Nice to see you operating a tractor and trailer way older thn you are

Great video as a new hobby farmer, I got a lot out of it. thanks for your content

Any Massey dealer will have those shear bolts. They are special bolts.

Yeah I have the same baler I’ve been running it for 3 years, nice old baler, same thing happens with me, it shears there bold because there just to much hay getting stuffed in there at once and it clogs up 👍 awesome video

Those pins are usually a grade 2 bolt designed to protect the baler. Just a big wad of hay probably caused it to shear. Here is the Massey part number for those pins 153221M2. To get the last bale...loosen the tension handles turn the baler on at an idle then pull the bale out.

Tractor Supply carries sheer bolts. Great job! I love your videos.

Nice to see u using an older type tractor and baker. Hope u have help to pick up the bales

Beautiful Video. Yur doing GOOD.

I always carry a pair of leather gloves to unplug a baler.

The MF part number for the shear bolts is 153221M2 5/16 X 3 1/4 inch grade 2 bolt. >They are on eBay. Get a tin can and put a couple wrenches and the bolts in the twine box so you will have them with you when baling. When the baler is tying knot if the needles aren't all of way home the plunger will hit the safety stop and shear the bolt. Also if you don't maintain 1500 rpm of the 8N engine your pto will be too slow causing added stress on the drive line of the baler hence shearing the bolt.

Big hay clumps will take out the sheerpin !!

Wow once you get the rest of that field brush hogged and the trees removed that is going to be a nice size hay field!

Nice video you can get sheer pins for your baler I've seen them on ebay. I was thinking your plunger knife and stationary knife may need replaced or sharpened also may help just a idea. Take care.

great video! I wonder if you used a pto clutch if that would help with the pin shearing problem? From what I remember, because the PTO drive on the ford tractors being a live pto, I would have issues when pulling a brush mower of causing excessive wear on the drive line and gear box. At one time we installed one of those pto clutches which allowed better spin up spin down on the machine.

I have a Massey number 3 bailer; shear pins one gets from any Massey dealer. I grew up with this number 3; my father purchased it new. I use my round bailer mostly now; but the number 3 is an outstanding bailer. I buy box lots of bolts from Massy. Have questions message me. Make sure your knives are out of the chamber before starting it back up. The tool box enclosure at the bailers side is where you store lots of those shear bolts.

I was just thinking that ideally that field needs ploughing and reseeding and you said it about 20 seconds later. You are by yourself and it's therefore not so easy, but what we would used to do when we had poor quality thick hay (or bracken for bedding) was to put it through the baler is bring the hay to the baler and feed it in at an appropriate speed and volume using pitchforks. That also helped us to weed out the rubbish and protect the baler. However, we never did this for any large area so using your field as an example, it would only be that particularly bad part. Of course, I can't gauge or fully appreciate the actual size of that part so what we did may not necessarily be the best or even a good solution. In any case, ideally you would need someone on the tractor to shut it down if something were to go wrong (including for safety), someone to feed the baler and someone at the back of the baler to move the bales when they come out and temporarily stack them.

What do you usually do with the bales other than these you just baled for your brother

How’d that 8n do overall pulling it? I just got a model 3 to go with my 53 jubilee

That's probably not great hay for horses but cattle will eat it- are you selling it? Haven't noticed any critters in your farmstead.

Do u live there

Dunno who did the rowing up, but they didn't do much of a job. Rows all over the place and inconsistent !

sell that baler and get a 24t john deere
