What happens here

Examine the single hydraulic hose connecting the tractor to the haybine. Ensure it has enough slack or 'play' to accommodate the machine's movement during operation. This hose connects to a hydraulic cylinder on the haybine that raises and lowers the cutting head. Move the retaining bar from the transport/storage setting to the 'in use' setting by pulling a pin, allowing the hydraulic cylinder to function correctly for mowing.

Goal: Check hydraulic hoses for proper play and adjust the haybine's height mechanism from transport to operating position.

we want to check our hydraulic codes make sure it's got plenty of play plenty of room in there to move because this machine is going to be moving back and forth like that now we have a pin system right here and this pin basically pulls in and out and it ain't gonna pull right now it's kind of funny it's not going to pull right now but I got to pull this pin out rotate the entire machine over to the farthest pinhole right there and that will offset this machine to the tractor in other words I'll show you
