I did .. Got 45 bales of good stuff ... Condition mower ... Cut wed 9am , baled Friday 8.30 ... No rain, could have done with a wilter/muffler or even the side turner as many lads are now using

Good stuff, usually give mine a spin of the hay bob after 24 hrs, makes a Huge difference

Sorry about the chat on this thread. But do you not find the hay bob puts the nice straight wind rolls all over the place ?

We always rowed our silage with a pz version till this year when the belt snapped. Where can you get belts for them?

We have one, I think it's JF, green and yellow one, I'l turn on the desktop tomorrow as I think I have a few pictures of it on there, tis in a sorry state though. Would need all new belts, two new tires and plenty of grease

I know of one lad that took off the prongs and put yard brush heads on his and he uses it as a road sweeper.

Does the belt come with pre drilled holes?

Only go with two rows here. Cops are out in force this weather in told. 40 bales a run ain't bad when there's a few being loaded. Shifted 350 or so bales yesterday between 6am and 3pm

How do you spot a farmer on a ride on Lawnmower?

They are the ones looking backwards at the grass filling the box..
I found myself today holding open the flap and looking over my right shoulder into the box as the lawnmower was cutting like on the tractor looking back at the mower or topper.

Non farmers just drive looking straight ahead..

I was, let it grown high as leaf so when it's cut its digestable.. I'm not on of those lawnmower types that cuts when it grows a 1/4inch brigade.

On that note, I can with ease look over my right shoulder however I don't have the same flexibility if I ever have the cause to look over my left shoulder Anyone else have the same problem. I reckon it's because of thousands of hours spent in the tractor.
Apologies Mods for going "slightly" off topic :eek:

Remember when I first started working with contractor wrapping I had a crick in my neck for a fortnight, hasn't happened me since though!
