Prepping for the fall hay season! Old equipment ....will it hold up?

What happens here

The farmer performs a quick test run of the haybine's internal mechanisms, confirming that they spin smoothly when the tractor's PTO is engaged. He notes that the tire on the haybine needs to be fully inflated the next morning. He reiterates the importance of lubrication for all equipment and states that the plan for the following days involves cutting the hay, allowing it to dry, then raking it up, and finally baling it. He emphasizes that old equipment requires extra attention and regular maintenance.

Goal: Verify haybine functionality and outline subsequent haying stages.
