    Ways to fix the rake squeak. 1. Wax. Only temporary. 2. Cut off the rod rings. Install larger rings with nylon bushings. Time consuming and somewhat expensive. 3. Edit out the sound during that portion of the video. A hassle and not keeping it real. 4. Ignore any future complaints having given a fair explanation. Easy peasy. : )
    I sure do enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing.

    As a proud graduate of M.I.T. ( Manny's Institute of Tires), I have put a tremendous amount of thought and research into your squeaking problem. Ok... maybe not a lot of thought, but neighbor Ned and I went through a 30 pack of Genesee while we talked about it. I came up with what I consider a perfect solution to your problem. I can't ask Ned for his opinion because he passed out and fell off his tree stump after the 14th beer and now his Dog , Rufus, is laying dead groundhogs on him to keep him warm. But, my solution is this... just dont pick up the rake or set it down. Just pick a position and leave it there till you either trade it off or quit farming and get into the Slappy Repair Business ( I'm sure you could get an SBA loan). Hey.. no need to thank me for all my assistance. I'm glad I could help. One thing tho... if somebody could help me drag Ned off the railroad tracks before the 8:15 train comes through, I'd appreciate it.

One day he decided to see if he could get a bigger Angus by crossbreeding Holsteins with Angus. He kept it up until he finally had a purebred Angus, not an Aberdeen Angus thus the name Erdmann Angus. He and his sons had their annual fall bull and heifer sale in the fall on their farm. This was back in the '70 when I still lived in SD.

    We had one and it knotted the hay so we bought a big new Holland double rotary rake does the same size swath but makes a really really nice windrow

    Have the same problem with out h380, even try oiling the seals on the cylinders, but nothing seems to work! Also if you ever look at upgrading rakes look into a Vermeer vr1428, they are the cats meow,
