I just purchased a MF 300 that from what I understand was one of the last ones off the production line in very good condition. It came with 4 heads, and one of the heads is a rigid bean/grain head (first time combine so may be using wrong term) Anyways what Im hoping to do is harvest red clover seed for cover cropping, and at least around here a lot of people recommended swathing and then using a pickup head. On the 300 it has what I remember a single hydraulic line on the right to help with the flex head or something. And what Im wondering is if it has a 2nd hydraulic return line or if it could be easily added to run a hydraulicly driven dummy pickup head, I saw one at auction and thought maybe I could mount it to the rigid head after removing all the other components off it, as I wouldn't be using as already has a flex head. Any thoughts or inputs on the idea? I know tractors etc, but never touched a combine till when I went over this to buy it. Any help would be great, thanks!
