I know one reason some people have the older John Deer combines cut wheat for baling is they do not grind it like the rotary combines do. I put up straw for a cousin one time and we had to separate the straw. The rotary straw was for landscapers and the conventional straw was for horses and cattle since it had less fines to cause sinus issues. Like the rotary straw has. Hope you and your family has a safe and productive harvest. A few have started shelling corn in Greene County Illinois.
You need to move the 3rd link pin on the tractor to the lower hole. Then it will tilt the bale fork's up when it goes up. And it looks like you need to move the 2 3point arms down so it lowers more. You could add a Bale spear at the top by the third link. The center of your bales could be a soft center bale.
We made a cylinder to use on our top link but you can also buy them with ball ends. We had the same problem with our 75C that we soved with a cylinder so it will tip the bale towards the tractor. Extend to spear in and retract when you raise.
I like your video as a cattle rancher Google apache hay equipment that whole Spear is totally wrong. We have 3 of them, they picked up bale movers never get off the tractor.
Take the quick hitch off and hook your implements up direct and that will get rid of your problems. Good thing you are a engineer cause you would never make it as a farmer.
You can probably buy 3 bushings for the going from class one two pins that if they are long enough. enough they will fill the gap. A third spike on the center member would solve bale slant problem
Ditch the quick hitch, get cat II hook lift arm's. As factory fitted to every tractor not in the state's. Put spikes throu bale lower! Hydraulic top link. Jeez! The euro crew been doing it for years. Same here in New Zealand. Yet we get told don't know what we doing 🤷🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️👎🏻
14:50 the ''SLOP form side to side'' SHOULD melo out after you do the PIN SIZEING THINGIE to firm up the 3point.... THEORYORIETAKALLY LOL will it be able to adjust enuf to pull it up at more of an angle??? or are you gunna have to get a SHORTER TOP ARM??? or some thing...???
spoosed to be part of the PREFLIGHT CHECK right??? ....check tired... tires... fluids... key in hand... IS DRIVING SAFE (windows can you SEE ??? IF NO it = NOT SAFE ...if NOT SAFE = STOP & FIX
@HartungFamilyFarms This year's stinks I wasn't able to make it to half century of progress and and short handed at work so not able to go to Farm Progress either. I would have enjoyed meeting you and so many other people I only get see on RU-vid. Hope have a blast while you are there. You should try to get a tour of the ADM ethanol plant next door, it's one of the largest in the world.
What's up with your truck not starting? Is that a gasoline or diesel? How long have you had that New Holland tractor? The tires look new... are u happy with it? U don't get to use /test/evaluate equipment from JD? You think you would leave JD and work full-time at the farm or fucking way in he'll that would ever happen.
The old term is a puppy f****** a football 🏈 and that's basically what you're doing get the job done and forget about this goddamn s*** on the social media
