Small round baler

I inherited an AC small round baler, I think they were called (rotabaler). I have another for parts.
I was told by the neighbor that it didn't always kick out all the bales the last time it was in use. I have an operator manual, but haven't had time to check it out. Is anybody familiar enough with this baler to suggest what should be repaired or adjusted?
There seems to be a lot of interest lately in leaving the small round bales in the field to use for forage when the pasture is covered by snow. Since I am an absent land owner, this might be a way to feed my cattle with less driving.

Live power is not nessary think about it would you want to set there holding the clucth in or flip it out of gear let clucth out and rest your leg. I bale using a m farmall i sure wouldn,t want to hold clucth in all that time. Unless you have a wd or wd 45 allis thiis is what you would do. Or older jd with hand clucth and live power. Just my thoughts.

make ur windrows as wide as the throat--if not they will not be round like bed roll they will be more like a ball. not good--also if the hay is too wet, it wont kick out--dont ask me why--but check with ur older neighbors, great little machine--but u need something with live power or a hand clutch to run it.

Check the heavy springs in back of the baler to see if they are hooked. Was useing my last night had nut come off a peice up in the top of the machine it was a curved piece kinda like a boomarang. Wouldn,t kick bales out had a hard time putting it back. Something has to be broken or out of adjustment but can say without seeing it what is wrong. most likly is something simple. And yes this is good way to feed cattle in the winter. You won,t know it,s there next spring.
