Pre-Operation Haybine and Tractor Check
At 1:37 in
IT JUST EXPLODED.......
What happens here
Begin by inspecting the tractor (John Deere 5065E) and haybine (New Holland 474) for any obvious issues. Ensure the tractor's grill is clean for proper airflow. Check the oil and hydraulic fluid levels on the tractor. For the haybine, visually inspect all moving parts, including the hydraulic cylinder for raising/lowering the machine, the drive gears and belts inside the covered compartments, the crimping rollers, and the cutting blades. Lubricate all universal joints and any bearings that are not sealed, and top off any necessary oil reservoirs within the haybine's mechanical components. Ensure belts are in good condition. Confirm the PTO shaft is properly connected. Finally, test the mechanism for swinging the haybine out from the tractor by pulling the designated string to ensure it functions correctly.
Goal: Conduct a thorough visual inspection of the tractor and haybine, checking fluid levels, lubricating moving parts, inspecting belts, and verifying operational mechanisms.
