[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 1603475, member: 4674"] Okay I will try to explain. I did buy a feeler gauge that I could check the clearance with. I undone the small short chain that makes the starter roller turn. I loosened the bolts on each side of the bar and adjusted each side for a clearance of .01. Tighten the bolts and when you would spin the starter roller there was one rod that would hit. I removed enough to make at clear by grinding with a grinder. Another thing check the rubber wheels that tuck the hay in and make sure that they are barely turning in the stubble and not making any ground contact. Make sure that you are crowding the windrow to the right side and not the left side. When you crowd the left side the tucker wheels will not move the heavy windrow and the hay will have to be pulled from under the baler and onto the pickup reel. Sometimes the hay will actual be balled up behind the tucker wheels. I do not think you are having a moisture problem. For your information I also run a 5410. But that may not make me an expert.
