[QUOTE="Tbrake, post: 1425579, member: 22322"] Be ready to work, and have some good help. The guy we had wrap ours showed up at 9:00 in the evening, and I put the last bale on the wrapper at 3:15 in the morning. Best thing you can do is have someone hauling the bales to where they are going to be wrapped as you are baleing. Confirm with your wrapper on how big of bales he can handle. I baled everything 5x5 and they weighed right at 1 ton. One thing I wasn't considering was the extra time it took to bale. On dry hay I run 8-8.5 mph, on the wet oats I was down to 6-6.5 to get a tight bale.(jd 569) this was my first time wrapping so I don't hardly know anything. This is just what I found out to be true. It got dryer on me than I wanted, hope it will still make. [/QUOTE]
