Hello all,
I first posted this in the New Holland Forum, but I think this is the right place for the post.
I have a question about the operation of a NH Haybine 472.
While cutting today the rubber roller lugs on the bottom roller started to peel off, exposing about 1 foot of the steel cylinder. Prior to operation the upper and lower roller lugs seemed to be properly interleaved and the mo-co worked fine. Also the mo-co was just checked over by a new holland mechanic at a local dealer.
I would like to finish the cutting without delay. The rollers are very expensive and will probably take a long time to have repaired. My question is: Can I disengage the rollers by removing the drive chains and just use the 472 as a cutter. I would then make a pass with a rake to form windrows.
Thanks for you thoughts,
Paul
