Growing up dad grew 30-40 acres of burley tobacco every year and had lots of "seasonal" help which were mostly drunks and wino's. So from an early age I was exposed to every cuss word of that time(there's a lot more now). But I never used any of them(at least around anybody) until at about age 15 when I got stuck running the "H" Farmall pulling a conditioner identical to yours. In tall,thick fescue orchard grass it would constantly wrap all the way across the steel roller and it would happen instantly and start slipping the ratchet style clutches. But then one day dad ran it instead of me and that night he said "that thing would make the POPE cuss". It left the farm after that year and replaced with new NH haybine. That restored my faith in heaven.
Good luck with yours and yes they do a good job of conditioning hay.
Have you got any rain yet or still dry?
