- Baled up a small round bale with the John Deere 335 and Massey Ferguson 1105 - and brought out the rain! Video shows it all...
We are a small family farm in the western mountains of Virginia. Subscribe for more farming videos - Thanks for watching!
Thank you I also have experience in hay making since 2002
Looks like it will do the job. We got 5 inches of rain here overnight! Have a great day.
That's a good plan to start with old beat up square bales. No pressure of having a field cut and letting the sky know you want hay. We only did square bales as that was the market we had, so I'd go slow like that the first time round baling too.
Been waiting to see it in action. I know it will serve you well for future endeavors on your farm.
Thx!
Good way to give it a test drive! When you actually get to baling be cautious of that quick hitch possibly getting into the drive line. I know of people tearing a driveline out with their 3 point arms. Take care.
Thx - the 1105 actually lifts the 3-pt arms and quick hitch pretty high.
Congratulations on making your first round bale! As long as you have a good sized windrow you won't have to do to much weaving side to side with that narrow pickup. That quick hitch makes me nervous though 😬
The MF 1105 actually lifts the quick hitch pretty high. Thx for watching…👍
My New Holland 654 took a little for me to get use to, a couple stumbles in the beginning. Mine was the string I used, it was called cordage, and it was difficult to get use to the tensions and adjustment of the knives. As I recall during my first 100 bales I had to get off and help hand cut the twine, cordage. After some trial and error, I found the right formula/adjustment and went to where I only had to get off half the time. The next couple of times I found out that the cordage wasn't what I wanted and went to the same type plastic twine your using. You'll figure yours out in time, just try to get all the information you can on it through a manual and watch some videos on it, that will help. I didn't have TH-cam at the time so mine was trial and error. Good luck and thanks for sharing, hope all goes well for you! Have a great day!!
Thx!
I would try installing one they do help. I replaced my twine wheels really simple to install.
Congratulations on your first round bale! If the narrow pickup becomes an issue I assume JD sells a kit to put rubber crowder wheels on it.
The kits are pretty rare. I’d probably look to a bone yard or fab up something myself. I think gathering wheels would work great with this baler. Thx for watching…👍
Once you get used to the baler and it runs ok, faster ground speed is better. Cram the hay in it. At least that’s what I do with my New Holland br770A.
