Met with the guy from HCC corp. today. Saw the show model of reel running and a video. Talked to Gleaner dealer a few days ago that run one. I ordered one today. Complement this reel drive with removed irons at back of feather sheets and I don't think you could beat it. This will surely help your 500 as well as newer heads. We provided link to their site at our site. hurttequipment.com They will have some new pictures of drive on Gleaner shortly.

bought one last year and it did seem to help feeding as you can set it back almost on the auger. Make sure that when you order for an older model like the 500 that you get the right end stops that keep the fingers from catching and jumping out of the polymer track, The stops need to be 1_4 inch bigger in diameter than those for the newer reels to stop the thing from backlashing and catching. otherwise it was simple to put on and worked very well.
