You are quite the good neighbor! Mike’s lucky to have you for a friend 👍🏻 By the way, your videos are pretty good, too: we are afforded good frontal shots as well as angles of the business end. This allows us to actually follow along and maybe learn something.

Mark Marine, Mike helped me get a start. When I was a young kid he would turn me loose running his tractors helping him in the hay field and later hired me to rake and do things for him. He would do it for me so I’m more then happy to assist when he needs it.

junkinmycar sometimes it won’t take string unless you pull into the window with it. Thanks!

Do you have any trouble out of the laced belts? My bottom belts are wore bad but I’m dreading putting on the continuous belts they call for.

[@khtractors]

I have had trouble with laced belts but that’s with trying to run them along with the original. Hard to get them the correct length. But a full matching set would run fine most likely. Thanks

I put a full set of laces belts in the floor of my 484 new idea baler. No problem running with the other endless belts.

[@khtractors]

@@scottviers3794 yes it’s best to do a complete set on the replacement section. Running mixed matched belts on one section is where you have trouble. Thanks for sharing.

@@khtractors I appreciate your reply, I cldnt find anybody that had tried it before but I’m going to put on a set in the bottom of mine this winter. Probably do the alligator laces
