[QUOTE="robert, post: 817343, member: 9171"] Personally, I'd stay away from the wheel rakes, they either wind the hay into a rope inpenetrable to light and heat or they make a gobby windrow that is a pain in the rear to bale. I'm thinking you will be working in similar conditions and with similar grass species to us in upstate NY, a good tedder and a sweep type rake like the millerpro 1150 or 1350 and you can make dry 1st cut hay in 3 or 4 days easily. Make them run the 644 / 648 baler, if they have bale command check the number of bales made, check the main drive chain and sprockets, the condition of the pick up reel will tell you a lot about how the baler was used!
