We have finished cutting, turning and its now time to start baling. The tractors fully fixed so no excuses now, we did as per normal have issues with the knotters but with a baler thats 40 years old its to be expected.
In the end we ended up with 75 bales! Am very impressed!

If the two of you need to know how to operate or ajust the equipment please feel free to ask .that hay needed another day of drying at the lest . after you grease the baler sometimes it will miss the first bale or two. The reson it was braking shear bolts is the hat was too damp it most likely molded.

The wee tractor should be singing her heart out on the baler :)

Last year was the first year we baled our first square also! Using the identical baler only I pulled it with wheezing old ‘47 case VA. Horribly underpowered. We have been struggling with the same issues where one in 5-10 bales has either failed to tie, or the duck bills hold too much pressure and when it tries to pull the string out as it feeds more hay in, it pulls the string apart. The loose twine on a finished bale I think has to do with not enough tension at the back making light bales. When I tightened mine up as the bale popped out everything tightens right up. I wish I had better documented our start/struggles to get into farming. I sure enjoy watching others in the same boat tho, makes me feel better about our own learning curve. Hope this year is easier for you!

We are the same, wish there were more out there. Especially with older kit which we have so we can learn and make better choices and......hay :-). There has been some great comments on this post and others which have helped us as we defo aren't generational farmers

The 2 cranks at the rear of the baler chambers adjust your weight of the bale. Make smaller wind rows bext time. I have an ih 445 baler.

Good video I have a 445D with a hydraulic plunger I would like to suggest that the baler knives need sharpening and your bale twine tension adjustment will help you to make the more even. At the back of the baler you have two tension arm. By adjusting it down, it will hold the other bale in the chamber long giving you tighter bales best of luck 🤞

Thanks, we didn't make hay since this video due to having a baby but this year will be. Got someone to give the baler a good service and we will be welding up some areas. Will defo look at the tension and sharpen the baler knifes

Need the pto revs cranked way up on that baker

@WindfoldFarm Жыл бұрын

So a lower gear but higher revs to get the hay through the pickup quicker?

@matthewfenton8775 Жыл бұрын

@@WindfoldFarm yes sertainky. Your taco on the dash should be marked for 540 pto rpm. That’s where the baler will sing, if not marked the baker should strole between 65-75 strokes per minute. Also don’t worry about the twine/string being loose in the exit Shute. It will be till it passed out the end through the compressor.

no hay should have to dry out after bailing

@WindfoldFarm Жыл бұрын

Well it rained so the hay got soaked before we could get the bales of the park.

Well from The amount of views, there seems to be a lot of people who enjoy watching Newbies struggle.....Age of equipment can be compounded by not knowing how it works together New stuff will give the same results without any idea of how each part functions..... With the electronic knowledge available at your fingertips......that can be avoided But you did alright.....Which proved that even a blind squirrel will find an acorn every now and then.....

Make sure the little knifes are sharp that cut the knots if the little tails near knot look chewed they are blunt and knot will hang on knotters and rap around bill hook. Make bales as tight as you can by winding those two handles down on rear of baler.
