mkirsch said: (quoted from post at 07:41:36 08/04/08)You need to rake the hay at least once between mowing and baling anyway, and raking will fluff out anything you did by running over the swath or windrow with the 400's front tires.
Nope, there is no need to rake hay between cutting with a haybine and baling it. Actually, I much prefer baling hay that hasn't been raked - picks up much nicer in my opinion.
Back to the original question - set your rear tires as wide as possible, swing the haybine accordingly and straddle the windrow.
OR - set the rear tires as narrow as possible and drive between the windrow and un-cut hay (swing haybine accordingly). I really don't recommend this as narrow rear tread settings are more likely to roll over.
