These folks telling you to cut links out don't know what they are talking about. The chain is stretched which changes the pitch of the chain. This is what wears out your sprockets. It's like running a #60 chain on a #50 sprocket. The sprocket tooth will catch the chain bushing in the center and wear the sprocket teeth out. The more it wears the faster it wears.

@TheNastyBastard 6 лет назад

Replace the chain !! IF your tensioner is all the way in your at the end of the chains life.... you should have 50% of thread left on the adjustment thread/bolt.

@pcguysoffgridcabin 6 лет назад

Yeah I was thinking that too

@bigbossman3987 3 года назад

Replacing the chain is the quick simple fix, but more than likely

@steves5346 6 лет назад

josh i suspect that chain is stretched out and cutting a coupla links out will just wear your sprockets faster. new chain is the way i say.

@ivyandroses4373 6 лет назад

Sorry for the loss of your friend. Your tribute to him will be loving the land as much as he did.

@amossnowdaharleyman9179 6 лет назад

Chain wore out and stretched. Replace. Pulling links is a quick fix and not a permanent fix for a wore out and stretched chain. Geometry will be wrong and you will wear sprockets.

@augustreil 6 лет назад

Wow Josh, Everyone wants you to spend all kinds of money ! Get a new master link, cut some links out, which can be easily done in the field with a cordless grinder, adjust the tension and finish the baling like you intended to. When your all done and it's over then make the major repairs !

@PlasticBaby21 3 года назад

Great videos. Learning a lot. That's what life is, you live and you learn.

@DiannaSharps 6 лет назад

Josh, isn't 20 bucks a bail better than 0? Letting it rot in the field seems counter to your goals. I understand you plan to have cattle eventually and bailing won't be such an issue. Just a dumb question I know just thought I'd ask. Keep up the good work and the great videos!

@michellemhessman4364 2 года назад

@farmingforfunandprofit940 6 лет назад

Taking out one link will shorten a chain considerably..... one link and install what they call an offset link...Never posessed a chain breaker... use a chisel

I'm a city girl who now lives on 2 acres in the country in southern WI. I'm surrounded by farms. I have learned so much from watching your videos. I see this type of machinery in the fields across the road but have never been able to see how it really works. Thank you for educating me!

@Rdrake1413 6 лет назад

Adjust the tensioner back out so you will have some adjustment as the chain stretches. Then take out the links you need.

@Matthew37128 6 лет назад

Hey Josh, I commented on a video of yours before about your flooding issue. You mentioned while talking about your future home having to put in massive pipes. Look into a heavy timber bridge. We had the same issue on the base I'm stationed at in TN with flood waters knocking out three side by side 24" pipes. We replaced these with a wider, deeper span and a heavy timber bridge. It solved the whole problem. The water was no longer restricted, and the bridge is capable of holding the weight of a mobile Howitzer (Paladin Gun). I'm telling you, that would save you time, money, and headaches. I need to get footage of it for you the next time we get heavy rains. The culverts that still exist are still backing up, but the way we built the bridge, it's almost like the abutments shoot the water under the bridge. No more problems. BTW, love the videos, keep up the good work, and if you need any advice on that bridge, I'm here to help. Matt, TN Seabee

@jamesstepp9982 6 лет назад

Chain looks like 530 to me,Browning Industrial isn't too expensive,or you could try Diamond "O ring" motorcycle chain-more money but it'll last a LONG time/

@troyroe6021 4 года назад

Hello I’m guessing that you could get some chain guides, tracks, the John Deere bailer that I’ve used had such.

@markgamble8377 6 лет назад

Yup.new suprise. I have a 435 jd round.think its a 89 or 90. Used to use it alot till 5 years ago.sold cows.not as much money in round as sm sq. Used to make 4×6. Cut down to 4×5 to sell. Noticed my chain kinda loose.had baler 24 years.gess it deserves a new chain before that happens to mine. Hint.carry a fire extingusher on baler.had a roll bering go and set bale on fire.ejected bale saved baler but set windrow on fire. Didnt have fire extingsher but did stomp out. Barley.i was lucky

@kenwillis8487 6 лет назад

@stoney ridge farmer if the surplus hay is worth $20.00 a bale and yer not going to use em anyway. Why not sell em instead of wasting em? In a way yer throwin money away are you not? I understand it costs more to bale then $20.00 a bale but even if yall only recoup half yer cost, yer still bailing it anyways. Maybe there’s more logic I’m missing, cause the way I see it money is money. May not be the amount yall calculated per bale to make money selling it but if y’all let it rot instead of using or selling yer throwing money away!! Just my two cents keep up the good work!! Ps I grew up on a farm and spent every summer bailing hay and selling hay. Some years we took a loss but making $30,000 instead of $45000 was always better then throwing $45,000 away cause at the end of the year emery lil bit counts who knows maybe you could recoup yer fuel costs!!

