    You get better bales with bigger rows plus it saves you paying for a man to come in with a rake. You do it at your own time also rather than waiting on someone

    Have a 7ft mower and a haybob here. Seriously thinking of getting a single rotor rake as well. Would save a lot of compaction if baler didn't have to be going up and down the field every 12 ft. Plus much better bales after rake than haybob. Was that one expensive Reggie?

    Got that one for 2000. Got it right. Leaves no lumps like a haybob as it only moves it yo one side rather than flinging it out the back. Less rows mean less twists on the headland

    Reggie, I think you need to see a doctor.

    Looking forward to putting this through her paces later this year


    tell me
    do you have a rake got to rake it back into swaths?
    single or double rotor?

    I bought a wuffler last year to save me buying a tedder and a rake but the contractor is only leaving 10 foot swaths and all the driving up and down would make you dizzy
