Hesston 1014 knife
Thats another possibility I hadn't thought of as our New Holland never had that, bolts would last long enough to wear a few of the bushings out in the sickle head then snap. If you could rivet it somehow that would take up the slack in the worn holes. Probably slightly worn holes allowing the bolts to wear and then break. Also check the register on the sickle and make sure if any adjustment is available that it is adjusted correctly. Also make sure you don't have any guards bend up from hitting rocks, stones, or other obstructions. Make sure you have good guards, sections and that the knife back isn't wore.

Would usually eat up the rubber bushings in the knife head then every couple of bushings would shear the grade 8 bolt that connected the knife head to the box. If it's the bolt that connects the knife head to the wobble box it was a common problem with the 495 as well. Is it the bolts that hold the wobble box to the frame or the bolt that connects the knife to the wobble box? We used to have a New Holland 495, was a 12' cut but with a single wobble box unlike the 499 which used dual 6' sickles with dual wobble boxes.

UT done a test on the recovery time on orchard grass cutting it at 1 inch compared to 4 inches and it was unreal how much faster it started growing than the grass cut close. We have started cutting about 4 inches high and it has helped a bunch with keeping a good stand of grass. Also the quality of hay you are cutting can help help you decide whether you need the1110 or a disc mower. It will be a lot slower than a disc mower. I would check it out and if it has been well maintained I would not be afraid of it. Dad uses the 1110 all the time and it does a great job crimping the hay.

HESSTON 1014 KNIFE MANUAL
Timing the rolls is not hard, nor setting the gap, but you will need a manual to do it. Each listing with your parts book or service manual.
HESSTON 1014 KNIFE SERIES
Hesston 1014 Series Hydro-Swing Mower Conditioner. One of my all-time best buys.Lease verify eash listing with your parts book or service manual. There is a problem, I don't think JD make a sickle hydra swing any longer While a disk maybe faster, leave a cleaner finish in the field and have less knife breakages than a sickle, I reckon this is offset by the short dual knives and bolted sections of the 1600A and the BIG one, we easily run the 14 foot 1600A with a 70 hp tractor I believe the JD beats the Hesston hands down for capacity and reliability We replaced a 1014 with a JD 1600A 16 years ago Crimper is more than twice as wide in Macdon. Went from a Hesston 1014 to a MacDon 5020 16 ft.

I got a Macdon 14 foot 5000 i would part with.E mail is good. We had a 1014 then a 1160 and now have a SP 8400 with the head off a 8450 What about a 1160 Hesston? Basically the same but with some upgrades. Every step was a large improvement in my opinion. I had a JD1600, Macdon 5010 and new this year to me a 2004 NH 1475. It doesn't have the swaybars, is a dual auger header, and I think its simpler than the 1014. We used a 1014 in the past and love the Deere. We have one that has been very trouble free. Seems like most people in our area have NH 1475's and they look like a pretty good machine.Ībout 50 acres hay 3-4 cuttings per year and 20 acres grass hay per year usually. What should we start looking into that might be as good?
HESSTON 1014 KNIFE FREE
It's a very simple and trouble free machine that only needed regular mantainence/ repairs most of the time, very reliable machine. We have had this windrower for about 25 years now and I think dad might be finally ready to retire her.
