I am looking at a new Case/IH disc blade windrower. This swather does not have crimping rolls at all. My question to anyone who has any experience with one is if it would be a major problem not to have the rolls.
I have a JD 3430 swather with a 14' head. It is a nice swather, but I have too much trouble swathing big brome hay. It keeps wanting to slug the machine. I have installed new belts, guards, sections, the works, but in heavy brome can barely move without issues. I have put up with this for 3 or 4 years, and am looking for a change.
Any thoughts on not having a crimper? I know in the old days using a cycle bar mower it seemed the hay dried fast, but it was more laid out in a wider swather. Let me know your thoughts. This one I am looking at is condidered 10'-6 wide I believe. Narrower swather, but I would assume at a considerably faster speed. Also, I small bale about 300 or so, and sometimes the swath in big brome is almost too much for the baler. Thanks for any information, good or bad. Bob

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
