implement ideas for a 404

Posted by Tamara on January 04, 2005 at 11:30:10 from (209.193.71.185):

My swather died (good riddance...(green)black hole sucked up lotsa money every haying season! Plus it was almost impossible for me to work on) and I'm looking at putting my 404 in the hayfield as the main attraction (besides pulling the harrow and rake). I understand that there is a mower that attatches in front of the rear tire...that sounds pretty cool and easy on the neck and back!
I'm a rookie mechanic(the less the better) and a woman in a mans world here in WY, and everyone around here has the 'big stuff' and think I am crazy(well,duh!), but I am finding that allot of the old fashioned and simpler ways of doing things really are simpler, easier, less expensive and less agrivating!
I have about 300 acres of dryland native grass, grass/alfalfa @ about 1/2 T an acre (yes, you read it right) so, all the hay needs raked whether it was cut and windrowed or just layed down then raked.
I havent had a hay crop for a couple of years...but I want to get a start on looking for and putting together the right tools to get'r done! It could rain this spring!
So, are there any manuals that give the implement # that can be used with my tractor? Or better yet, any recomendations?
Thanks, Tamara
