I Already Broke My New Squeeze

[@beavernw7017]

I run the old freeman 200 2tie bailers. Great to see farmers making hay. Just stared my final cutting up in Washington state.

[@vancemcdonald7208]

Brother. Try Parker O-Ring Lube on every O-ring you install it will allow you longer o-ring life. It’s truly a game changer

[@BalesHayFarmandRanch]

Nice

@@BalesHayFarmandRanch Go to Caterpillar and get their yellow o-rings. Made a believer out of me. Spendy but last

[@dtstarlingfarms1245]

That's funny, Sunny D is a couple miles from our house. My wife and I will sometimes drive through their lot, you know like car shopping. You were talking about that hay being 40 day hay. We cut on a 40 day rotation, but we only get 3 cuttings a year. The difference between Arizona alfalfa and Southern Oregon/northern Cali hay. Take care dude, happy haying🤙🏻

Using air to actuate the hydraulics is one extra system to fail. Converting them to electric over hydraulic would be the best way to go. Using a electrically actuated hydraulic system could greatly simplify the hydraulic plumbing with a single multi valve block. Those systems are extremely reliable and they are commonly used on heavy equipment, tractors and forklifts.

[@BalesHayFarmandRanch]

My buddy has one like that. His only complaint is, he can’t feather it. Slowly open, or close, or tilt. It’s all or nothing. I’m sure that can’t be upgraded.

[@shawnchurch316]

@@BalesHayFarmandRanch That would actually be a easy upgrade using a electronic variable orifice valve with potentiometer based controls. Has anyone added cameras to the ends of the forks on a squeeze, that seems like it could really help or cameras in other locations.

Thanks for the video, hope the issues with the new squeeze are over

What twine do you use and color. If we use anything other than blue our balers have fits. NH and MF Hesston balers

Use the guides for the plasma cutter cuts down on burning up consumables! Thanks for sharing!

[@jonnynevitt811]

Do you put a cap on your steamer where you put RO water in? Or do you guys just run water through it to clean it.

[@BalesHayFarmandRanch]

It gets a cap. The steam is made from the water.

[@jonnynevitt811]

I noticed in the video your steamer is running with out the cap on the back. I only noticed because when we bought our steamer it did not come with a cap on the back and they made it sound very important to keep that area clean when filling with water. So I bought a cap to try to keep it clean.

When things appear to be at their worst. Just remember the old song from HEE-HAW Gloom despair and agony on me. Deep dark depression, excessive misery. If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all, gloom despair and agony on me.

[@douglindley179]

Do they make an electric over hydraulic so you could run a joystick control

[@BalesHayFarmandRanch]

Yes. But that brings other issues. You can’t feather the mast. More electronics in the dust, more things can go wrong.

Nice haircut.

Maintenance is a great thing, especially since you get to do it. The Big Green Farm Machine Co. doesn't like owners to repair their own equipment. Right To Repair seems not to be a problem in your world. Those machines you run seem to last 4-evah !

I could understand why you had that large weight on the front of the Fendt when you were pulling the disk but why carry all that around when you’re baling?

[@BalesHayFarmandRanch]

Different tractors!

[@jamesward5721]

Trevor, how has the hike in diesel affected your bottom line? You have to be burning serious amounts to keep all them big wheels turning - Muchos in fact (that means a lot to my spanish speaking friends) - so has it impacted?

[@BalesHayFarmandRanch]

Yes!!!! It sucks!! I don’t know the bottom like yet. However we have adjusted our custom harvest and freight rates to make up.

[@mikesiemering7865]

Trevor go to caterpillar and get caterpillar O-rings not Agco

[@kelvinstecklein8570]

Do you harvest the custom hay with a percentage of the crop

[@BalesHayFarmandRanch]

No. We charge a custom rate. Then we can buy the crop at market value or the grower can sale it.

So I can see the Headlines.. 2 Boys found standing at the intersections with signs "will work for toys" Then under that it'll read "our dad keeps trying to be a mechanic and we can't fire him YET". Trevor you're barley a farmer,. You can't run any of the tractors or other equipment to farm with. You're doing good to be able to drive that camouflaged truck, actually I'm shocked you can find it when you're out in the fields LOL. Hope you've been able to get things fixed ya goofy guy. Just remember you're not a mechanic. 😂🙄🤔🙃😁
