[QUOTE="HayDr, post: 1678647, member: 40581"] Most disc mowers are designed to mow above 4 mph. If you mow at slower speeds the crop loads up doesn't clear the cutterbar & the top hat the brings the hay around into the end support or grass board. As mentioned if the top hat is not functioning properly the crop drags up on the end supports and is not cleared from new crop being mowed. Be happy you have a heavy crop and adjust your speed accordingly. Sharp blades work best as well. Blades with the ends rounded off will still cut but can cause buildup issues as well. Kuhn is a fine MFG and their products work well around the world. [/QUOTE]
