Hi, I have just grazed off a small field which I am intending to over-seed, yet there are rows of what looks like stubble, the guy from the seed company thinks that my drum mower wasn't setup right, when I cut my hay! what do you think?

All depends on straight or cranked blades, belts and tightness ,forward speeds snd crop thickness ,if standing or flat ,and way cut most likely?When I bought a box of new blades last week, the store man told me that Samasz had changed to longer blades as folks had grumbled about stripes left behind after the mower. I must say my aftermath on my old meadows looks neater, although some years I leave a right old pickle until it grows a bit
what mower is it ?, our PZ 165 did that in 540 , now cut in 1000 pto and keep speed down , eliminated the problem ,tried new blades and all sorts , thats said its not really that important to have a clean cut anywayHi, I have just grazed off a small field which I am intending to over-seed, yet there are rows of what looks like stubble, the guy from the seed company thinks that my drum mower wasn't setup right, when I cut my hay! what do you think?
My taarap disc mower makes a better job running at about 600rpm. (I use the 1000rpm setting).
The mower is a Kuhn 170, new blades, 540 pto on a MF135, so I haven't the luxury of a 1000 pro option!what mower is it ?, our PZ 165 did that in 540 , now cut in 1000 pto and keep speed down , eliminated the problem ,tried new blades and all sorts , thats said its not really that important to have a clean cut anyway

I set the tractor and mower on level ground, and adjusted the top link so that the mower was level... I think I should have tilted the mower slightly forward to allow for any wear in the tractors linkages!, possibly the may have helped!
