Saving the Day | KUHN VB 560

We used the KUHN baler to keep making bales after the 7600 experienced hydraulic pump issues.

Summer Schedule
Our schedule may vary, but expect a new video every Wednesday. Friday, and Sunday at 11AM Central!
How Farms Work by Ryan Kuster is a KZbin channel based in rural Potosi, Wisconsin.
Our mission is to teach those who didn't grow up on a farm what the farming life is like.
These videos show the Kuster family working together raising cattle and crops. We believe everyone who wants to know more about farming should be able to share the farming experience with us and we look to educate the world on many essential agriculture topics.
How Farms Work takes place on ~1,100 acres with around 75-200 cattle at any given time. Four John Deere tractors are currently used on the farm, which are a 4020, 4640, 7600, and 8235R.

We run a 567 with just twine tie. Very impressed with the Kuhn. Pray you guy's have a safe harvest. We lost a neighbor in a PTO accident on a grain cart a couple of days ago. So please be safe and aware, A split second changed a families life for ever.

The Kuhn Orange Monster "KOM" really gobbles up that hay at 8mph!

[@SteveHolsten]

That is one fine baler!

[@jeffreyhouston2043]

We put tape over the switches when we get novice operators in our equipment until they get some seat time. Like taping up the remote for grandma so she doesn't push the wrong button, lol.

I was hoping to get footage of all 4 tractors working at once.Kudos to your mother, farm woman ROCK!!!!!

[@BradMyers]

The baler technology just seems to keep improving. It is nice when they make some of the more challenging task easier (i.e. changing out the wrap).

[@michael6036]

Teamwork makes the dream work.

[@andyb5273]

That Kuhn seems to be quite the baler. It was fun watching it work.

[@nealhadley1482]

I was reading that the best way to put up hay is chopped up and put in a silo slightly wet. It is shorter,easier to chew and if slightly wet it starts the fermentation process. But that is a bit of an expense to do silage. Right after I got out of the military,I worked a few months for a farmer. Had to go to Wyoming to dusk some ground and they were cubing the hay. Little cubes about the size of ice cubes,maybe bigger. It must not have caught on because I have never seen it since. But were a cow reaches what they eat,I don't know if the product length would be important.

[@ryandehling7110]

That baler did a wonderful job

[@jimsullivan9710]

Baler knives definitely helps waste less in cattle feeders but also great help if using tmr mixer wagon as hay already cut up. Saves huge amount of time mixing and easier on mixer wagon.

[@dennispowell1526]

Definitely some of the prettiest bales I have seen.

[@johnrenterprises2604]

Great videography and use of the drone. Kuhn should love you. I have said it before, you have a gift for this stuff. Be safe and thank you for your work both behind the camera and for your work as a farmer.

[@larrybg9293]

Good stuff Kuhn bailer a beast

[@JuffoWup78]

Travis is really starting to wish for a second 7600 along with that mower and baler isn't he. The amount of time savings you two co-oping together has got to be a god send.

[@canvids1]

The new Kuhn baler sure does a great job and makes even bales you could tell by the way the one bale rolled down the hill. You made a great demo for the Kuhn company as well. I am sure they will be happy with it.

[@ginggur17]

Both balers worked hand in hand a treat Ryan. Pleased you all got the bales completed and stored. 👍👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@countryboy675]

The 82 and the Kuhn baler great combo

[@t.s.tractorworkstrickland5828]

Love the new baler Yes I think the big tractor is Overkill. We bale with a 60 horsepower with no troubles. It never struggles at all It probably Burns 1/3 of the fuel you did. Great video thanks

[@austinjones5981]

That baler would be a nice addition to your farm.

Never thought I would see the day that the 82 was running a baler

[@markdobson8513]

I am glad that none of the bales rolled out of control and hit anything. They seemed to roll quite well. Enjoyed the video. Thanks

[@SimonKL11]

The kuhn was a pretty good time saver😉👍 it made some nice looking bales👍😁

[@spideybrent]

Hello from Moosomin, Saskatchewan, Canada great videos thanks for sharing

[@blakecollie8770]

That a big tractor for that balier

[@matthewwarfield4302]

Who needs an accumulator when they all roll down the hill...

[@tonymckeage1028]

Great Vlog, The Kuhn seems to be a great machine, reliable and efficient. I'm sure that your vlog will seel a few balers. Thanks

[@randymonninger9913]

We have dual Kuhn rake love it

[@Wizrd378]

That looks like an awesome bailer...would be a great addition to the farm.

[@jasonpitcher7158]

Yaaay. Love your channel been watching for about two years now. Miss seeing Hannah.

