I have seen tractors overheat because they have been loaded past their limits. A 574 at 52 HP is loaded past its limits on a New Idea Cutditioner . I think the problem is People don't understand The difference between a New Idea Cutditioner and a Mower Conditioner. New Holland , Hesston, Gehl, Massey, Etc. never made a Cutditioner. These brands are all Mower Conditioners. They have a Reel to sweep the Hay into the Sicklebar which cuts the hay, which then goes to the rolls which condition the hay to promote faster drying. A New Idea Cutditioner Has wide flails which cut the hay, and condition the hay at the same time . Also good for picking up down hay, and leveling woodchuck holes at the same time. The N I C, takes a lot more power than a mower conditioner. The newer Disc bines also take a lot more power than an older mower conditioner. and don't work as well for leveling woodchuck holes though they do pick up downed hay quite well. MY LAST POST ON THIS SUBJECT GOODNITE Mrs, Calabash wherever you are.
