Baling hay has a limited window to run! Highly dense bales don't breath so speed is important to get quality feed off in a short period of time. Something to think about! To me fast is over 50 bales an hour.
My baler (built in Hungary by an Irish company) like many of the others has a plastic 'fish pond' hung on either side that serves no useful purpose other than a platform to display the maker's name in large letters. A simple guard is all that is needed preferably one that makes some attempt to keep the chains and oily bits clean.
The best bales come from consistent feed and consistent speed. Most of the time speed equals lower density and poor shape. Steady and consistent is the secret but really it comes back to the rake operator. Serve up a shitty row you will get a shitty bale!
@@YouBeenTerminated that’s good! Doing me good was my plan when I first shelled out the cash for a brand new baler. Glad you got a good one! I just hooked up my old trusty New Holland today. It won’t give me as many fits, I am sure.
Massey Ferguson is by far the best! Their track recorded is second to none and all of their equipment is overbuilt. I'm running new and old Massey's and they never quit and have never had a single problem.
I agree when it comes to square balers we had a 187 and a 139 both excellent balers. There’s better round balers out there though although the latest series reads quite impressive
The best is the one with the least amount of bales means more hay in a bale case IH is by far the best we tried them all and the small inline case IH can not be beat