@mapleridgefarms6075 6 лет назад

We do the same with our hay fields currently as we don't have any livestock to feed and the hay price is super cheap so unless another farmer needs it we just cut our fields to add the mulch back to the ground and keep the pressure on the weeds.....looks good Josh!

@rexoliver7780 5 лет назад

The chain in your bailer is like the coil tune drive train in our GE transmitters.When the chain goes slack in these-jackscrews break along with the chain.And all of this is in a hard to reach area-and to add to the fun the tune capacitor drive chains are next to the coil tub drive chains.Tx is over 50 yrs old!!!The fun of short wave broadcast!

@johnnyholland8765 6 лет назад

I know you have heard it all before but it is all part of farming. You take it good and bad. You will have a beautiful location for a homeplace. Pick it wisely cause you will get only one chance. As far as your hearing you need to protect it. I was just fitted with hearing aids after many years of not doing so. $ 5000.00 worth to be exact so protect what you have left. Ditto on the chain advise.......

@bgray1009 6 лет назад

even $20 is expensive for hay here for your size they are £12 approximately $15 and the price does vary but only by a few £

@rontucker1086 6 лет назад

Well Josh, at least the pin sheared before tearing up your machine. Chain is a pretty cheap fix compared to replaced machines. Down time costs money as well. I'm sorry to hear about your friend. Take care!

@jalopyjoe4483 6 лет назад

If it was easy, everybody and their sister would be doing it. Patience is a virtue, and equipment breakdown is to be expected, no matter how well maintained. Other words, sh!t happens, as Forrest Gump said.

@Theblindfarmer 6 лет назад

FYI if you didn’t know that will get you out of a lunch when you shear a pin take the bottom half with the nut and place it in the top like putting in a new sheet bolt it will be long enough to go through to get you back to bailing if you run out of Lin’s I’ve had to do that a time or 2

@royhubbard6579 6 лет назад

@wickedcoyote271 6 лет назад

Silly city folk question. Why dedicate so much land to hay field if it’s more than you can use or sell? Why not grow other crops there? Also, you are already bailing the hay, so it’s costing you money weather you sell it or not. Why not get a little money for it if you can? $20>0...

On the Kubota, I suspect that the hose assembly has internal crack at 90 degree bend. Usually the steel fitting don't go bad.

@generalrepair8731 6 лет назад

Josh, All of a sudden slack in the chain sounds like a bearing let go ! Check your shaft for a play ! Where has Josh been MIA ? General repair woooooooo

@donaldthomas5852 3 года назад

That's not a wasted bale, you can unroll it and bale it again. That's what I do. That's one reason I leave the loader on my tractor while baling. You can use you loader to help you unroll the bale of hay. On hills if a bale rolls into your way you can move it quickly and just keep on baling.

@floydfarms1578 6 лет назад

Popping a link out is just a day fix, need to replace the whole chain before next baling job. As others have said, if you don't replace the chain your shortened chain will cause bad wear on the sprocket and cost more money long term. Not sure if the tensioner spring needs to be replaced or not though.

@frankdeegan8974 4 года назад

I don't want to sound like a troll but the (hay) after getting and or staying wet for this long would best be described as bedding. You can't just leave it lay so bale it and hope it has a few leaves left for some nutritional value. Good luck

@justadumbfarmer4744 6 лет назад

Not sure why you want to bale hay if your not going to sell it. Wear and tear = money. Bush hog that hay into the ground. Save time and money. That hay is practically no good for feed. Cut your losses.

@ohhpaul7364 6 лет назад

Like the other people have said, the bolt on the chain tensioner is all the way in, either the spring has gone bad or you need a new chain. Easy way to check the spring is to take the chain off and see how far you can move the tensioner sprocket towards the spring, if there is a bunch of slack left after the spring is fully relaxed, then the spring is probably needing replaced. You can probably tell if the chain is stretched once you get the master link to the store and it will not match the chains at the store, pins are farther apart; perhaps easier if you take the entire chain.

@hosiercraft9675 5 лет назад

Looks like #50 chain. Probably stretched

Not cool huh

@diamonddog257 5 лет назад

good drama so far ; ... i won't try to tell you , there is a imlement called a tedder'', that you could use at night, if you have to get it dried and baled the next day........

@ooa9123 4 года назад

If u ever stop the baler with anything over a half roll just kick it out b 4 u try to restart it's just hard on your pto clutch & I just use broke rake teeth as shear pins doing hay is hard work

@busterv333 6 лет назад

New chain never take links out old chain replace chain with new one you only going wear sprockets out by taking links out to tighten chain.

@craigherriman236 4 года назад

Seems that the tensioner is max out , Yes take links out , seems that’s what happen with used equipment. Yes new equipment is very expensive.

