Trying my hand at putin up Hay this year. Have about 20 acres of brome,Alfa,clover mix. The swather is a 9 footer and Ive read, reread and familiarized myself with it the best I can without actually running it. Now I Know Experience is tons better than manual reading. So looking for those experienced people that can pass on some of those hints and pointers in running this thing.

Thankyou

Scott

Keep the head bushing well greased. Also make sure that you have the weight adjusted evenly on the skid plate, or it will wear unevenly and cause the machine to cut unevenly. Mine had a skid plate that was 75% on one end and worn through on the other end because the previous owner had never checked the adjustment. Also check to be sure that the reel teeth do not hit the cutterbar. Mine was out of adjustment there, as well.
