Now that's April it's time to start thinking about getting the hay equipment dusted off. Only problem I had with the mo-co last
year was in some spring oats. When I lower the header it tilts back on its shoes but within 100 ft the drive side would load up
with clods and loose dirt behind the sickle on the platform and not cut worth a hoot. On a regular sod hayfield it never did
this. I'm assuming it was because of the softer dirt from the spring tillage, but there must be a way to adjust it to work
properly. I have the shoes set at their highest position so the sickle is about 3" off the ground. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
