I curious has anyone ever tried retrofitting a hydraulic lift on the pickup header of a Hesston baler? I'm constantly having to raise and lower mine (with the screw) to cross hiways and drain ditches. I need a faster way to raise the pickup header. bjr

There is actually a kit that specifically fits our units. Its plug and play, but replaces the crank handle unit and linkage. Contact a MF dealer as the current models are very similar still. There may be a few out there. You may also want to post this in the Hay forum.
