Nice video and equipment. It would really suck to have to stop so often but that's the way it was. Ryan

Nice properly sized windrows. What's the feeder roller thing at the top of the conveyor, that helps keep the hay down low as it enters the baling chamber? I'm not sure I've noticed that on other Rotobalers. Was it special equipment?

I'm not sure if that roller is just on the white tops or what. I have had it in hay that it definitely helps push down the windrow. Those windrows are two 16 footers 'V" raked together. Never ceases to amaze me, the amount of hay that those roto baler will eat. Thanks for looking! Darrel |

Take that beater out so you can see the string start to wrap the press roller. Older ones don't have it and they worked fine.
Also baies look loose like key may be sheared in brake or need tightened down. MACK

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

We purposely don't want them any heavier or more tight than what they are. They are for our own use, they roll out nicely, and son's girlfriend can handle them if she ever needs to. And with the weight that they are, one bale is about right to feed one cow for one day. Thanks for checking out the video and for the input though. Darrel |

Those Roto Balers put up the best quality hay of any baler,no beating and chopping the hay like a square baler.My dad baled with one hooked to a B until he bought the WD45.
