Cutting Hay For Dummies, The Mower

A BASIC demonstration of a rotary hay mower, how it works, what to expect, what parts wear out. If you are want to start cutting hay this is the first in a series of short videos to show you how. Using a sickle bar mower isn't covered but the series should help newbies figure with some of the basics of drying and bailing hay.

I like your vids. Just bought a disc to replace my haybine. Can’t wait.

would love to see a video on how to actually replace the blades. We have a Fela disc cutter with no manual. Really old. Ha. Cant even find one on line. That's old. But works.

I just bought a disc mower but can’t find a good video on how to set it up for mowing. Wondering if you could show how to do that?

Nice. We're looking @ sumthing like this since our old IH 201 Windrower isn't going fwd any>. Everything else works, but I missed a lot of hay last yr trying 2 fix it. My question is if you're cutting 9' rows, how's your baler picking it up? The windrower did about 4' rows, so the baler could get most of it. Thanks!
