First Hay Cutting of 2020/ John Deere 1209 Moco Update

I took the John Deere 1209 that I bought a few months back down the highway to a hay job. This was my first time using it. I was really impressed by how nicely it cut. It made a nice wind row and everything continued to move freely including the sickle bar. It doesn't take much horsepower to run this thing. Even a small 35 horse tractor could run it.

Keep up the good work man I got the same haybine

Cool video. I have one of those 1209’s and am trying to may the swing hydraulic like yours. Jd wants 980.00 for the cylinder, I was wondering if you have a part number on your orange aftermarket one? Thanks!