@jamesgeasley4732 4 года назад

Go buy new chain ur old is stretched. Just gonna. Driveu nuts. Long run ull save time. Plus old chain. Will wear ur sprokets out.

@StoneyRidgeFarmer 4 года назад

I made it easy....I sold off the haymaking equipment for now and we'll buy our hay since it's cheaper to buy than it is to bale around here! $20 per round bale!

@nashguy207 6 лет назад

What a shame you should send that hay to Mike. OWL If it wasn't so expensive to ship it to him.

@petermathwig8969 6 лет назад

Sorry, also with a warn out chain it bill want to climb up the teeth and will most likely jump off since all the wear is stretch out it wont sit correctly.

@theresathreadgill1386 6 лет назад

Wish it was feasible to send to TX and Wyoming! Lots of ranchers there could really use it!

@DiannaSharps 6 лет назад

Why isn't it? What does a bail go for in TX or Wy? I know it's a dumb question I'm no farmer.

@floydfarms1578 6 лет назад

It isn't the cost of the bale, it's the cost of transport. Transport costs about $3-5 a loaded mile so to go 1,000 miles to Wyoming would cost $3,000 plus the price of the hay as well.

@farmall1farmall132 6 лет назад

I would suggest getting a Tedder v rakes don't flip hay over the best since they drag hay together you still have alot of moisture in the hay. A old example NH 256 would be best thing to use besides a Tedder. Good video I'd bale every bale I could I try to keep few years worth of hay in case of drought

@shartne 6 лет назад

The hay will be molded it is no good a loss. It will kill the animals especially horses. Are you going to build a 30,000 dollar bridge to get to your home? Maybe some giant culverts and dirt would be cheaper. Maybe the bail is too heavy from moisture is why the sheer pin is breaking? Oh dah maybe its the chain LOL. I see. get use to hay equipment breaking that is the way it is.

@johnnyturbo8460 5 лет назад

@farmingforfunandprofit940 6 лет назад

Hate to say it but but after two weeks it will be about as good as pine straw........We couldn't get about 30 acres this year because of 4 days of daily rain,,, baled it to get it off the field.... gave it away... charged $10,00 a bale to haul it to farmer.....Good luck

@chrismills2125 6 лет назад

Was cutting hay yesterday with two long sleeve shirts and my winter jacket, it was about 50 degrees. It's curing out pretty good. This has been the worst year to get hay up that's for sure. Could be worse though, it could snow on it. I've baled hay with snow on it before.

Hey brother, said to myself i would never sub to any ones channel, but i did yours! Is it possible for you to do a vid series from when to cut all the way to how to store your finished bales? Im just starting out. Thanks!

@StoneyRidgeFarmer 4 года назад

Yep...I've done it..there is a playlist for "hay" on my channel..Welcome to the channel...oh..and subscribing just makes it easier to follow someone you like on youtube....it's just a matter of convenience in my opinion. I'd love to have ya back!

@JRS2248 4 года назад

From my experience of 72 years; maintenance is more than greasing and cleaning. Its replacing chains sprockets bearings at intervals. I know this might seem crazy ; don't fix unless broken but when you look at the long run its cheaper. What if you had rain on your heals and you had to get it bailed and stored. This could of cost you allot. Just saying. Love the videos.

@davidmcclellan2786 4 года назад

@jacobneher7409 6 лет назад

I’ve had the same problem with the weather here. I’m in Southside Va, about 2 hours from you so I feel you on the wet hay season. Working a full time job and a wet hay season has left me with hay I still haven’t cut yet. What you said couldn’t be more true, those things always happen when you’re on a tight schedule or in a hurry. I have the same chain issue with my hay bine if the hay has gotten thick. Love the channel and keep up the good work! You’re a good inspiration for me to keep going and getting my farm going. Good luck and looking forward to your new videos!

@ohiofarmer254 6 лет назад

I'm glad that i'm not the only one fight with equipment issues and weather, I would rather have your problem though, as we had to stop farming briefly to dig around the house because the drain tile decided to collapse causing water to pool around the foundation. In the midst of my excavation i lost the hydraulic pump on my tractor

I've had the worktunes for about a year now, I can tell you they work great for on the tractor and the battery life should be good. In your case I'd guess every 2 long jobs(all day) you will need to charge them just so they don't die in the field. But I highly recommend them.

@mikeapenhorst7706 2 года назад

Wheel rakes are the greatest had one for over 20 yrs

@petermathwig8969 6 лет назад

Josh, Yes he’s right, the chain may be stretched a bit, but the sprockets are set at a certain pitch putting a warn out chain on will wear your sprockets out faster. I was a gear cutter for years and i have made many sprockets. If the chain has the right number of links and your tensioner is at it’s limit, your chain is in need of replacement. Sorry, i know it’s one more thing.
