You should be running the tractor almost wide open while baling. The baler is designed to preform better at higher RPMs. If you haven't found out yet it makes nicer bales at higher RPMs to. We have a similar baler and we had to find many things out the hard way. Remember high RPMs while baling almost wide open on the tractor.

Looks like you need to either sharpen your knives or shim them out so they cut the hay better and your bales wont stick together. you may also need to adjust your plunger closer to your stationary knife.. I AM AN 82 YEAR OLD FARMER THAT HAS BALED MANY A BALE OF HAY, NOT A NOVICE TELLING YOU WHAT TO DO. I REALLY ENJOY YOU AND YOUR BROTHERS CHANNELS.

A girlfriend who isn't afraid of a little hard work. Better put a ring on it quicklike Spencer!

I honestly think every teenager should have to do this at least one summer of their life. I’ve done my fair share of it and I’m in my 30s.

When you find a woman that is willing to work that hard, that’s a real find!

Thanks for the great video! I appreciate seeing the haying :) I hope your knee surgery was successful for the long-term! I know how much it sucks not being 100% physically, and able to do the work you love to do! I hope you get better fast, though knees can be slow to heal. Thanks again, and it's great to see your loved ones pitching in around you!

Wishing you a speedy recovering Spencer

I spent 5 summers bailing behind a setup that look almost exactly like that. (Case tractor though) First year was 1972. I made $1hr. Lunch and 3 bottles of coke included. Had to hand pump the water. Arms cramped up. got poked till my forearms were raw. 3 days per cutting, 3 cuttings a summer. My first check was $31. That was big money for a 12year old in 1972. Got easier by the time I was 17. And I didn't have to ride my bike home anymore either

Been loving the content as well as the learning lessons along the way. My wife and I have been looking at land between 5-20 acres to start a hobby farm and this has been very educational for us.
