I have a 5209 and pull it with my JD 4020. I went with the NI because it is a lighter machine, 9’ wide matches my other equipment, has widest rollers in that width machine, requires less horsepower than other brands. Mine was used and had the drive shaft replaced by the dealer I bought it from. I disassembled the entire cutting bar anyway and replaced 2 bad bearings and one cutting module. I keep the knives very sharp with a hand held grinder. I wish I had bought this thing years earlier. I ran a NH469 for 15 years which I basically rebuilt all moving parts, including the rolls. I haven’t had to replace anything in 10 years on the 5209 and the haybine was constantly needing knife sections, batt teeth, knife bushings, bearings, etc. way more moving parts to adjust and replace. I vote yes to the 5209 types. I can get home in the evening, start mowing before dark, get done with heavy dew like clockwork and have zero problems. I loathed 1st cutting hay with a haybine. This mower really changed that. Photo is of it gliding thru very thick grass hay just rained on night before and not cleared up yet.

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
