Hope you got a manual along with that thing as it has alot of grease points and it loves to be greased. Thats the same head as on my SP1495 and weighs around 3600. Hope the rolls are good as they are about 800 each and take about a 3 days to change if its not rusty.
Check your wobble reels for end play. If theres to much a set of shims is about 10 bucks. Make sure the chain tensions are correct and your reels speed and drive belt is where you want it.
Make sure you catch the 4th grease fitting above & behind the sproket on the sickle wobble drive. Set your head float as near correct as possible. I think its about 70 lbs.
They can say what they may want but thats a good machine and you can cut 100 acres a day with it easy and it will do a job that is far better job and leave your hay in better condition than the best discbine built today. Good luck and happy cutt'in....
