BALING AND RAKING HAY....ENDS IN TRAGEDY!! BALER CATCHES FIRE!
What happens here
After raking the hay, the next day begins with preparing the baler. The presenter introduces a John Deere 385 baler. He explains that for this baler, four hydraulic lines need to be connected to the tractor. Two hydraulic lines connect to the rear remote ports on the tractor, and two additional lines, requiring extensions, connect to the front loader hydraulic ports on the tractor. He also highlights the importance of the PTO shaft and other mechanical components that drive the baler's internal mechanisms.
Goal: Introduce and prepare the round baler for operation by connecting necessary components.
