Pictures contained in this section are intended to be used as a visual aid to assist in explaining the operation of a Hay Tedder and are not necessarily of a HT419H. Some pictures may show shields removed for purposes of clarity. NEVER OPERATE this implement without all shields in place and in good operational condition.
