In my opinion, learning the hard way was lying on my back and trying to pull the crap plug out by hand on a 95 degree day in switch grass stubble. Definitely decided that going into the windrow slow and easy until the bale core was formed was a prudent thing to do.
I saw the title, read it as, "The Return of Nick," and wasn't disappointed! At least it was a normal malfunction, and you figured out the easy way to unroll the netwrap. It's not so easy on the Deere.
NEVER use razor blades on them rollers no matter what color it is! They leave fine little bers on the rollers (steel and rubber) and them little bers will catch the net wrap and back wrap it. Use a scissors to cut the net wrap!! And yes baby power body power does work on the rollers, help with the static and the net will slide threw the rollers better!!
got a krone chain baler sitting in the barn right now with net wrapped around the rollers. I'm gonna try your method to unwrap it. Sure looks a lot easier than trying to cut all that stuff off the rollers! What a pain!
@@boehmfarm4276 It was the net wrap system. I just went out and rolled the net wrap roll backwards and it all came off the net wrap rollers. And to think previously I was hanging upside down over the intake trying to cut that net wrap off of the net wrap rollers with a carpet knife! Not good for the rollers I'm sure and brutal cutting your hands on all those sharp metal projections that round balers have. Thanks man!!!! I don't know why I didn't think of this myself.
Well I found out yesterday that my knife is completely worn out and you can't buy a new one from new holland. It's possible to sharpen it. But somehow I figured out yesterday that if I put the tractor to a very slow Idle before I engage the wrap it doesn't mess up and wrap the rollers. I did 25 bales yesterday after I started doing the slow idle thing with no issues. The dealer told me to put more tension on the Bundle of wrap and check the rollers for burs. I also believe it is necessary to keep the knife very sharp. I only messed up one bale because instead of cutting the net it rips the net and the first turn on the bale looks like a ripped stocking and I panicked thinking that part of the roll wrapped on the feed roller. I stopped and ejected the bale without having enough wrap on it. To sum it up I think proper tension and a good knife will fix the issue. The baler is new to me and I have only used it two days. Thanks for Taking the time to make helpful videos, if I find aftermarket parts I will share the info.
I enjoy your videos making hay. Quick question about the net wrap on your 848. I have an opportunity to buy an 848 but it's a twine tie. Can I add that option now or does it have to come that way when purchased new?
I don't know if new parts are available to change it over. I haven't looked at availability for net parts in yards, might be hard to find. It's either net or twine. Can't do both.
What is Nicks job title? Friend? Paid labor? Relative? Why is he in some videos and then gone for a while? I've been watching your channel now for a while...and can't figure out where he fits in...lol!
@@boehmfarm4276 I understand if your selling but you said y’all keep most of the round bales. The more in a roll the less you messing around with moving and if you are selling you just charge more. I pay 35 for 4x5s that weigh roughly 900 lbs and are net rapped
@@joeydalia2572 Too many frugal folks around to charge more for more hay. I'll have to make a video feeding hay, the 4x4s fit it hay feeders better too.
I agree in theory, but any operator worth a damn wouldn't take that deal. Mainly because most people who threaten that are cheap and cut corners on maintenance and then want to blame the operator if anything happens.
Love the channel man! I’m not a farmer myself, but someday I’d like to farm 10 acres or so with my wife and two daughters. I take a lot of inspiration from your channel, because I play farming simulator 19 and have been working on a realistic gaming series for RUclips. Check it out sometime!

From an old man who spent his childhood summers on his grandparents farm...... Thank you for the videos and be safe!
I didn't realize your pickup header was so wide with the augers, I really like that design! I bet its better than gathering wheels

I’m glad no humans were injured in this accident, stay safe and keep well Jacob!
Looks like Nick is doin a good job, gives you time to film.
Hello looks like Nick knows how make good bales. Have a good day.
Nick sneezing was hilarious…I can hear my father sneezing in the field when he is mowing hay…makes me laugh…

This is for the net system. If the bale forming rolls are wrapped, it won't work unless they turn freely.

2:44 Bless you
I worked for a guy that said he could put anyone in the tractor and get field work done that cost him a $1000.00 clutch
You need a draw bar flap so it don't bunch up

I imagine it's sharpenable. Probably could use a handheld knife sharpener on it.
I reckon I know now what NOT to do if I get the opportunity to run this thing. Though I've never net-wrapped bales.
Make sure every roller that the net goes by is clean, smooth and rolls good with no cuts or bers on them!!
burrs... OL J R :)
Think you've got a blurred bit on the lens again. 🤔😉🙄. Great job on the vid. Good work in the field👍 stay safe 🏴
There's a permanent scratch. With some oil or wax, it gets less bad.
@@boehmfarm4276 that's a bugger🙄 maybe some whisky might help 🤔😳😜 but that would explain it. I'm worse with oily finger marks 🤣. All the best. 👍
make a crank handle for the net wrap holder
Great awesome video Jacob , little late with hay ? Lol , you don’t have help with small square this year ? I would be doing round with everything
This field was dropped on me late. $quares are where it's at. Rounds are for giving away weeds.

no free advertising, except for john deere and New Holland, and other equipment :D
Uneventful can be a very good thing.
What happened to Brad keep up the great videos
He's driving truck now.
Have you came up with a solution for the net wrap rolling around the rollers
Other than stopping the wind, not really.
I think every farm has a nick 🙈🙉🙊
What is Nicks job title? Friend? Paid labor? Relative? Why is he in some videos and then gone for a while? I've been watching your channel now for a while...and can't figure out where he fits in...lol!
Nick is not related. He is not paid. He just shows up wanting to drive tractor. Mostly, I try not film him.
After watching your channel for years I still not know Nick is, a brother, family or employer at the farm?
Nick is not related or hired, he just appears....
He's kind of like skunk smell, he just pops up once in awhile. 😆 He can break an anvil with a Q tip 😆
Once in a while??? Try daily.
@@boehmfarm4276 Your lucky J B I think Nick is friggin hilarious 😂
Why don’t you just make a 4x5 rolls since the baler can?
No point in giving away more hay than necessary.

I think it’s time for a new camera or somehow fix that blurry spot on the one you use lol just a friendly suggestion
I need a new one. It suffered some damage after running it through the picker last year.
Progressive .. no Geico 🤣
Nick the sneezer
👍👌🇨🇦❤
Next time let Nick crawl in there and U stand there and video. LOL
Best threat to any operator is make them pay for any repair parts and also the labor to fix what they break...
I agree in theory, but any operator worth a damn wouldn't take that deal. Mainly because most people who threaten that are cheap and cut corners on maintenance and then want to blame the operator if anything happens.
I wouldn't let him run anything. He's an accident waitin to happen.
Yep
