Planning a refurb on the Hesston 1110 mower conditioner cutter bar and have settled, for now, on standard
guards - vs stub guards. Just to many rocks and obstacles in our newer fields that would probably wreck stub
guards. Maybe in a few years stub guards or perhaps a discbine.... ;-)
With that.....
Standard guards - anyone using adjustable hold down clips? I notice they are standard equipment on New - New
Holland 488 haybines. I can't find where Hesston ever offered adjustable hold down clips for standard guards
- only stub guards.
Do they work, are they a pain in the buttox - what's the good, bad, ugly on adjustable hold down clips for
standard mower conditioner double guards?
Also - Hesston use to offer a bar with an end on it such you could fit it over the end of a standard guard
and bend it back into shape. Anyone used such a bar (or similar) with success vs adjustable guards and/or a
BFH to get the sickle sections and ledger surface to come together again.
Thanks - and glad to see my friend SJ didn't somehow wreck the YT site earlier and it's back online...
