What happens here

Begin by entering the cab of your tractor. Ensure the hay baler (specifically, a New Holland 488 model is used here) is properly hitched and connected to the tractor's power take-off (PTO). Adjust any necessary controls or mirrors to have a clear view of the baler's operation. Confirm the weather conditions are suitable for baling hay, ideally sunny and dry, as highlighted by the operator.

Goal: Ready the tractor and baler for hay collection.
