Those balers, I was told by a man in the know that at least two NH balers in this region had accidents last year because on very very dry ground the balers tyres offered zero grip, driver turns a bit tight and they slide, bending both drawbars!
I would have thought to start sliding you have to be on some serious ground or turning too fast.
I have made hay where I had my hand against the window to stay on the seat but never slid.
Grazed it the next year.

I’m guessing it’s got a creeper box if it’s only got the short shaft. You’ll need to tilt the cab over to gain access, the shaft shouldn’t actually be that bad to get out/in. There’s a elbow fitting on the front of the powerquad that has a plastic pipe attached, that will probably need to come out. Put the flywheel end of the shaft in first then the pq end should just about drop in.
thanks Phil I will see how I get on just waiting for parts and the time

Back in time, 80 years or so, you paid the council a fee to graze verges, and let a young lad sit with them all day... win win for the council, they got paid for trimming verges.

Driving the back roads in Australia, and I mean the back back roads, you'd come across a mob of sheep with a dog on a chain at either end keeping them "in"
