cutter bar attach procedure?

[ricky1]

Anyone ever attached a Massey Ferg cutter bar to a 5500? I had it on an old ford and need to use this cutter. The bar had a flat bar connection on right side to control sway and lift, was wondering if anyone has any info or had the same idea? any forseeable problems I should be aware of? thanks!

Don't use that sway bar, as your 5500 already has sway links on your 3PH already, just adjust them to the amount of sway you want.

Thanks! also the lift pins were not long enough to clear the bars. changed those and made adjustments and have cut over 2/3 of field with no problem. Thanks again for the info!
