Shop Manual For Hesston 1010
We have had 2 of that model. The rubber roller began shedding the rubber. The 2 rollers should not touch each other, They turn at different speeds 'skuffing' the crop to give it faster dry down.
Eventually you will replace a bearing on the end of one of the roller shafts. Plan on using a torch to get that bearing off. We have moved on to the NH discbine machine now, but any discbine sure takes a lot of Hp compared to the sickle cutter of the 1010. If you have the Hp, you will be able to cut faster with a discbine. But watch out for rocks and expensive back windows of the tractor cab. The sickle may break a tooth from a rock, but it does not throw it through the cab window. With the swing tongue, you can cut your fields in a more efficient pattern.
We made 6 continuous loops around the field perimeter, and then worked from one side to the other, alternating the cutter left to right. The continuous loops give us headlands for turning around at the ends. We always tried to cut in pairs of rows because our wheel rakes were 2 rows wide. You should match the width of your rake to the size of the cutterbar.
For us, this meant a 12 wheel rake, but we also made our own custom width rake for turning 2 rows simultaneously but not pulling them together (faster dry down in heavy crop). Full length rollers on this 1010,rubber on top,steel on the bottom.Rubber is in good condition,noticed that the rollers don't quit intermesh.Wonder if that is even an issue as long as there is pressure between the rollers.My other hay mower is a Deere disc mower with impeller conditioner that works real well cutting and drying down grass hay.Had a NH haybine before that.Tough to beat a disc mower/conditioner though.I think the Hesston will make a good backup mower plus I like the nostalgia of an older Hesston swather being pulled by a IH Farmall 656!

Brookshear computer science 11th edition solutions manual. I kind of kicked myself for trading it off instead of just replacing everything on the cutterbar,but I was in the mood for something new. I should have fought the feeling.

Most underrated hay cutter out there.
