Implement what is it ?

I'll be darned, never would have thought of that, the chain was a tip that its powered by something, beyond that, I just had no clue.
 
Just like rrlund said. It is a pick up head for a old gehl chopper. It is actually laying on it face or the front where the pick up reel is. If you look at it real close it will have two half moon latches that slip over brackets on the chopper & then you just lean it back on the feeder house on the chopper, put in a couple bolts to hold it in place, put a drive chain on & you are ready to go. I never minded putting on what we called The Hay Head. But putting on the Corn Head well that was a different story. When you got done with that you were happy if you still had all your fingers. rrlund have you ever mounted a corn head? Gerald
 
Because what rrlund said in his post, my dad had two Gehl choppers. He bought a new one in the middle 50s with both a hay and corn head. A few years later he bought a used Gehl chopper with just a hay head so he wouldn't have to change heads each year. Attached is a picture of the one with the corn head. Al

Not on the Gehl,but on a New Holland of that vintage. We had a Gehl that had a direct cut head and it had that same wheel. It's a dead giveaway that that's a Gehl head.
 
Just to add, do any of you remember the posthole digger corn heads on the gehl choppers? We had one brfore going to IH 15 Chopper
 
Yep gehl pickup head. I have a corn head with the augers on it, around here they were called weed winders. I still use a FH 83,FH84 to feed my animals. Would like to find a direct cut head for either one or a direct cut head for a FH188 gehl chopper.
