Netwrap Fail Again! What's Up w/ NH Baler?

[@brycewiborg8095]

No experience with net wrap. Thank you Dave.

[@LVFFarmVlogs]

I have that same netwrap issue with mine. Normally my issue is crop material gets up in the duckbill. With mine I usually have to manually clean the duckbill by hand

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

Interesting. I’ll check mine. Tearing into it now.

[@tractortalkwithgary1271]

Good morning Dave and Dawn!

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

Morning Gary

[@patrickbachman2184]

Morning Dave, I hope you can get the net issue sorted out. Happy note,we found the crappie hole in the lake finally and putting some nice slabs in the boat!

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

Nice! Crappie pan fried in butter is the best.

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Good morning Dawn and Dave ☕☕☕ No experience with netwrap, other than watching videos.. and seen too many videos, where people don't pick the stuff up.. then wonder why they have dead critters.. Green grass and lots of it!!!

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

I have a neighbor who does that and cuts it off his spreader the following year😅.

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn how many cows has he lost??

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselinHe regularly loses cows and can never figure out why.

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn good example of why some people shouldn't have animals.. or need to be educated anyway.. tell them why.. have them cut open the rumen of the next one. I'll bet it's full of netwrap.

[@joedoak3478]

I would move my spacers and hair pin and when it would do that check right away to see if you are wrapping up on your steal roller check for burs or even a thin stem under round. Stockon roller

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

I’ll do that thanks.

[@farawayfarm2520]

I figured I'd watch your video while waiting for this heavy dew to go away. Maybe I should be happy with my twine baler. I might not have the patience for net wrap.

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

I love it when it works.

[@farawayfarm2520]

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn It would be nice for my wrapped bales. The rain is on us now.

[@HumbleHaymakers]

Dang - that baler otherwise makes a nice bale and really eats the hay. Is there a point in the day - if the netwrap just won’t apply correctly, you’d switch over to twine to finish out the day? Good video…👍

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

I would but netwrap is just so much faster and neighbor Dave sells his half of the hay and can sell netwrap bales for more money.

[@jessejanes1865]

I would adjust the duck bill baffle

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

@@jessejanes1865 I checked the clearance and it’s at spec. Not even dusty inside.

[@tractortalkwithgary1271]

Full watch Dave

[@22gonefishing]

Wondering if you can attach your camera to the baler so you can get a close up when it's wrapping, you might see whats going on with the netwrap? Or try making the bale just a little smaller to see if that helps since it happens with the heavy hay. Just something to think about. Good luck.

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

Both good ideas; thanks.

[@pinesedgefarm1155]

Have you checked the sensors in the baler? Maybe making the bales too big? Mud on the rollers? If none of that, I'd say switch netwrap brand.

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

@@pinesedgefarm1155 no mud but I haven’t checked the sensors. Not sure how. I could set bale size slightly smaller….

[@pinesedgefarm1155]

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn if the bale chamber is too full that can cause issues.

[@piperdoug428]

Are you noticing any netwrap on the rollers? check the belt laces for ragged connections as they can grab the wrap as it comes out and pull it off the bale as it wraps

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

None. Just recurring uneven application when the net roll gets low and we’re baling heavy windrows.

[@pagrainfarmer]

I'm sorry I can't be of any help. I do have a round baler, but it's an older Gehl 1310 and only used twine, so I have no experience with netwrap. However, you seem to be getting things figured out.

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

@@pagrainfarmer Thanks Charlie. I followed detailed instructions in the book and I think I have it fixed…at least it worked for 25 bales😊.

[@bradbacklund1906]

i dont think the net is centered looks like its always the right side move clip in on right side of net shaft more right ,you could be favoring /over filling right side ,or there is debris in duck bill or wet hay/mud /dent /burr rollers on rh side .good luck

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

It’s definitely centered and no mud but I haven’t checked for a dent or burr. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@bradbacklund1906]

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn try going past what u think is center ,i have several NH items that things were not true/square/in line from the factory

[@michiganhay7844]

Always amazes me how bad the troubleshooting section of manuals are something like that should be clearly described because I’m sure it’s happened to be before

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

Mine is terrible. Like it was written in a different language.

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Hopefully you can get the netwrap issue solved!!

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

Thanks

[@farmer697]

Take the centre rake wheel off, to much product being pushed to that side.

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

@@farmer697 that’s interesting. The center wheel has a hydraulic shutoff that I could deploy keeping it up in heavy hay. Great suggestion; thanks.
