Baling Hay With An Old Tractor And New Baler | Ford 6610 | John Deere 450e | Also Featuring The Cows

In this video we show off our new John Deere baler. Our tractor isn’t new so we have to take it easy. On the way out Emily films a muskrat with some cow parsnip in the lake. You also get a fairly in depth walk around with the cows while she waters them.

Those are the best tractors ever built I believe. Then they made the mistake to sell out to newholland . We had a 7610 and a 7710 when I was growing up and I loved those tractors

[@Peavine]

@@Kylesdoingstuff80 After using it over the years, I think you are right. It starts every time no matter the weather. I’m using it currently to move some dirt around.

FORD IS GOLD 💪👌👍 SIMPLY THE BEST 💪👍❤️

[@Peavine]

Nothing stops an old Ford.

[@williamnoonan6366]

On the right side of the tractor down by the foot pedal there is knobs to adjust hydraulic pressure, adjust that pressure it will allow the baler tailgate to open faster.

[@Peavine]

Thanks, I’ll try it out.

Baler makes a nice bale. Didn't realize that John Deere made a baler that size. Good to know. Nice job.

[@Peavine]

Thanks! We were looking for a smaller baler and the John Deere dealer were the first to respond to my emails. They have been great to deal with.

[@AndraeTaron]

Great video

[@Peavine]

Thanks!

[@moolilyfarm]

nice job! i have a jd 457 round bale that i pull with a 2001 new holland tn65 or a 1969 john deere diesel 4000...my baler also has the bale ramp 'flippers' that were not fast kicking out the bales, there is a hydraulic valve adjustment on the baler to make it go faster and i put a couple 1/4" turns to increase the pressure and now it kicks out faster and i don't have to pull forward to close the gate....best wishes from western new york

[@Peavine]

Thanks! I’ll give that a try next season.

[@steverotz666]

The wheels on the side of the swath only work if you set them down so they turn on the ground

[@Peavine]

I think I forgot to put them all the way down in this video. I didn’t miss any hay since the rake made the swath tall and narrow.

[@farmingforfunandprofit940]

Your channel just popped up, So I decided to watch..... We Do hay Commercially, We round bale everything for speed. in baling, hauling, stacking.... Then convert into small squares, thru a Bale Baron, 21bale bundles, loaded onto a enclosed 53tf trailer for delivery to TSC stores........We have 4 J.D. balers.....P.S........ there is a video showing my Son's wife running the baler!

[@brandonberard3602]

Thanks for the video and review Emily and Dallas. If you have any further questions or need anything else Let me know. Talk to you soon

[@Peavine]

Thanks! The baler has been great!

[@billybobs841]

I got a 450e and I get around 300 rolls per roll of net wrap I think it set on 2.2 wraps

[@Peavine]

The rolls last a fair amount of time considering what you pay for them.

[@benthelivinghuman500I]

Hey there, the reason your right side hydraulics don’t work is because there are to levers on the side of were they plug in that are facing up, if you push them to the down position they will work, in order to properly unplug the hydraulics you depress them even further, when they are upwards as they are now it will cut the flow, the left hand side has no levers that cut oil flow, somone has taken them, they should be there but are not.

[@Peavine]

Thanks, I’ll try that valve and see if it makes a difference. The tractor is still running so we’ll see how it does this haying season.

[@longviewfarm226]

That’s a nice baler good luck with it. Please don’t wear gloves driving the tractor lol

[@hamishkay3010]

Just subscribed to your amazing channel keep up the amazing content, I'd so love to do haymaking. UK Farmer here 🇬🇧

[@Peavine]

Thanks! This last year because of drought we had to buy most of our hay.

[@katieharvey2452]

The bigger and wider the windrow the better. You do A lot less weaving

[@Peavine]

Thanks, I’ll let my raker know.

[@user-zg8ci5fq8m]

Nice

[@jimcox6687]

Thank you for sharing with us your farm. I love your video I use a John Deere 446 round baler. Is where is your farm located?

[@Peavine]

Big Lake, BC Canada

[@jimcox6687]

Nice to meet you I am from Michigan in US. I had a semi, angus short horn herd. Now i am just a peach & hay farmer. Looks like beautiful country ware your at.

[@Peavine]

@@jimcox6687 I wish I could grow peaches.

[@jimcox6687]

@@Peavine i have been raising peaches for a long time now. Every year is getting harder. I have sprayed them 20ty times this year for insects and fungus.

[@grantnoyes4341]

I have a 6610 pulling a Vermeer 504R. We have problems with the windrow getting clogged up on the drawbar and it causes a lot of headaches. I'm guessing smaller rear tires were placed somewhere along the way. What size rear tires do you have on your 6610 and does it seem to set too low?

[@Peavine]

The fronts are 2.4-24 and the rears are 16.9-34. We haven’t had a problem with the windrows getting clogged yet. But we’ll see what happens this year.

[@tomlallman8772]

Shouldn't run the baler with the door open

[@Peavine]

The newer John Deeres have a clutch system that lets you keep the pto going while you dump a bale.

[@raywhite1442]

Are you waiting for the rain

[@Peavine]

Usually you’re trying to get it done before it rains.

[@bobocaterpillar3697]

that bale ramp STINKS. you should NOT have to pull ahead to close the gate.

[@Peavine]

I was thinking it had to do with how weak the rear hydraulics are on the tractor. The lift gate takes forever to open on the baler with that tractor. A little momentum might help the bale ramp. But I don’t know, I’d have to use a different tractor to see a difference.

[@tomlallman8772]

Shouldn't run the baler with the door open

[@Peavine]

It’s got a clutch system that lets it run while you release a bale
