picked this up at auction. supposedly only has 5lk bales through it total.. and it looks that way..
baled some hay.. started at the edge, some a little damp spots.. made about 5 or 6 bales good... then it plugged to all h3ll. ended up finishing with another baler.
fast forward 2 weeks.. got it all unplugged, neighbor wanted me to bale some very dry hay that'd been sitting out for a week. baled it for bedding and it baled 20+ bales no problem.
now another couple weeks later I'm trying to bale some 2nd cutting. little wet around the edge lines but 90% dry. Plugged instantly. Spent an hour out in 90+ degree weather unplugging it.. got it all free. started out again and boom.. plugged instantly.
when it starts to plug a chain will start hopping. The tensioner was loose so I tightened it up. It stopped jumping but wouldn't clear the jam.
Anything I can do? I tried to starting the bale as fast as a turtle walks and it still plugged.
