[QUOTE="millstreaminn, post: 390171, member: 4844"] The first thing I did was take off all the original guards and put on stub guards. Stub guards don't mow as clean as the others but they don't plug either. Also with stub guards you can somewhat mow over a windrow (ending a field) without plugging. As far as opening a field, I take my first pass with the haybine around the outside of the field going counter clockwise. Next trip is clockwise straddling your first cut windrow. You only knock down the hay in the tire tracks on your first pass but the haybine will still cut them fairly well because the knocked down hay will be pointing into the cutterhead on the second pass. Confused? :lol: You've run a self propelled, you'll have no problem with a pull behind. The neck does usually get a bit crimped though... [/QUOTE]
