i got my haybine working today, its supposed to rain so i cant cut any hay yet, but i did a few passes in the edges of the field just to try it out. i was wondering how are ya supposed to know how tight the rollers should be adjusted together? there are 2 cranks for adjusting them, but i dont know how to tell if they are adjusted right. also, the right angle gearbox, the one that the pto drive goes into, what type of lubricant is that supposed to take, and how much of it? there doesnt appear to be a filler plug or a level plug, so i just took off the top cover and there was some oil in the bottom of the box, i added a bit more of 140 weight gear oil, but i dont know if thats what it is supposed to take or not
