Had about 3a of grass I decided to cut and bale. This is how it went;
First, the mower has slid off it's block and the tonge is buried in the dirt. - got it back on the block. Second, it hs a flat. - air up tire, must be a slow leak.
Ok so now it is hooked up.
Pull up on the hyd lever an raised the machine. Hear a hissing sound, get off tractor thinking the tire is having issues. Nope, blew seal in the cylinder, hyd fluid going everywhere.
Fix that, finally get it out in the field. Go through and service it. oK now it am ready to mow.
About half way down the first pass the reel stops and it plugs up. Get down and find the drive sprocket missing. CRAP! Spend 15 mins locating it. Back to the shop, fix it and proceed back to the field.
Start where I left off go maybe 30 feet, and the reel drive chain jumps off. Put it back on and 30 feet later it is off again. OK something is not right. Looking closely I see the upper roller has bearing issues. Back to the shop.
Half way up the drive the mower drops to the ground. Blew the hose at the cylinder. SOB! Drag it of the drive, unhook and go get the sickle mower.
Hook it up, go to service it and remember I stole a hold down last fall. Locate a hold down, install it, and service it. Back to the field.
Having a terrible time plugging. Check knives, guards, and hold downs. Finally figured out the drive belt was on the loose side. Back to the shop, add shims to tighten belt. Back to the field.
