I am having trouble with hay being thrown over the reel back towards the tractor. It only does it in real tall thick hay (timothy). I moved the reel all the way back and down just so it clears the guards. Also increased the reel speed. All of these things helped but in thick hay I have to slow down to about 2mph to prevent it coming over the reel. In lighter hay the mower cuts good at 4 to 5mph. Any help would be great.
