[QUOTE="Texasmark, post: 1592026, member: 27848"] I think I'm getting the gist of this conversation. "Rope" apparently means what happens when raking long stemmed/leafed crops with a parallel/roll bar/whatchamacallit JD 500 or 600 series as an example. Simple solution. Make your rope and come back on the next pass with your tedder and scatter it just to be raked back up again after getting what drying you can get on that pass. I saved some nice spring hay that would otherwise have been junk by just keeping it rolling...spent all day pass after pass. Rakes and tedders don't require much hp so using my Branson 2400 all it really cost me was time and being retired, I have enough to get my farming done. I got my tedder, a Murray from ASC shipped to my farm motor freight. Not your Cadillac of rakes but not priced like one either. I modified mine....took the wheels completely off because I couldn't get the 5*ish slant I wanted with them in the way. It's a 2 basket 3 pt and doesn't need them anyway. [/QUOTE]
