| I agree with boog. I never ran a 220, but sure have seen a lot of them do a nice job. A few worn items might help cause your problems, but I would say incorrect settings are most of it. Getting the reel and the auger set are VERY critical. I was having bunching problems with one end of a 1020 Case IH head for years (I'm embarrassed to admit). While helping a neighbor cut, I told his Dad about the problem I was having trouble with the head at just about sundown every evening. He came over and looked the head over. We made a VERY miniscule adjustmentto the pitch of the tines on that end. WHAT A DIFFERENCE he made.
Go find some old experience and ask their opinion . . . while it's running. EVERY adjustment of forward, back, up or down on the auger AND the reel AND the retractible fingers IS critical. Be anal about it. It will make a difference. If you don't have a manual for the head, find one. It should have initial settings for the auger height and retractible fingers. Start from there.
Good Luck !
