I finally had to get a drum mower... Sickle bar wouldn't work with my alfalfa... A 135 CCM is what I ended up with... A great mower.... And I have a 14T baler... When I get the ground speed right, for my windrows, it works fine... I'm still tweaking the baler to be dependable... I had trouble with the knotter tying... Found out, through testing, it took 22 plunger strokes before the knotter would tie... Couldn't find out WHY ??? but at 20 strokes, it skipped the knotting sequence... Soooooo, I had to slow down the ground speed while keeping up the baler speed.... My Jubilee works perfect for this.. It has an under/over/direct Sherman and an under drive Howard... 24 forward speeds and 6 in reverse... When I do get it all in sync, it works perfect... Tight bales... No banana shape...
