I am looking at a new Case/IH disc blade windrower. This swather does not have crimping rolls at all. My question to anyone who has any experience with one is if it would be a major problem not to have the rolls.
I have a JD 3430 swather with a 14' head. It is a nice swather, but I have too much trouble swathing big brome hay. It keeps wanting to slug the machine. I have installed new belts, guards, sections, the works, but in heavy brome can barely move without issues. I have put up with this for 3 or 4 years, and am looking for a change.
Any thoughts on not having a crimper? I know in the old days using a cycle bar mower it seemed the hay dried fast, but it was more laid out in a wider swather. Let me know your thoughts. This one I am looking at is condidered 10'-6 wide I believe. Narrower swather, but I would assume at a considerably faster speed. Also, I small bale about 300 or so, and sometimes the swath in big brome is almost too much for the baler. Thanks for any information, good or bad. Bob
