Sorry, I did not post anything yet. I have only had one haying window this season, around the 19-22 of June. I cut one field and got 294 bales, used my new $200 NH 68 baler after I put on a tire and chain and made new plunger bearings for the bottom. The 300 was great, I was able to run the 9' haybine in 2nd gear and used the TA a little bit while climbing some of the steeper hills. I would have had enough power to run in 3rd but I did not steer as well, especially on the corners. The temp never got over about 150 or so on the gauge, the oil pressure stayed past the halfway point even when hot and everything went well except that I had to bale the last 60 bales with the Massey 35 because the 300 stopped getting gas to the carb. I took it apart and found that rust flecks had built up in the sediment bowl inlet because I was only opening the valve about 1/2 turn and there was not enough room for them to be flushed down into the bowl. Now I open it two full turns and that should be far enough to keep that from happening again. I do not know about the fuel economy, I do not keep very good track of how much gas I use. I just peer into the tank and if it looks low I put in some more. Overall I am very happy with the 300 and I especially liked having the fast hitch so I did not have to jack the baler and haybine tongues up, and having the springy seat with a cushion on it. The governor response also seemed a lot smoother than on my H, the engine speed was much more constant without my having to do anything when I went from uphill to downhill. Zach

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
