22:42 Never was so much effort put into saving so little labor. The general idea of bale pickup machines is that there's enough space (time) between bales for the machine to process them into a stack, and the tractor can keep a steady pace without stopping. Somebody (obviously edited out) picked up bales and moved them into those tight rows. Time saved? Nope. Effort? Definitely not. Next week's video: "New Clutches for the 560 and the 806". 24:40 IH is famous for their farm equipment. Their balers? Erm, not so much...

watching you constantly clutching the tractor when baling brings back a memory. My brother in law used to bale straw to sell horse farmers. Little 14T Deere. as combines got bigger they clutched all the time. I'm a dairy farmer, he's a vo-ag teacher. I told him to put it on 1000 rpm. He said it'll blow up. NO throttle your 4020 all the way down and you have reduced 1st gear by half. Works great you might want to try it and save your clutch. Might even work for your NH bale wagon?

@ikonseesmrno7300
@ikonseesmrno7300 8 күн бұрын
It's a 47 baler & I do have the #10 thrower. It's just a lot easier to maneuver around my field & the other odd pieces that I do custom work in, without it. I currently have the 1/2 turn chute on the back & come around with a NH bale wagon to pick up. Then the load goes straight to the barn & auto unload onto an elevator or I can grab them as they come off & toss them to whoever is in the barn. It works out pretty slick & seems to go a bit faster than the thrower & wagon setup. It also permits a few more breaks to whoever I'm delivering to. I'll have some vids up soon, that shows the operation. Thanks for tuning in!!

I'm still at an impasse. The 60 series is what I'm familiar with. Haven't had a chance to drive any of the New Gen tractors to form an opinion on them. There is more power there, but I'm on the fence about the transmission. Also heard they were not trouble free & Deere had to iron out some bugs. Have heard some of the repairs were done in a secluded area so as not to attract too much attention from the press. Will be interesting to hear more about that. Regards!

I do run mine at 540. If your baler seems like it doesn't like it, just adjust the throttle down a bit. Like around 480 - 500 even & go from there. Make sure the pickup is straight, the knotters are good & the twine knives sharp & you should be ok. Good luck!
