AC they did design a cover and it's packed full of hay. The "Wrap Guard" as the call it is below the drive shaft and you can see the hay stuffed between it and the shaft.

The cover should seal up the spinning shaft. Is it maybe missing a part? Making a shield may help.

My suggestion: don't make the window so big. Rake less into it.

This is a pic from the JD parts. Big space between the 2 shields and they don't seal up to the shaft. I agree about keeping the windrow down.

I guess it's not big enough to have the fully encased shaft.
Smaller windrow or make added protection is the best bet.

Looks like the best answer. Will discuss with the owner.

Straddling the windrow is the worst for that. Big square bale and round bale machines can be a pain. We had offset small square balers but in big windrows of rye straw the draw bar would drag stuff. I still like your belt idea to protect the drive shaft.

They'd have to figure out how to steal it from CNH first.

Another possible is to try those plastic driveshaft covers ( designed to protect people) for the exposed rear PTO shafts. Though, the conveyer belt does look like a good solution.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
