Sorry, I did not post anything yet. I have only had one haying window this season, around the 19-22 of June. I cut one field and got 294 bales, used my new $200 NH 68 baler after I put on a tire and chain and made new plunger bearings for the bottom. The 300 was great, I was able to run the 9' haybine in 2nd gear and used the TA a little bit while climbing some of the steeper hills. I would have had enough power to run in 3rd but I did not steer as well, especially on the corners. The temp never got over about 150 or so on the gauge, the oil pressure stayed past the halfway point even when hot and everything went well except that I had to bale the last 60 bales with the Massey 35 because the 300 stopped getting gas to the carb. I took it apart and found that rust flecks had built up in the sediment bowl inlet because I was only opening the valve about 1/2 turn and there was not enough room for them to be flushed down into the bowl. Now I open it two full turns and that should be far enough to keep that from happening again. I do not know about the fuel economy, I do not keep very good track of how much gas I use. I just peer into the tank and if it looks low I put in some more. Overall I am very happy with the 300 and I especially liked having the fast hitch so I did not have to jack the baler and haybine tongues up, and having the springy seat with a cushion on it. The governor response also seemed a lot smoother than on my H, the engine speed was much more constant without my having to do anything when I went from uphill to downhill. Zach

Today's Featured Article - Women and Tractors - Tractor Engine Repair - by Teri Burkholder. One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
