over cut and conditioned hay is not a desired occurence
I think i have the fast hitch part figured out. Have a drawbar extension plate made that will bolt to the fh drawbar and hitch to the implement just as the OE hitch extension that comes with it would.
I am not sure how to negotiate the narrow front. My dad has used a narrow front to cut hay before, but that was a simple mower. with today's one step machines, seems that any hay run over does not dry or pick up the same for baling.
the 400 would be a backup tractor, but it would be nice to be prepared versus scrambling to beat the weather or need a welding shop on the weekend when they've gone fishing! Oh and keeping the narrow front is what we want.
thanks
