G'day I'm having a bit of trouble with a 6400 hesston windrower with a auger front, its uneven feeding leaving a lumpy swath. One side will bunch up in front of the auger then eventually pull through as one big slug any ideas would be much appreciated it has all new sections on the knife stub guards are old but not too bad I've adjusted the reel in close to auger would raising reel help?
 
Check the clearance between the auger and
the strippers under the auger, could be a
bearing on the auger too allowing the gap
to change and the auger not to move the
grass properly.
 
couple things I have seen causing this,,,
the auger flighting has a wear lip on the back side of the flighting, I use a grinder to remove it

not feeding enough material into it,, can you speed up travel?

something restricting it,, bent up floor tin ect

reel mounted in the wrong holes on one side so it is not mounter "straight"

broken teeth or tube in reel
cnt
