Thanks for the info. I've had to do a lot of work on the knotters on my 2 neighbors small square balers. How does the net wrap tie on a round bail.
@larsonvalleyfarm6 жыл бұрын
The actuator pushes the loose end of the netwrap against the bale, then after its put as much wrap on as to want the actuator drops a knife that cuts the net wrap. New Holland has a pretty flawless design

Have you done your sledge gears yet on your baler ? Currently have a idler gear that has gone bad and need help with taking apart. There's no videos out there to help.
@larsonvalleyfarm2 жыл бұрын
I have not, but I know a few guys that have. Tey told be that the easiest way is to drop the whole sledge assembly out and rebuild it on the floor or bench. If I remember correctly the belts may have to come out, then the assembly will pivot down, remove the pivot mounts and it should slide out..... However, I have not done one yet so it may come out the way I said above. Good luck Jay

I just saw this video. Do you typically bale without the wind guard? We have an rbx451 case baler. Very similar baler, twine only though. We took ours out for some wet stalks lost year but put it back in. We're in north central Wisconsin.

Need to get ours ready. The hay is going to be HEAVY this year in Missouri after the wettest May ever on record. Dad got a 664 last year and I was the first to run it with the 'Bale Command'. It kept going, and going, and going on the first bale and I wondered if something was wrong. Nope. That's how pathetic the clover was last year. I'll probably be kicking out 4 or 5 for each 1 bale I had last year. I'm always biting my nails hoping everything holds together (the a.c. mainly) until I'm done because it'll be me fixing it.

Wondering if you ever replaced the gears in that baler? My dad bought a 644 and we should've watched this video before buying. The baler has alot of noise until it starts eating hay.

I have not on this baler. Yes, those gears will be noisy until the drums have resistance. They are pricey to replace and not much fun. We did the gears 10 years ago on my neighbors 644

So if one day i was in the market you would say go net wrap vs twine?
@larsonvalleyfarm6 жыл бұрын
I think net wrap is the way to go, especially if you do any custom work. The bales stay together better, it takes about 20 seconds per bale to apply the net wrap vs over a minute for twine. And cost wise, I honestly dont think net is much more expensive than twine
@bobblack38702 жыл бұрын
Netwrap is definitely what you want. If you are selling, it makes the bales look more attractive to buyers. If you are keeping for yourself, they shed weathering better. You can change the number of wraps, depending on your needs. I make sure I do at least 2 wraps, so between start and finish, I set mine at 2.5. The more wraps, the more weather-resistent the bale. When buying the wrap itself, you can select between non-edge and edge wrap. The edge wrap will be a few inches wider, so the wrap covers the face of the bale but also includes the edge plus a couple of inches on the bale side.

Is the knife bent by chance? And it resets when the endgate opens to dump bale. If you need to reset it with bale still in chamber you have to lift the net duckbill (I believe it's called) by hand if not ejecting bale
