I have a New Holland baler just like that Two Tone. Have you ever had trouble with the knotter Pawl rivit breaking? I replaced it only 2 years ago and it went again this year. it was the 4th time it has broke since the baler was new but it's going more often now.
No such problems here.
Been running like a sewing machine all day. Only one broken bale, being the third one from stating this morning.
All the other 2,000 or so were fine.

Just stoped for some grub. Then back out there to cart and stack them so as to be done before the thunderstorms arrive tomorrow. I’ll stop about 11.30, I think.

Gotta show these BBC guys that 12 hours a day is nothing to us!

Last week was getting a few bales done before the wet weekend, and of course you borrow a trailer and one of the tyres let's go 🤦
Tuesday the mower earned a few new conditioner flails ready to cut another 8 acres this morning. Had an unexpected 5 acre hay baling job for a neighbour this afternoon and then raked the 8 acres this evening ready for the morning

You better keep her under lock and key HC before someone tries to nick her from you!!

The nearest my wife has come to tedding on her own was when she brought my sandwiches out and put them in the tractor while I was bailing!😂
I was just thinking that if I had @Hfd Cattle and @Muddyroads wives here, together with my hard working wife I would be able to sit under a tree all day and watch the work get done.
