Howdy folks, We just got an old JD 307 rotary cutter. From the serial number looks like the second one made. Now, we are gettin this ready for cutting and while reading through the manual a question came to mind. In the manual it has pictures of an optional windrower attachment. It also mentions leaving the side open (without the windrower)so that the cut material would cure better, etc. Now, my question. Can this thing be used to cut hay? Will it destroy the hay or just cut it a little more fine. If it could be used, it seems to me that it might greatly lower my hay curing time (I cut with a sickle mower). If any of you know about this or have any experience with it let me know. We're really fightin the weather now and as soon as some dry spells set in we've got hay to cut so this idea may be needed if it will work. Thanks a lot folks. God bless --old fashioned farmer
