I can’t stress this enough. Put up the safety lock on the gate when you are working on the machine

He did at 1:46

When chamber is full at max capacity, tension comes off the pickup drive belt to prevent more hay coming into baler. This is where operators manual comes in handy. Not tying on one side, check that twine flows easiy out the feeding tube. Not much tension on twine from is needed. Dunno if your machine has two tubes or one. Learning comes from experience, trial and errors...

You saved me a lot of headache I’ve got a 530 Heston and my belts wouldn’t move when I bought it. Sure enough it had those pins in it works perfect now!

[@redcossack245]

I have a question on Hesston balers and I see you have one. Do you know of any study comparison on the older Hesston balers as I am shopping for one, want to make sure my smaller tractor will pull it but the plethora of numbered units is rather mind boggling! Thanks.

Might try gearing down and throttling up - you’ll roll the bale over faster and make a tighter bale. Without a monitor you have to peek in between the belts to see when to weave to evenly fill the bale chamber. I had a jd510 back in the 80s that worked like that case. I fabbed a twine splitter on the end of the twine arm and ran 2 spools of twine to shorten the tying time.

That was about annoying

[@williamlasure6301]

OMG!! I have one and hate it for 2nd cut. Make nice bale's with long dry hay. Its mostly a lawn ornament now

[@tangydiesel1886]

I'm not sure if you where doing it or not, but the bale will wrap better if you pull the twine arm across moderately quick to the other side to feed the twine in, then go back putting on twine at the correct speed.

That's one of my favorite movies, hang in there, you'll figure it out

[@mechelesee4875]

We just got an old Vermeer and having a heck of a time with it. Ordered a manual. It keeps clogging and is really frustrating.

[@reeceedwards2509]

My 604l vermeer did the same thing a shear pin on the sprocket missing fixed that but still slow at beginning ps my buddy stevie give him the credit in five minutes diagnose

[@mechelesee4875]

@@reeceedwards2509 Thank you! I will have this checked out.

How much horsepower in your tractor?

[@artgoat]

Those chains are about to fall off!

[@imaslowlerner]

Do you plan on putting a front loader on?

[@johnhayes3111]

Go to your local dealer and pickup operator manuals for your equipment

[@drvinson8947]

The movie play over make the whole video. 😂

[@poopenfarten9497]

I'm here cause for some reason my belts are turning in the baler but the hay bale itself isn't turning.

[@grrrrrlonfirew]

Probably just too tall when you cut it. All the years we did hay, never let it get half that tall. Machine not designed to take in those long strands.

[@JimTurnerGenuine]

Moneybale?

[@YanasaTV]

Yeah... I should really change the title to that one

[@JimTurnerGenuine]

I was laughing very hard at the clips!

[@libertyfallfarms164]
