I spent many an hour watching my Dad and Uncle cut grain with an IH binder and W4. We had both steel and rubber tired drive wheel ones. For transport there were two rubber tired wheels that slipped onto each side near the bull (or drive) wheel. The tonque was then put into its transporting spot 90 degrees from the position used when cutting. In addition to the adjustments, there is of course, a lever to engage/disengage the bull (or drive) wheel. Shocked many acres of grain in my day. We ALWAYS put a cap onto seven bundles stacked in a circular fashion. Dad and Uncle Paul NEVER wanted rain to fall onto the heads of grain, hence a well placed cap over the seven standing sheaves. Most ALL farmers did it that way in my neck of the woods in Pa.(NE part) but have seen many w/o a cap which made my Dad/Uncle cringe and wonder why.
