Yep, I bought one new when the first came out. Kept it for a few years, and found the early models had too small a tires and the wheel bearings were lame. But I loved the ability to suck two windrows together with one pass, with this 13.5 width. So I traded it in on a new one with the better tires, and bearings. Wheels are a poor feature, but if you look after them, they will work. Another thing to keep an eye on is the nylon roller balls, that run in the cam track. Don�t allow these roller balls to wear away to nothing. Swap them out once they start to exhibit wear. If they wear down too much, the cam track also seems to wear, and they can pop out of the track. Many grease fittings to keep up, and keep the sliding beam well oiled so it goes in and out easy. You will love the way the hay is stood up , two rows , side by side, and the air flows through, and drys well. Doesn�t wind the hay into rope.
In the picture the rake Tedder is set to Ted the hay out. I usually spread out two rows with one pass, stretching the beam out to the middle position. I traded my rake tedder off to get a Vee rake because I started cutting hay with a 12 foot swather, and the rake/tedder wouldn�t put two rows into one with that width of cut. And I didn�t need the Tedder action anymore, because I had gone to doing wet wrapped silage bales. Good luck, you are going to love this machine. Bruce

Today's Featured Article - The Engine Rebuild Kit - by Curtis Von Fange. I always liked engine rebuild kits. They have all the replacement parts for overhauling an engine without going to the store to get gaskets, special measuring tools, or miscellaneous parts. They come neatly packaged, clean and tidy. But it's important not to let that packaging lull you into a false sense of security. The appearance of matching sleeves, pistons, rings, and bearings can cause frustration and agony if not properly measured and installed in a workshop environment. Following c
