I've been running my MW 1500 round baler this
evening-- worked fine at first but the last few
bales the slip clutch kicked in when there really
didn't seem to be much hay in the baler-- about
half of what I normally put in there. It was dark
so I haven't had much chance to do a lot of
trouble shooting but of course need to get the hay
baled. Nothing in the manual about adjusting the
slip clutch-- in the past when I got too much hay
in the baler, I was able to lower the rpm and get
it to turn to put the twine on-- now the slip
clutch won't allow that. (I have a few half-bales
with no twine on them out there) Is there
possibly a way to adjust or maybe the slip clutch
is worn and I should start calling salvage yards?
We're pulling out the square baler now (for the
morning) but if anyone has some insight... Thanks
