I totally agree about a 'tedder'?! (I didnt know that was a word...) I will assume (and you know what they say about assuming...) that it is a swather... When my piece of **** broke down in the middle of haying...and I had NO idea where to start fixing a hydrostatic drive... I borrowed a neighbor's 9' mower, and got my haying done, in all honesty, in about the same time as before. Sure a swather has a wider swath, but the breakdown time (running to town 80 miles one way for parts cuts into haying time) and COST of running and repairing said piece of **** is just hard to justify for the kind of haying conditions and the acres I hay. And I had better hay in the stack when I was done. Cut in the morning, go back and rake it and in 105* 0% humidity, half ton to the acre conditions, bale it that evening. And best of all, before a thunder shower got it wet! Tamara
