Hello I have a new holland 469 haybine with conditioner ,well i was making my second cutting and started to have trouble with it .

I was missing a lot of hay and would get clogged up at the cutter bar , would have to go in reverse to clear it thaen it would cut good and do the same thing again.

I noticed my belt on the cutter bar is worn and needs replaced ,it is out of adjustment , also I would have to go so slow to cut the hay it took me forever to finish my field.

Any one know how to correct this problem ?????????????

thanks
Greg

It could be several things. Did you check the bearing in the end of the cutter bar? As these go the stroke get short. Also are the knives sharp? Are the guards worn? Are all of the cutter bar hold downs in place and are the holding the knives against the bottom of the guards?

I know there is probably more it could be, but these where the 1st things I used to check when one I used was having issues.
