The bots are breaking because of the lift arm speed with heavy bales. I wouldn’t put a stronger bolt in because if it doesn’t shear there it will shear where the gears are in the center of turn table not a nice Jo’s to replace. How is the tow and fert working out. Great videos
Change the number of teeth on one or both of the cogs to get a slightly lower gear. Yes, the heavy bales are the problem. You could use a High Tensile bolt, but then something else might give.
Jealous, I do vegetable cropping in South Africa but would love to run equipment like you have and switch to cattle, our one and only heifer, Cola, could do with the company. Loving your content.
It breaks the shear bolts I think when you put a bale on and it lands on the black things either side of the bed where the bale sits, if it doesn’t sit inside the bed when it’s spinning like
Hi. Manual says not to put tougher bolt there. Bales should sping freely on table. What does not let them spin is their shape irregularities and softness. Try to tight netwrap and may be add one more layer when baling. In the end of baling try make more flat surface by driving more slowly and add speed to baler. I think simple thing as tighting netwrap will do. Also people tell to slow down lift arm. This has buttons to lift and lower just like 991 BE[R] ? Manual said table max is 30 rpm. Does yours do more? If it does you need to lower oil flow rate. On my machine there is different oil plug on oil control valve for closed center, open center and variable flow oil systems. For some need to change oil plug and adjust overpressure valve
That’s a sheer bolt it’s on all Mchale wrappers it’s a safety feature so you don’t damage the main gears in the bed usually happens with heave bales or I’d you hit bumps in the field when wrapping you can take the middle plate out of the bed and see is the other sheer bolt in there loose or worn just make sure you put in a sheer bolt or else you can do serious damage to you’re wrapper bolt also has to be very tight if there’s any play it will break easily
I think someone else has mentioned it above, but can you slow down the speed at which the bale is loaded? As it appears to put a lot of strain onto the back roller when it’s loaded.
hi can you tell me the seed mix on the herbal ley your silaging please currently we have red clover leys but looking for a herbal ley mix we can silage thanks
I only ever break the shear bolt on heavy silage bales. Never broken one on haylage bales. Decent tedder worth having is 10k, if you're only ma king bales for cattle I wouldn't bother with one
Best farming channel on TH-cam by a mile 👍🏼

Great video James 👌
Try putting a 10.9 bolt on the wrapper might help
James, have you done a review of the urea sprayer yet and I missed it? Cracking crop you have...
Love watching this i love faming
Hi James Nice one Thanks again
Was this one of the fields done with the tow and fert
Would a clamp and forage wagon be cheaper than plastic?
We had a wrapper like that and it would break every so often on the heavier bales like you say. Only thing we did differently was a stronger bolt.
Got to love a good silage video 😊
loved loved loved the video!!!!!!

Some crop! Would you not cart bales up to the yard unwrapped and wrap them at the yard?

Only asking is ur silage not to dry for wrspping ???

Interested which GoPro & drone you use please? Apologies if you've already shared.
Hey Andrew, if you look at the description under the video you will find a list of all the gear I use 👍
Great video as always keep up the great work and videos mind yourself
How many cows do have?
Hi some amount of bales I see you don’t have any crows in your field put a steel bolt in the wrapper

Always better to have more feed than less...
Slow down the loading speed of arm as it is making chain try to go backwards, plus 10.10 shire bolts good video again
300 bales
12.9 bolt will sort your problem
Sure will. Till it takes a tooth off the bevel gear! Load it slower
Do not have any problem with birds damaging the wrapped bales ? You will be sick carting bales in
Sell all your extra bales and it might help you to buy a couple more cows. Use your excess to your advantage.
