Some fifteen years ago I got my MF 224 with thrower because my wife didn't want to drive any more. I had been baling with a JD 336 for maybe ten years. I had one place where the ground was shaded by a big willow tree, and grass grew 6 feet tall there, Every year I would shift down to 1st gear out of 18 to approach it slowly, but then the 336 would get ahold of some of the tall grass and suck it in and bang would go the shear bolt. Ever since I got the MF, I would approach very slowly and the MF baler would suck in so much that the intake couldn't have held one more stem. The MF would shudder, and make the tractor shudder, but it would keep going. One time at another field where there were two trees out in the middle, I was watching behind me to my left as I came around one tree, and got a little off course. The baler got into two double windrows at once! I hit the clutch and the MF just kept sucking all that hay in and put a second bale right on top of the previous one. Neither JD nor NH could hold a candle to the MFs of the time!!
