Took my new to me NH 311 hay baler out for the first time today. Only did 80 bales. Field went from heavy to very light hay.
Had some bales that appeared to be longer on one side than another, which I believe is an issue of hay being fed into chamber properly. Most bales were good. Had a few that came out of the baler where the two ends of the bale curved up or maybe down trying to touch each other.
I may have been traveling too slow with windrows too small.
I have heard or read that some balers prefer very full windrows.
How big are your windrows and how fast do you travel with and old baler like mine?