[@eddeetz493]

It's great to see Travis get a great harvest from the bottom land. He is due a break. I hope the excess tonnage along with premium prices double his last yers loss with profit. Kuhn will be on back order soon These hands on videos are amazing . Not tossing 50# idiot blocks is a great bonus. Not quite as bad as cleaning barns or silos.

[@IHVA-ir9gp]

Really like the side by side comparison. Provides a opportunity to see the differences and makes it easier when you are trying to make decisions on the right equipment for your operation. Nice job

[@christopherjilek5467]

Awesome drone footage of the bailing!!

Would like to see it bale corn fadder

Cool stuff for us non-farmers to see why you would use the knives or not on the baler. Thanks for explaining.

Nice bailer and some good looking hay.

[@sampornea]

I really enjoy watching your videos. The perspectives you capture and footage is incredible.

[@ohiofarmlife4020]

As always beautiful scenery down at the valley! We finished our hay a week and a half ago! You will never want to bale without duals again because they make the ride so much smoother.

[@mitchp350]

Very nice bailer, and a very big help this year with the troubles on the 76.

[@robhakeman5873]

Loved the video Ryan looks like you saved alot of time when you put net wrap on and when you kicked the bale out. All you need now is one of trailers that pickup bales 14 at a time and take them to the yard or by the road and unload them in a flash and go out and get another 14 bales. Then one man could do everything by himself or you could have 2 balers and 1 person picking up bales. Just hope you can get everything baled and then start harvest Be safe !

[@donjuan6324]

Ryan .. for future reference.. . A good problem solver to your grabbing the wrong handle Is to temporally Put something over the handle ( rubber bands, string, tape , etc.) and then you will know you grabbed the right one without even looking as you can tell by the feel of what you have over it

[@ianhaggart1438]

The year was 1864 thank you Jo for starting a great business building machinery and a thank you to all the people behind kuhn now. Great video there by the way. Hope they know how much extra sales they might get 😉.

[@smokencoin3425]

Great video on a running KUHN baler.

[@danieldzurko8053]

Thank you for the great camera angles and yes the bales looked great.

[@richdillon2157]

Baling made that simple, Makes me wish I never left the Farm.

[@VAFarmer318]

I’m really liking the cycle speed of the gate. 3x or more faster than my Deere silage special. Kuhn is making some great equipment. Just bought a new speed rake from them.

[@timmattison6553]

Great looking combination. That sure seemed to do a great job.

[@billwieland8497]

Haulin' bales.... one of the jobs I miss! Our's were folder bales though. We'd have to haul them in one by one.

Loved seeing the combo. Be nice to possibly trade the older John Deere out for a Kuhn. I’ve seen the Kuhn run a lot here in Indiana and they seem to produce a superior bale for sure.

[@piercebraatz5279]

Impressive baler and bales. Like the vids, keep it up.

Seems like a great baler. I couldnt even imagine if u were doing the Square bales yet down in the valley lol. Thanks for the video ryan great job as always and look forward for the nexrlt one.

[@dizz88lee]

Awesome!

[@ReverseProof]

That 82 is NOT overkill for that Kuhn. Only thing I would do different is take off the front set of tires.

[@benfairhall5331]

Don’t think like a 6130 or something that size would be better?

Hope the little 4 wheeled baby of Travis is not gonna be to costly to get running again.

Great video Ryan. That's the problem with weather reports nowadays, since they stopped using the sacrificial goat voodoo it's all relied on guess work.

[@MultiBoomer77]

great video thanks

[@johncolasanto605]

Awesome video.. as always, it must save wear on the tractor with not having to go from forward to reverse to eject the bails ..

[@marknewman5847]

Nice video I love seeing those tractors in the field how much faster is the kuhn gate than the John Deere's

[@manuallabor7193]

Love the videos.

[@jamiemacleod6463]

You can adjust the time from “stop” to “wrap start”. A few second delay makes it much more enjoyable to work with imo.

[@TWinkler02]

I must say, that baler looks like an amazing machine to run; the ramp seems like a better option than the conventional kicker and the fast gate open/close is amazing. Only thing I’m not too sure about is how complex the routing of that netwrap is. I feel that personally, in the heat of racing the rain I could quite easily get confused and end up taking way longer than it should. Don’t know if I could justify upgrading from my JD 568 for the higher cost. That being said, Kuhn is great. If the quality of this baler is anything like our Kuhn rotary rake, should be an amazing machine for whomever ends up owning it

[@petejones9788]

That video is going to sell a lot of them KUHN ballers.

[@teunvandeneertwegh]

Awesome video. The 82 actually seems like a good fit for the baler if the duals were off.
