Spent literally all weekend combining soybeans with my M2 and 315 head.
WHAT A HEADACHE!!
The 315 head is the absolute biggest piece of crap I have ever been within 100 feet of, I think I would rather have a set of JD plows.
It will not feed beans, it slugs them and they plug the feeder beater.
If the beans are very tall it will feed them okay, but short beans forget it.
I put 100 new reel fingers on it Saturday morning and they are cut off back to 3 inches long again!
What am I missing? Is there anything I can do to dramatically help?
I cut a lot of beans with it and was constantly getting out to unplug the beater.
I only have 10 acres of beans to go, but I would love to cut it without getting out every 100 feet.
I'm thinking a series 2 head, but I don't think they are a flex head or maybe a JD 215 or something.
