    Crop Sheers??

    What does everybody have for crop sheers on their swathers? What kind are the best? Would be putting them on a MF 5200 swather header.

          4g roto shears come in two parts. Mounting bracket, and the shear. I am pretty sure i have a set of MF Mounting brackets still in box from last year when they shipped out wrong brackets for me. Let me know if you want them...half price and I'll pop them on the bus

              Make sure you get the 5200 mount for the rotoshears and not the universal mount. Just in the process of changing them over on ours. The universal mount has a three inch offset where the crop seems to hang up. Haven't got the new mounts yet but looking at pictures it seems to be a smooth transition

                Make sure you have a pressure relief style control valve so rotoshear can mometarily jam without blowing a hose.
